Seasonal Ill-Will

Christians often claim that theirs is the religion of love, yet the Christmas message of the Archbishop of Westminster was devoted to attacking a way of expressing love; he denounced plans for gay marriage.

I'm not sure how closely faces correlate with character, but the archbishop's face suggested to me someone who has rarely felt love.

Perhaps someone should seduce him, but I hope I don't draw the short straw!!

It seems that he's swimming against the tide of public opinion.

This article suggests that the majority of members of the public polled are in favour of gay marriage.

I suspect that the church establishment are scared of losing the support of African Christians, many of whom favour the death penalty for gays.
