Christians and the Conscience Clause

From Faith and Pride… Christian consciences have been a concern since the days of the New Testament. A long time ago, a wise man called Paul the Apostle gave advice to the Christians in Corinth about how to handle their consciences. “I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people—not […]

Equal marriage in Gibraltar

From Faith and Pride… I have had a letter on equal marriage published in the Gibraltar Chronicle. Although I have only lived in Gibraltar for a short time, I have been much struck by the diversity and tolerance shown here. Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Bahá’í, people of other faiths, and people of no faith all live […]

The Biblical view on being gay and a Christian

From Faith and Pride… And another letter published in the Belfast Telegraph. I take the Bible just as seriously as any other Christian from Northern Ireland. If there were really a single sound-bite verse that could prove that you cannot be gay and Christian, as Good News Messenger seems to think (Writeback, November 17), then […]

Remember, some of us are both gay and Christian

From Faith and Pride… I have had another letter on same-sex marriage published in the Belfast Telegraph. IT seems that much of the coverage of the gay marriage cake affair has portrayed it as Christians on one side and gay people on the other. It is too easy for people to forget that some of […]

This is problematic for two reasons, a secondary reason, and a fundamental reason. The secondary […]

A Time to Embrace, and a Time to Refrain from Embracing

About this time every year I tend to start thinking about my father. This is partly because it will soon be Fathers’ Day, but it is mainly because  it is coming up for the anniversary of his death. When my father was young, younger than I am now, he liked The Seekers, and at some […]

Should I try Toblerone?

As of the time of publication I have never eaten a Toblerone. Unfortunately, due to an incident involving multiple amounts of cat vomit, I have no trousers that are both clean and dry, so I can’t leave the flat. Thus I have been pondering the question should I try Toblerone? This is not a simple […]

Equal Marriage Discussion in the Belfast Telegraph

From Faith and Pride I have had a letter on equal marriage published in the Belfast Telegraph. The letter was shortened a bit for publication. The original is below. Dear Sir, With reference to Cynthia Campbell’s letter about same-sex laws (Letters, February 12), I would simply like to say that, as a practising Christian who […]

My Precious Golden Cup?

This evening I noticed that there is one verse in the Bible that I have always misread.
