Thought for the Day as propaganda

Adelphoi,

I got this message from a member of the General Synod of the C of E today. The Thought for the Day is meant to be devotional! But the Bishop used it for propaganda.


Friday morning 20th

Did you hear the Bishop of Oxford's 'Thought for the Day' on Radio 4 this morning? It amounted to moral blackmail, in my view, and neatly conflated the distinct issues of sexual leanings and sexual practice.

You can find the text of the talk at:

The Rev'd Dr. Peter Toon M.A., D.Phil. (Oxon.)
