📉💷 ‘Ruthless’ action to make the C of E fit for the 21st century should include a reduction in the number of dioceses and diocesan bishops to 30, cuts to diocesan staff, and giving deaneries control of budgets and clergy-deployment decisions. #ChurchNews churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2…

If we see the world again with the compassion of a child, we will understand that all animals deserve affection and respect, not just the ones living in our homes. 💚🐷 🐷 Find out more about pigs here: HiddenLivesOfAnimals.com 🎨 @teamveganfta

Rabbi Jonathan Romain puts his finger on it. Our neighbours recognise love, fidelity and commitment. The Church of England keeps finding reasons to withhold its blessing. From a parish in Kilburn, this looks painfully clear: the people whose lives we debate are our neighbours, our friends, our families. Their love is real. So is the hurt we cause. How credible is our claim to be the established Church of England when we struggle to honour the love of the people we exist to serve? Establishment carries public responsibility. If the Church will not dismantle its own discrimination, Parliament must confront whether it should continue to enjoy the privileges of establishment. We cannot keep asking the nation to recognise our special place while refusing to recognise the equal dignity of its people.
When a lesbian wedding takes place in The Archers on BBC Radio 4, as it did last night, then you know that 'Middle England' accepts it as normative....and concentrates on the values of love & commitment rather than the shock horror of it being between two women. Mazeltov!

55,000 people ran the Chicago marathon. For every person who ran, at least two people said to them, "26 miles? I don't even like to drive that far!" = 110,000 times that comment was made yesterday

"Pro-life" politicians supporting the livestreaming of an execution are nothing of the sort - they are barbaric
