Medieval Sacristy revealed; The Good Childhood Report; Climate Change Protest
William Crawley with a look at the ethical and religious issues of the week.
This week, a lost medieval sacristy used by 13th century monks has been discovered in the grounds of Westminster Abbey along with hundreds of bodies and many artefacts. William Crawley speaks to Warwick Rodwell, Consultant Archaeologist to Westminster Abbey about the find.
The Good Childhood Report by the Children's Society says that UK teenagers have the lowest levels of life satisfaction across most of Europe, which often results in fear of failure. Mark Russell, Chief Executive at The Children鈥檚 Society discusses the report.
Christian Climate Action has issued a joint statement on behalf of Christians, including four Church of England vicars and a Catholic priest, who have been arrested for their part in past Extinction Rebellion protests. In the statement they say they are willing to risk being arrested or support others who may be. William discusses whether having a Christian faith justifies breaking the law with Signatory Reverend Helen Burnett and Professor Christopher Finlay, Durham University.
