And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, Human Dignity. It’s great.

You might not think that I can go on for three minutes saying how great Human Dignity is, but I just regard that as a challenge. Once I start giving examples where Human Dignity has been cast aside then the list is almost endless. And of course, we Christians have just a little bit more Human Dignity than everybody else because we are made in the image of our Invisible Magic Friend. All three bits of him.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, weddings. They’re great. There are all sorts of weddings, including proper weddings in a church.

Jesus went to a wedding once. He turned the water into wine, there being no other major problems in the world that needed sorting that day. And no one even got a hangover.

Scientists have uncovered an ice core that is 1.5 million years old. That’s a very long time. Does this make you feel small, fleeting and insignificant? That’s because you are small, fleeting and insignificant. Your pointless existence is nothing compared to the ancient rocks and ice of the earth.

Yet somehow you would like to feel a bit more important than that. Never fear, we can turn to theology to help. Theology assures us that all three bits of the Invisible Magic Friend know you personally and love you. Good job somebody does.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, words. Words about war, atrocities, moral outrages and red lines.

As a celebrity Christian writer, I know that there are words in the Big Book of Magic Stuff. Yes, words are that important. The prophet Amos used words to express moral outrage.

And that is how we solve all of today’s problems.
