Christ Is Born In Gaza
Friday, 22 December 2023, 3:25 pm | Eugene Doyle
Why was the Little Baby Jesus born in a stable? Because the Israelis bombed all the houses. Truly. Every year Jesus is born, dies and is reborn. He is reborn into our world – that is part of what makes Christian symbology meaningful. This year ... More >>

Thursday, 30 November 2023, 12:12 pm | Eugene Doyle

The Holocaust Should Be A Lesson Not A Template
Tuesday, 7 November 2023, 12:15 pm | Eugene Doyle
“Jewish people exterminating men, women and children in a concentration camp is _______.” How do you finish a sentence like that? The words should fall like acid into your ear drums. It should be an impossible sentence. And yet, not so. We are ... More >>
