Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs Canterbury Fails
Church of England revs with a difference Jamie Franklin, Thomas Pelham, and Daniel French get together to review this week's biggest talking points. This time:
- The Canterbury Cathedral rave in the nave causes widespread outrage, plus an interview with the counter-nave, prayer-protest organiser, plus what else is Canterbury Cathedral up to these days?
- The plot thickens at General Synod as bishops are said to have been less than honest with their deliberations over gay blessings.
- parkrun becomes the most recent formerly fun thing to be ruined by transgender ideology.
- And an email from an anonymous source reveals the very disturbing incursion of critical theory into the Church of England's safeguarding training.
