Characters, fine. But what about dogs? Are you killing any dogs?

The Biblical case for being pro gay rights is really easy to make. The anti case depends on a relatively small number of bits of the Bible that are disputable; the pro case is based on the whole of Jesus' life...

I'm in my late 50's.

My kids are both adult.

I'm still waiting to feel grown up.

I wish I remember who said this to me: "I'd rather be rejected for accepting people than accepting for rejecting people"

I love the canine interpretation of "not allowed".

Stop Trump Tower on the Gold Coast! If you, like me, are concerned about the direction our country will go if a Trump Tower is built in our country, then join me in objecting!

Text messaging with a young adult member of our community, who, speaking of a friend of hers, said "she was baptized catholic but unsubscribed"

Not questioning this - but do you have a source? Things like that matter.

β€œThe Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas” may be the finest short story in the English language

When the same (political party) can be used for atrocities and a reason to end them. Your (support for) that (political party) needs to be questioned.

Or substitute any other institution you like. People are capable of corrupting anything.

My favourite of all your books :)

The videos are enough to bring a civil case - burden of proof is lower (balance of probabilities rather than beyond reasonable doubt)

That medical care was not provided (indeed was denied) is itself enough to bring a case.

Just using β€œdon’t shoot the messenger” when we’re talking about someone actually getting shot.

Not a big thing, but I think it adds to the trivialising of gun violence.

Assuming pre-teens don’t have accounts?

That doesn’t pass the laugh test.
