Have we just crossed the "God" barrier?

I've heard of life being created with a lab, sperm and an egg, or the more traditional method of a guy and a girl who love each other very much, lots of candles, dinner, plenty of kissing and lots of squishy noises.

But THIS looks like something entirely new. Human beings "creating" life without the aid of sperm or an egg.

Have we just crossed the "God" barrier, and if so, what does it mean to us in a spiritual dimension.

"Consider that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives."

Future Services

Over Lent we looked at the Easter baddies, a series on the characters of the Easter story that are presented in a negative light. We looked at Judas, Herod, Pontius the Pilate, Barabbas, two thieves and then JC himself. It raised issues about reputation, public personas, choice and how our own picture of Jesus can be related to social or personal experience. We are now focusing on our AGM which is on the 9th May and we will explore some issues of rules and working together.
