disgraceful bigots
At the moment I'm too angry to write in a detached manner. The disgusting homophobe Stephen Green, and his revolting Christian Voice organisation caused the cancellation of a launch event for Patrick Jones' latest book. Read about it here, and I will try to blog later when I've managed to cool down.
Update Here are some further links on this story. Ironically I can't access Christian Voice's site from work, so I can't provide a link to them. If you do contact them over this then please keep it civil and factual. I would encourage you post any communications, and importantly any replies either here or in a public forum and send me the link, or add it as a comment to this post.

Comments
On the Christian Voice site there's a comment about how with the church 'drowning in oestrogen' it's time for 'Christianity with testosterone'.
often the one who shouts the loudest has the most to hide.
