It is not a crime to hold traditional values

Article Abstract:

Some student unions have withdrawn recognition from religious societies based on the assumption that the belief among conservative Christians that some behaviour is sinful is an expression of hate. This would seem to mean that these student unions are saying that disagreement itself is disturbing and to avoid conflict and offence there must be no possibility of certain views surfacing in the public sphere.

A dark stain under a shining deed

Article Abstract:

Britain led the way in abolishing slavery in the early part of the 19th century, but also profited greatly from slave-based commerce during that time, a period that is seen as a dark stain on British history. The bicentennial celebration of the abolition offers the opportunity for Britain to question its historical involvement with slavery.
