We've got to find ways of confronting the issues that divide - and at the heart of cultural issues, you often find religions.

What I'd say about that is that we must respect homosexuals in the church. I've got many homosexual friends, the issue is not in any way a homophobic reaction on my part.

Belief in the resurrection is not an appendage to the Christian faith. It is the Christian faith.

The Israelis have suffered a great deal, we must condemn suicide bombers, and we must never say that the plight of the Palestinians justifies this terrible thing.

We must get back to a very strong Christianity... Christianity shaped America and England, and we need to get back to those moral foundations that made us great.

I think what has happened, actually, is that September 11 has given a spur, a renewed urgency, to dialogue between the great faiths.
