'Rev Brian Ross said he was summoned to a meeting with a senior officer and told that postings on his blog on the subject of marriage did not fit with the force’s equality and diversity policies. Campaigners against same-sex marriage claimed that the case was “just the start of things to come”.

They said it backed up warnings that chaplains in hospitals, prisons and the armed forces as well as teachers and other public servants could be dismissed legally from their jobs if they take what they consider to be a stand on grounds of conscience over the issue. Ministers have repeatedly insisted that no one should be sacked from their job for voicing opposition to same-sex marriage and have built in special “protections” for clerics into the Government’s Marriage Bill. But in a written submission to a committee of MPs revising the bill in the House of Commons Rev Ross claimed that his case was “typical of the kind of situation that could, and would, arise” once gay marriage becomes law.'

You can view his blog here. Why not go over and offer him some encouragement and say a prayer for him. As far as I can see, he's just being posting the 'Marriage Minutes' produced by the Coalition for Marriage. In the new political order, I guess speaking the truth is a revolutionary act, as Orwell said. Rev. Ross was a volunteer chaplain. Oh, only a volunteer? Oh, well that's alright then! Hang on, are we saying those who don't subscribe to the new definition of marriage can't even 'volunteer' in the public sphere?
