It emerged this week that Empire Cinemas has rejected a short film produced by the Bible Society which highlights the comfort some first world war soldiers found in the Bible. The three-minute film explains that all British soldiers were given a Bible as part of their kit and that this was a source of hope to many. Empire Cinemas explained that they do not take adverts from any religious groups. This is not the first time that Christian films have been blocked by UK cinemas.
The controversy over the testimony of Matthew Grech continues. His testimony of becoming a Christian and leaving the gay lifestyle was initially aired on X Factor Malta, only then to be removed from all of its social media accounts. This week, Carys Moseley interviewed Matthew Grech to hear his view on the whole controversy.
An X factor auditionee’s testimony of finding God and leaving homosexuality was taken down from YouTube and Facebook this week. Carys Moseley comments on the wider implications this could have on society.
