Sex and Christianity ... you've got to be joking!

Sex and Christianity ... you've got to be joking!

Some say that, for about 20 centuries, mainline Christianity has been preaching a baleful view of human sexuality. To many it seems, at best, a means of making more Christians and, at worst, a lapse of good taste on the part of the creator.

But recently some calls for a healthier view of human sexuality have been coming from within the church. Next week one such advocate, the Rev. Dr. Marvin Ellison, will be "In Conversation with Noel Cheer" on Triangle/Stratos Television insisting that sexual ethics is really a part of humanitarian ethics in general and not in conflict with a healthy religious outlook.

Stratos Television, Nationwide: Monday May 9th at 7:30pm (repeated May 11th at 6:30am and May 13th at 12:30pm).
Stratos is found on Sky Digital Channel 89 and Freeview (satellite and HD) Channel 21.
Stratos is found also on Telstraclear Cable Channel 89 in Wellington, Kapiti and Christchurch and on the streaming television website ecasttv.co.nz

Triangle Television, Auckland (UHF Channels 41, 42 and 52): Wednesday May 11th at 7:00pm (repeated May 13th at 12:30pm)
