And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, spooky Christmas ghost stories. Oooooohhhhh!

Even secularists, yes, even them, like a good scare at Christmas.

Scrooge tells us that the mean and grumpy die alone. So if you’re dying alone this Christmas, that’s because you’re a failure who doesn’t believe in Jesus.

There’s nothing else in the news today. In fact I don’t even know why they’re bothering with the rest of the Today Programme.
