Today’s top religion news has been about bishops and civil partnerships. I can’t blame ecclesiastical publications and religion correspondents for this – my Twitter feed today has demonstrated that it is what church people want to read and talk about. I’m sure someone out there can explain to normal everyday people why such a thing…
The Olympic Games. An absolutely wonderful two weeks, and we were privileged to go to quite a few events. I’ve posted a set of photos from the Olympics here on Flickr, or there is a slideshow that starts here. Update: Flickr is having problems today unfortunately. Hopefully the last third of the photos (mountain biking…
Ideally this would have been posted yesterday. Originally from the Church Times, April 2010. Feel free to share and that kind of thing
Hello and Happy New Year (if indeed it is New Year where you are). Hope you are enjoying yourself this evening (if indeed it is evening where you are). If you are not enjoying yourself that much that really is ok too – most of us are only pretending (see diagram). I quite like thinking…
This is an extract from my Church Times cartoon today which makes no sense on its own, so click here without delay for the full version.
Just to say (for those who aren’t fed up of me going on about it) that I’ll be blogging from the G20 meeting in London’s Docklands over the next few days. Details here. Barring technical malfunction (not out of the question by any means) I’ll be blogging in these two places: The Church Times blog…
Blogger Maggi Dawn will be interviewing the Archbishops of Canterbury and York in Cambridge this week and is asking for questions from bloggers (and, I’m sure, blog commenters). It looks as if lots of the events are ones you can attend too if you are in the area. See also: Website for the event, ‘A…
These are just things I’ve been thinking. Other people have said them, and other people have said them better. They don’t form a coherent argument. Inevitable I find it quite amazing when doing a Google search for sharia inevitable to see how many news websites report Rowan Williams as saying this, with quote marks around…
If like me you believe that the Archbishop of Canterbury has been treated remarkably unfairly by certain sections of the media in the last few days then why not, if you are on Facebook, join this group, entitled ‘The Archbishop of Canterbury is a good man’. Let’s see whether we can get it to really…
I’m more or less ignoring the Archbishop and Sharia Law controversy. All sorts of nonsense is being spouted and you don’t need me to point to it. I find it all quite wearying if I’m to be honest. First of all, see this on the Archbishop’s own site: What did the Archbishop actually say? For…
A few weeks ago you kindly helped me with ideas for an ‘excuses for absenteeism’ cartoon. Well, here is the cartoon. It appeared in the Church Times on the 11th of January. Thanks again for all your help. Sorry to not bring you more today. I have a heavy cold and am trying to do…
You might remember the story of Tom Ambrose, the Cambridge Vicar who has been appearing before a tribunal to see whether there has been pastoral breakdown in his parish (here are some Church Times reports from last year to remind you: 1, 2). Today’s reports in the Times and Cambridge News are saying that Tom…
Don’t worry – I’m not here in person at 00.01 on January the 1st. This post is posted by the Autoblogger, specially activated ahead of time using a pulley and a very long piece of string. Anyway – Happy New Year! We are back from going to and going fro. A splendid time was had…
This comment by Craig Allison on my last Royal Mail Christmas stamps hoax post seemed worth sharing: Has anyone gone to the bother of pointing out the position and orientation of the Queen’s Profile on the 2nd Class “Madonna & Child” Stamp? Rather unusual (unique perhaps) to this stamp. The Queen’s profile is on the…
