This is a true story of tragedy, hope and reconciliation involving a black Atheist man and a white Christian woman in Apartheid South Africa. One has suffered directly from the actions of the other, but both have been victims and they rise beyond their pain. They become united in a powerful journey beyond forgiveness to reconcile and help others. It will indeed be good to have Howard, the executive producer of the award winning film to lead us in a discussion of its implications for human relationships across the divides of race and religion.

On 30th May, we are having a special dinner to celebrate ten years of PCN in Edinburgh. Twenty- one of us, some of whom have been part of the group since its launch in 2006, and others who have joined more recently, have planned a meal at a local hotel. This replaces our usual gathining in the Cluny Centre. At a recent gathering of the group, we reflected on what PCN had meant to each of us over the years, and we explored where we might want to focus in future. On Monday we will celebrate our journeying together as progressives....

Topic for discussion: Inventing the Individual: The Origins of Western Liberalism - by Larry Siedentrop
Sunday 8 May 2016
"If only the church would go back to the simple good news proclaimed by Jesus and put aside Paul's elaborate and abstruse theology" "Paul invented the religion Christianity, with little regard for the life and teaching of Jesus of Nazareth". How often we have heard views such as these or even thought them ourselves. In this session we shall look at themes from Paul's letters which suggest continuity between his theology and Jesus and hopefully see their interpretation and relevance for today's very different world.
