Talk on Religious Freedom in Britain

There is an important talk by Neil Addison at the next meeting of the London Oratory’s Call to Youth (for 18 - 35 year olds) this Wednesday 20 May at 8pm in St Wilfrid’s Hall, The Oratory, Brompton Road.

Neil Addison, a Catholic barrister, and author of the book "Religious Discrimination and Hatred Law" will be speaking on "Religious Freedom in Britain", especially addressing the threats to religious freedom today and the way in which we can use the law to protect our liberty.

The talk is important because although British Catholics have, in recent times, enjoyed relative freedom in the practice of their Faith, this is not something that can be taken for granted.

There will be refreshments afterwards and you can contribute to the discussion with your own questions.

Do you know if it is possible to record this talk and then make it available as a file for all to hear, Fr Tim ? I think all it needs is a small, hand-held digital recording machine (not expensive and widely available)if the speaker is happy for that.

I would like to hear what he has to say but can't make the talk.

Well that would be something for the Oratory Fathers to organise - or indeed one of the young adults who regularly attend.

Bernadette,
Most of the talks given to this group in recent times have been recorded and put online on a website called xt3.com
I don't know if this one will be. If I find out from one of the Fathers that it is, I'll put the information here.
