Every time a form of fundamentalism arises - religious or political - there are victims whose inherent dignity and worth are denied through the abhorrent use of power.
If my approach denies the wonder, purpose, and significance of others and creation - I need to think again.
@Craig_Foster@TheMatildas Thank you! This is so true and so important. Wednesday night there were 17000 people watching a great battle between South Korea and Japan - all ages, all genders. Fantastic elite sport.
Shout out to @expedia_au while we had you “you are 0 minutes from talking to an agent” 4 times before one came on line - when the agent did he was really patient and helpful.
@monkofjustice@cath_cov I understood the proposition but don’t think it is sustained by the weight of scripture. Obedience to the law and the bearing of lawful civic burden is the responsibility of citizens.
@Prof_NickTalley Thank you. There are many things I wish I had listened to when I was younger. There are so many accessible scientific insights that encourage people to adopt new habits at any age. Thank you for your work”
Congratulations to @ric_thorpe on his election as Archbishop of Melbourne. For decades, Ric has been a driving force behind church growth in London. Since his time leading the transformation of St Paul’s Shadwell, parishes across @dioceseoflondon have benefited from his strategic drive and energy - as has the wider Church of England in his national role as Bishop of Islington in recent years.
We have so much to thank Ric for. He will be missed here, and he and Louie will leave for Melbourne with our prayers and deepest gratitude.
