"Death to Satan!" - Irreverend Christmas Special

Church of England vicars with a difference Daniel French and Jamie Franklin sit down for a special festive edition . This time:- Breathing is bad for the environment. What should we do about it? Fewer humans of course!- The Doctor Who Goblin song reads more like a Satanic paean to the murder of babies.- The diabolical shrine erected in the Iowan state building has been torn down by a zealous Christian military veteran. - Louise Perry says woke Christianity will kill the Church stone dead.- Lesbian vicars receive blessing in CofE church whilst Pope gives approval for gay couples to receive blessings...Or does he?- We ask if it's possible to have a meaningful Christmas as an atheist and we review an article tracking "The New Theists".Thank you for your support over the course of 2023. We wish you a merry Christmas and a very happy New Year!Promotions:Where's Welby?
