Neither the Roman church nor the C of E believes this
Hi @BBCNews - in your coverage of the King’s visit to the Pope, please would you stop describing the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church as “two different faiths”? Both are Christian!

After a 7 year break, it feels like the right time to see @jacobcollier live again, now for for the 5th time. I've needed interluding time to recover. 🌟🎶🎵

And God held in his hand A small globe.  Look he said. The son looked.  Far off, As through water, he saw A scorched land of fierce Colour.  The light burned There; crusted buildings Cast their shadows: a bright Serpent, A river Uncoiled itself, radiant With slime. 1/2
