Just Love – A Journey of Self-Acceptance (and ITV on Conversion Therapy)
by David Robertson, theweeflea:
ITV news is at it again. Presenting a one-sided piece of ‘news’ which is in reality propaganda – with no attempt at any kind of balance. Look at the video in the link which treats those who believe that someone might change their sexuality (something which has demonstrably happened) as being almost equivalent to terrorists – or at the very least heretics against the new morality. Vicky Beeching could not resist tweeting her delight at this. Which reminded me about a new book I read a couple of weeks ago.
Jayne Ozanne is a part of the Anglican Establishment and a relatively well known evangelical in the Vicky Beeching mode. She came to my attention through the work of CCPAS (read about the danger this organisation poses here ) and so I was interested in her autobiography – Just Love – A Journey of Self-Acceptance. It was very similar to Vicky’s Undivided – and therefore carries the same health warning! Its the same emotive story, the same irrational arguments and the same twisted theology.
This was such a depressing read about a woman from a privileged position seeking for identity, love and relationships. Perhaps the saddest bit was where she recounted being raped by an Anglican priest. There is the now familiar story of how she sought to be delivered from ‘homosexual’ demons.
In this review lets reflect upon some of her own statements which indicate the wrong teaching that is a key part of this ‘progressive’ theology move away from Christianity.
