Institute challenges Cathedral over blasphemous LGBT festival

Jun 27, 2019 by

from The Christian Institute:

Newcastle Cathedral is being confronted over a weekend-long LGBT festival that includes a panel discussion on “Queering the Church”.

Coinciding with the city’s pro-LGBT march, the Cathedral is hosting four panellists including a Church of England curate who identifies as ‘non-binary genderqueer transgender’.

Colin Hart, The Christian Institute’s Director, said such festivals lead people away from the good news of the Gospel.

Beyond tolerance

Between Friday 19 and Sunday 21 July, the Cathedral is hosting six LGBT events.

These include a communion service with an LGBT emphasis, marching with others in the city centre and “LGBT History Telling”.

The Pride Panel will see C of E curate Bingo Allison, Proud Catholics founder Isabel Hill, bisexual Revd Rae Caro and Bi Pride UK’s Karen Pollock discuss how the church can go “beyond tolerance to inclusion”.
