Footballer and model seek legal humanist wedding
A footballer and a model are mounting a court challenge to
have their upcoming humanist wedding recognised as legal, arguing that they are
being denied the rights given to religious couples.
Laura Lacole is marrying the Leeds United and Republic of
Ireland midfielder Eunan O’Kane in Northern Ireland next month. The couple,
both humanists, want a ceremony that reflects their beliefs, but the only legal
options available to them are a religious or civil service.

Donald Trump goes to Church and the Pastor is a good example of Christian conflict between Catholics and Protestants.
Before the inauguration ceremony, Trump and his family are
due to attend a private service at St John’s church in Washington, at which
controversial pastor Robert Jeffress is expected to preach, writes Harriet
Sherwood.
Jeffress is the Southern Baptist leader of a 12,000-member
megachurch in Dallas, a regular Fox News contributor and a strong supporter of
Trump during the election campaign.
He has described Islam as an “evil religion” that “promotes
paedophilia” and has said the Roman Catholic church is a “counterfeit religion”
which represents the “genius of Satan”.
He has accused Obama of paving the way of the Antichrist by
his support for same sex marriage, and that gay people lead a “miserable
lifestyle” that is predisposed to “depression, or suicide, or alcoholism.”
Jeffress tweeted on Thursday that he was “Honored to deliver
sermon ‘When God Chooses a Leader’ for Trump/Pence private family service at
St. John’s Church before#Inauguration.”

C of E archbishops call on Christians to repent for Reformation split
It unleashed an orgy of death and destruction across Europe.
In England alone, more than 800 monasteries, abbeys, nunneries and friaries
were seized, libraries were destroyed, manuscripts lost, treasures stripped and
works of art appropriated. Thousands of people were hung, drawn and quartered,
or burnt at the stake for their religious beliefs.
Five hundred years after the Reformation, the religious
revolution that swept across Europe, the leaders of the Church of England -
itself created in the decades of upheaval - have called on Christians to repent
for the divisions, persecution and death.

The Lord's Prayer!
'If somebody said, give me a summary of Christian faith on
the back of an envelope, the best thing to do would be to write Our Lord's
Prayer.'
NEW GCSE requires greater knowledge of thrilling stuff like prayer, here we have a previous Archbishop of Canterbury explaining, in some depth, the Lord's prayer and how it influences individuals, communities and societies. If you learn some or all of this prayer you can drop bits of it into answers all over the place, so it's a useful way of learning quite a few teachings at once.

Sunni and Shia - Islam
New GCSE: Islam
The BBC says:
Many of the conflicts raging in the
Middle East today see Sunni and Shia armed groups pitted against one another
and communities, that were once a mix of both sects, torn apart.
To understand the origins of the dispute
we must go back to the final hours of the Prophet Mohammed and the question of
who was going to succeed him as leader of Islam after his death.
