• It isn’t just Scotland, you know

    It isn’t just Scotland where there are people getting excited about the possibility of marriage law being changed to be more equitable you know.

    Here’s a video of the Dean of St Alban’s speaking out for the cause down in Englandshire.

    Rather well, he does it too, I think.

    Now, when did you last hear anyone else be as articulate, sensible and godly in less than three minutes?

    ‘breaking open the same word of God and finding it feeds us all according to our earthly needs and god given personalities’.

    Ought to be emblazoned over the door of every church.

    Azrael – is that not the named fourth great archangel?

      Oh, I knew someone was going to get picky about other Archangels.

      I deliberately said something about them being named in the bible. Raphael sneaks in because of Tobit.

      I think if you want to bicker you’ve a better case with Uriel than Azrael.

      Azrael is better know in Islam and Sikhism (oddly) than in Christianity. Uriel meanwhile gets a singsong in the Creation. However, Raphael, Gabriel and Michael have got a bit more of a secure biblical foundation.
