INSIDE CORNER

From the Street Fayre to Wings and Wheels at the Airfield there seems to be enough to do in the village every weekend this month without having to travel anywhere. But there are a lot of events that don't get a mention at all, so if you're organising an exhibition, show or other event please let us know and we'll be pleased to give it a plug. After all, the WWN goes into every house in Wellesbourne and Walton and it won't cost you anything. If you need any help with it Alice or Elizabeth will be pleased to help.

TACKLING THE HARD QUESTIONS

Have you ever wanted to have a go at thinking about the really Hard Questions to do with faith?
Does science disprove God? If God made a good world, why is it such a mess? Does religion make peace or stir up conflict? Is there 'good' religion and 'bad' religion? Why are there so many religions? Can you have a sense of right and wrong without believing?

Thinking is Allowed (to echo the BBC programme) and we plan to do some of it on Wednesdays, 21st & 28th July, at St Peter's Centre 7.30pm, with Dr Christopher Lamb. There will be a box at the back of St Peter's Church for you to post your questions in beforehand so that we can get an idea of what people want to talk about.
