  • New Statement from College of Bishops

    There’s a new statement from the College of Bishops today about same-sex marriage.

    It can, and should, be read in full – see here: College of Bishops Guidance re Marriage 2014

    I’m appalled by its contents and in particular appalled at the way the Bishops of the Scottish Episcopal Church are treating gay clergy and lay readers in the church. The homophobic bullying of candidates for ministry – ordinands and candidates for lay readership is particularly unpleasant.

    I expect I will have more to say, in many ways and in many places.

    Lovely folks! Oh, do they make rainbow collars? You would certainly look striking in it! Of course you are striking in the black and white amongst all the other colorfully attired ones!

    It was an honour to march in the light of God; an honour to be with others from St Mary’s and to be able to invite so many people to our church.

    Yes, I agree with Rosemary and Franny! It was a great morning. I wish we’d managed to make it all the way around but I think our exit was well-timed. We even managed a nap after all the excitement.

    Rating: A very last minute dash took me to the theatre last night, having won a pair of tickets on twitter earlier in the afternoon. (I’m fast becoming fixed in my opinion that theatre and opera should, like the NHS, be free at the point of delivery). The dash was rewarded with an evening of…
