]]> Comment on Abortion Petition by Xt3 http://saltandlight.wordpress.com/2007/08/18/abortion-petition/#comment-3971 Xt3 Mon, 20 Aug 2007 10:07:03 +0000 http://saltandlight.wordpress.com/2007/08/18/abortion-petition/#comment-3971 thanks for the hat tip :) I took the data directly from the peition website, http://www.bmapetition.org.uk. As far as I remember from the research I did in my degree, you can usually get Stats from the Office for National Statistics site: http://www.statistics.gov.uk. and Google Scholar is often interesting, but bear in mind that some of the journals (like Family Planning Perspectives) sometimes have a little of their own agenda!

The influence of Christianity on society could also be seen as a preservative effect on morality, and as an antiseptic against immorality.

]]> Comment on More Unity by saltandlight http://saltandlight.wordpress.com/2006/06/21/more-unity/#comment-1 saltandlight Sun, 25 Jun 2006 09:31:09 +0000 https://saltandlight.wordpress.com/2006/06/21/more-unity/#comment-1 By the way, I went to see Brother Yun speak at a meeting here in Northern Ireland last year. What a disappointment. From the book, I had imagined him as a humble Godly man with a steely spirit and a strong faith. I suspect that since he has left China and come to the West and been given star treatment everywhere he goes, his humility has suffered a bit. He came across as someone who was used to being applauded for talking about his exploits as a persecuted Christian, as a folk hero, who has told his stories so often that he now feels they have to be embelished that little bit more every time, just to keep everyone's attention. There is no mention in his book of some of the miracles he now claims in his speaking engagements, and there is also very little reflection now of the book's focus on scripture and the power of God to change lives. When he started describing in dramatic detail how he raised his mother from the dead over the phone, I almost got up and walked out! Sad that pride and adulation can corrupt people so easily.
