Good Relations Conference 2014 - Address of Rev Norman Hamilton

On Saturday, 5th April Presbyterians gathered in Assembly Buildings for a morning conference entitled 'Dealing with the Past, Shaping the Future'. Dr. Norman Hamilton spoke about the importance of engaging with politics, reminding delegates that the word politics means, “of, for, or relating to citizens”. Given that the issues raised by the recent Haass talks proved to be complex and controversial, Dr. Hamilton spoke about the need for wider society to help shape the way these issues are handled, with the Church playing its part in this.
