This from a Labour Party Activist I meet at Congress, thanks for your contribution Stephen.
I have thought long and hard about the relationship between my Christian faith and Labour . All the people at the church l go to are pro National because they feel Labour is to liberal with matters of sex . I feel that my working class roots override this , mainly because l believe you elect a government primarily to oversee Employment and Finance , which l believe Labour does a far far better job of . Matters of sex l believe are also personal issues much more so than public issues and as such none of anybody else's business . Those at my church feel otherwise , they are entitled to their opinion . It does not stop me from being a strong and active Christian and Christian church goer .
Yours , Stephen
Jesus had a lot more to say about the boardroom than the bedroom. That is, he had very little to say about sex (nothing about homosexuality for instance) but he had a lot to say about the issues of justice, poverty, money, stewardship and so on.
