How to forgive

Yesterday's BBC Radio 4's PM programme (27 November) carried an interview with a man who had been raped and abused from the age of 14 by a Catholic priest.

The interview was one of the most moving and impressive I have heard for a long time. Responding to challenging questions, the interviewee demonstrated incredible eloquence, wisdom and simple humanity regarding how to cope with abuse and abusers and how to apply moral and spiritual values in a secular society.

The interview deserves to be published (I suggested this to the BBC) and is worth litening to on the BBC's i-player system.
