Extinction Rebellion

And he was issuing these weird threats where he referred to these men behind him as, like, "my men." And he said the Daily Mail has, like, 48 hours to respond, and then I'll ask my men to stand down, like, talking like some kind of a military leader.

Also, you know, the police just let them, you know, block the highway, which Extinction Rebellion, uh, uh, weren't allowed to do, or, um, [tsks] um-

Just Stop Oil

...

So there are these examples, and this is only one example, right? There are other examples of the church, of faith communities locally, which are embedded in the institutional church, where those forms of Christianity are practiced.

But then the point I made earlier about kind of theology happening on the street and on social media, I mean, Extinction Rebellion is a fascinating example, right? Where we have seen communion-like, Holy Communion-like rituals being celebrated as part of Extinction Rebellion protests on the highways.
