Haven't the Bishops heard? Charity begins at home | via @Telegraph http://fw.to/sCoSYDE
Excellent, by @CLeslieMP.
@PeterThurlow interested. Why? There's a void of 'meaning' in society that CoE cld be filling. That's its role. Their letter seems so cheap.

@CLeslieMP You seem now to be restricting the church role to matters spiritual and suggesting poverty shouldn't concern them.
-
@PeterThurlow Not at all.It shld.But for credibility,need to lead by eg,be objective,informed,+have practical alternative plan,that's all. -
@CLeslieMP But actually, making plans might reasonably be considered the province of politicians, don't you think?
-
@PeterThurlow not just politicians; anyone who cares. Caring isn't an emotion. Its an action. And good action needs a good practical plan. -
@CLeslieMP No, caring is an emotion. 'Caring is an action' is a marketing gimmick.
-
@PeterThurlow Disagree. I think the New Testament Christ is pretty clear about faith+caring being manifested by action not words.
