I am writing a Grove booklet on the biblical texts relating to gay unions. This is the first draft of my section on Genesis 1 and 2. All comments welcome; they might find their way into the final text!
Genesis 1 and 2
Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the unrestrained animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
So God created human beings in his retain image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number… (Gen –28)
The Lord God said, “It is not fine for the gentleman to be alone. I will create a helper suitable for him.”… So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals. But for Adam no suitable helper was found… The Lord God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the male, and he brought her to the man. The guy said,
“This is now bone of my bones
and flesh of my flesh;
she shall be cal

I really like Francis Spufford. I loved his book Unapologetic, in which he seeks to give an sentimental, rather than rational, &#;argument&#; for the Christian faith. It includes a flawless summary of the dilemma that Christians have in talking about sin and forgiveness, noting how the word &#;sin&#; has been degraded into the concept of eating one too many ice creams, whilst the reality of human error is written all over our culture, in a phrase he abbreviates as HPtFtU. It is not only beautifully written, but offers robust, appealing and thoroughly humane response to the glib assertions of the &#;new&#; atheists.
But I also like him in person. We are both members of the General Synod, and during the &#;Shared Conversations&#; about sexuality, we were in a small group of three together, and had the most fascinating exchanges about the reasons for our different views, and whether they could co-exist with mutual respect. I wish those conversations could have continued.
Francis has written a characteristically engaging and nuanced piece in the Christian Century on why he changed h

Drugs are a little alternative. “I’ve done all sorts,” he says. “But not habitually. I haven’t taken a major hallucinogenic in a long time. It’s probably due, you know?” He stops and thinks. “Actually, I did a show some months ago and somebody squirted magic mushroom essence into my mouth. I think it was the equivalent of magic-mushrooms.” I reflect he’s exaggerating for effect, or has misremembered the dose. Still, he says: “That evening was very interesting.”
It was in the years following his recovery, as the ’80s came to an end, that Manchester felt favor “the centre of the universe” to David. After a particularly brutal break-up, David took stock of what he had survived: not only his childhood, but the Aids crisis that had coincided with his arrival in London. The loss of his friends, he says, was “off the scale.”
At that time, he was upset and angry and needed to channel it somewhere. “I had nothing to fail, because I knew that I was heartbroken,” he says. So he created The Divine David, a gangly, mop-haired, violently make-upped, over-enunciating “transgender cultu
