Neil McKain blogging about RE. May 21, 2015. May 21, 2015. After much procrastinating I’ve decided that it’s about time I got my own blog. I’ve guested for RE:Online and written for others but now seemed as good a time as any to claim some space on the world wide web as my own. Why the cursed fig tree? As a story I find it fascinating even if it makes no sense. This nicely sums up why as an atheist I teach RE. What’s the picture all about? The 3 Rs: Reading, Writing and RE →.

Neil McKain blogging about RE. The 3 Rs: Reading, Writing and RE. June 8, 2015. June 8, 2015. The inaugural #reblogsync has already provided much debate as to the meaning of religious literacy. Before anyone reads (or writes) anything on this issue however they should listen to this episode. Of Radio 4’s Beyond Belief from March 2015. It is a fascinating discussion. After a question I’d quit teaching and open a cocktail bar in Tahiti. Christian attitudes to fertility treatment. I have taught (and examine...

Neil McKain blogging about RE. June 16, 2016. June 17, 2016. No one would deny the two recent violent attacks in Orlando and Yorkshire have been deeply shocking and destabilising. However, what I have been surprised by is the seeming bandwagon RE teachers seem to jump on whenever tragedies like these occur. Mondays i front page:. Americas deadliest shooting #tomorrowspaperstoday. Mdash; Nick Sutton (@suttonnick) June 12, 2016. Finally who decides which lives matter? Which stories do we ignore? May 9, 2016.

Guilty Pleasures. A Short Story (just for fun) | The way I'm making sense of miscarriage
https://justonemoretimeagain.wordpress.com/my-short-stories-just-for-fun
The way I'm making sense of miscarriage. Guilty Pleasures. A Short Story (just for fun). Guilty Pleasures. A Short Story (just for fun). This is just for fun and not part of my miscarriage journey. See, I do have a life other than RMC! Therefore, now that I am presented with an opportunity, I find myself instinctively inclined to take advantage of my good fortune. But should I? A brief calculation; a balance sheet of pros and cons, proceeds in my mind. On reflection, the anticipated enjoyment would, most...
