For those expecting a review of the 1992 film of the same name, errr … you’re in the wrong place. It’s a Saturday night. My first born daughter is safely tucked into her bed making her way to the land of nod. I have me drink at the ready and little snack as well in […]
Read More Patriot GamesFollowing my last foray into controversial and touchy issues I thought I might as well venture further and touch on the topic of how same sex relationships are recognised. First there were Civil Partnerships and unsurprisingly and understandably there are calls for same sex partnerships to receive all the rights and benefits that heterosexual couples […]
Read More Briefly Entering And Exiting An Aspect Of The Same Sex Partnership IssueGod has a sense of humour. When I consider how things go and then take a look back and see what the fuss was about, i.e. nothing, then it shows just what a great sense of humour God has. Take yesterday, for example. You ever have one of those days where it appears as though […]
Read More God’s Sense Of HumourMy youngest child is not quite 18 months. She can walk and she can climb. (Can she ever climb!) She is not quite coherent in talking, but she can give indication noises and can utter some words. One of those words is ‘Dad’. I have two other daughters who are able to say that word […]

Before that I did a two year course at A-Level in Theology (as well as English and also Government and Politics). Before that I did a GCSE option in Religious Studies. Throughout this time moral issues and their practical and political implications […]
Read More Briefly Entering And Exiting An Aspect Of The Abortion DebateWhen God speaks, what does He mean? Not what I think He means, but what His actual meaning is and His intent, can we ever know? My brother’s spiritual journey is very different to my own, but this series is fascinating to consider. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd
Read More What Did The Authority Mean?A small tale of patience. I work in a place designed to help young people between 16 and 18 into an apprenticeship. From the time they join the programme they have two to three months to find an apprenticeship with our help. Those who are keen and job ready, however, will more or less get […]
Read More All Good Things Come To Those Who …HT: The Meta Picture Here’s something that’s always struck me as a bit bizarre. Why is death such a taboo subject? don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying we glamorise it and turn it into a celebrity issue. (Though we’ve probably done that already when you consider the deaths of celebrities.) I am saying that […]
Read More Death: It’s InevitableWhich came first, the video or the thought? Sometimes I’ll watch a video and it will inspire a blog entry. Sometimes I’ll have a stream of thought and that will inspire a blog entry for which I’ll look for any related videos. This entry was the latter. The video is fascinating though for the concepts […]
