Manic street preacher

This evening I saw Philip Howard sharing out leaflets at Oxford Circus Station, and decided to ask him for a picture. He said “why not?” and immediately started a private one-to-one preaching session. I was setting up my camera. What a privilege! He asked me whether I love Jesus (“of course”) and advised me to avoid sins like greed and envy. He told me not to have sex before marriage. To that I replied “I try”, and I'm glad that my answer was ambiguous enough as to keep him happy while being also true under my own interpretation of the words. Which may be a tad different from his.
