Questions of Faith: Cryonics
For many the thought of living forever is one of science fiction, but it was recently brought to reality with the news of a 14 year-old cancer sufferer whose dying wish was to be cryogenically frozen in the hope a cure would bring her back to life in the future. There has been plenty of debate around the emotional, financial and ethical questions of Cryonics, but where does faith come into it? To answer this, Marc is joined by Reverend Mark Woods and Rabbi Benjy Rickman

But some Christians are against nuclear weapons and support for Trident and others want to stop our taxes being used to fund defence and wars. Labour MP Ruth Cadbury will introduce a bill under the ten minute rule in Parliament to allow taxpayers to conscientiously object to their money being spent on the military. In this episode of Questions of Faith, Marc Shoffman speaks to the Brentford and Isleworth MP.

Consuming Issues: What would Brexit actually mean for immigration? A chat with Jonathan Beech from Migrate UK
European Union leaders last night warned that the UK must honour the principle of free movement of people if it wants to retain access to the single market after it leaves the bloc. French and German leaders made clear that this was non-negotiable and the UK couldn't pick and choose. Immigration to the UK, particularly from poorer EU countries, was a key issue in the referendum campaign. So what would Brexit actually mean for immigration?

Reverend Bill Braviner and Dave Lucas, both from Disability and Jesus, and Dr Zachariah Duke, Academic Assistant to the Dean Lecturer in Theology and Biblical Studies at the Broken Bay Institute, speak to Marc ahead of Living Fully, a conference in Rome this week that looks at disability and religion.
