Tony's This Spiritual Life guest is the Hebrideah Baker, Coinneach MacLeod. The criminalisation of conversion therapy – the practise of attempting to forcibly change a person's sexual orientation or identity - is being debated in Westminster. Tony speaks to Dr Harry Tanner whose own experience of conversion therapy was the catalyst for a new book. The week’s headlines and the themes behind them will be debated by Tony’s Faith Forum panel who this week are: Ruth Weller - a Christian, digital content creator and leader of an online ministry; Very Reverend Sally Foster Fulton – UK and Global Churches Ambassador for Christian Aid, and former moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland; and Rabbi Pete Tobias of the Glasgow Reform Synagogue. They’ll discuss newly elected MP Andy Burnham’s ideas for devolution across the UK, the United States' 250th Anniversary – is the American Dream still alive? Plus as the US Supreme Court’s decision to uphold the right to birthright citizenship, does where you are born equate to belonging?
