Home Churches
Geoff and Carol and others,
We have never, ('we' being Shirley and me, that married woman I live with, and am married to), back to the issue, we have never been to a home church, and would like to -- hint, hint.
As I keep saying we are not enthused at the Anglican church, but then again its clearly one of the places where ideas go around and some people push for todays issues ahead of the rest.
I was thinking while walking the dog, the big issues when I was a teenager were 1. introducing into Australia the contraceptive pill, 2. accepting bibles other than the King James Version, 3. ideas of expressing Christianity (at 13 I read 'Honest to God' and understood about half on it), 4. the divorce revolution and the need for the Family Law Act, (1972 I think), and 5 the teaching of evolution in schools.
As a teenager I had no opinion on 1 and 4, at 12 I had and loved my Phillips New Testament and thought the KJV was 'old hat' and read a lot of the modern religious book (while listening to Stan Rofe and Don Lunn, remember them Geoff). I've always thought that through evolution God made humans, plants and animals.
This is why I shocked Michele's family (among a few other things). They were all 'squares'.
