    It is World AIDS Day next week. To mark that date this year, I’ve recorded a number of conversations with Marion Chatterley in connection with her work as Chaplain to people with HIV and Hep C in Scotland.

    Here are some of the things that Marion and I touched on this conversation:

    • Does it matter if you become HIV+ when they’ve got medicines that can keep it under control?
    • What stigma means in Scotland today
    • How young gay men are putting themselves at unnecessary risk
    • Dating apps
    • Why the church needs to talk about healthy relationships

    There will be more later in the week. Comments and questions welcome below.

    Thank you for this sermon. It further clarified several things that I feel strongly about. I too pray that we no longer hear angry drums but canticles of truth, love and peace.

  • Thank you for the votes

    My thanks to everyone who voted for this blog in the ScotBlogs awards. Apparently, I came in the top 10 in the readers nominations. (Where in the top 10, I don’t know). However, the competition was constructed around readers votes and the votes of a panel. It seems a bit like the Episcopal election –…
