Gay Christians have been presented with an award for their work in combating homophobia. The award was given to the Lesbian and Gay Christian Movement (LGCM) following their support for a controversial advert.

A conference next year organised by gay Christians is to examine the link between the Christian faith and homophobia.

The advertising standards watchdog has rejected a claim that a controversial advert reporting increased homophobia, and depicting the Bible next to a pool of blood, implied that the teachings of the Bible were responsible for violence against gays.

A letter writing campaign by conservative Christians has failed to bring about a public prosecution against the Gay Police Association (GPA).

Gay police officers are facing increasing 'faith-based homophobia' reports the Times newspaper.
