  • Statement on the Christchurch Terror Attacks Against Muslims

    Glasgow in Scotland and Christchurch in New Zealand are linked by the fact that each contains a cathedral built to an identical design.

    Christ Church Cathedral and St Mary’s Cathedral, Glasgow were built to identical plans.

    Christian hearts and Muslim hearts are made to the same design as one another. Today we weep for all those who are victims of terror and intimidation.

    Sadly, we are joined together in being broken-hearted at the news of the callous attacks against Muslim communities in Christ Church.

    Christians follow teachings which encourage them to welcome strangers. There is no anti-immigrant rhetoric that can be called Christian.

    Any attack on people at worship diminishes us all.
    Any attack on people at worship is an attack on civilization.
    Any attack on people because they are of the Muslim faith is utterly wrong.

    My love and prayers go to the Muslim communities directly affected by this tragedy and to our own Muslim friends in Glasgow.

    There is only one God and the God whom we all worship has compassion on all who mourn.

    And this is all in Maryhill? There will be great wailing and gnashing of teeth in Newton Mearns and Giffnock when the news gets out..

      Quail here too. Quail eggs from Waitrose though, not yet Lidl.

    West Enders eat moose. South Siders eat Wholefoods. I know where I’d rather be.

      I’m not at all sure that any shop selling a few nuts and bits and bobs of fresh veg on either side of the river can be as impressive as Moose in Maryhill.

    Does the Maryhill Lidl also offer Canadian Lobster? Not that I am bragging but the needy of the Rubarb Triangle need some joy in their lives and our Lidl is meeting this need

    Yes, lobster is on offer in Maryhill.

    I choose not to crow about lobster for it comes from the sea and consequently should not be eaten.

      The kashrut/OT problem is the lack of fins and scales, not the sea per se.

When asked why the Church of England could not move forward on affirming marriage as an option for same-sex couples, the Archbishop spoke of standing at a mass grave in…

  • You condemn it, Archbishop

    It is often noted that the Scottish Episcopal Church is very much in favour of the Anglican Communion. What is noted in public slightly less often but which is no less important to remember, is that it is not in favour of the Anglican Communion at any cost. Our dismissal of the Anglican Covenant showed…
