Welcome to the Bear Pit

The Christian Socialist Movement, of which I am a member, have asked me to represent them at a debate with the Labour Humanist Group which will be hosted by the Hertsmere CLP and will take place within the next fortnight (details to follow).
This is the first time I have actually been invited to represent any individual or organisation in a debate outside the area where I live and I am a little bit nervous and wonder if I will be flayed alive (metaphorically of course ;) )!
But then religion and politics are my two favourite topics of conversation and I do relish a good challenge, otherwise I would not have done have the political and spiritual things I have done in my life so far.
That said, prayers appreciated, or positive thoughts ;)

What's the debate on ?

I think it's more about defending our theological/philosophical beliefs in relation to our involvement with the Labour Party, but I have yet to get the fine details
