Number 88: Reverend Scott Rennie, minister, Church of Scotland.

Scotland’s first openly gay minister is a member of the Church of Scotland’s Taskforce on Human Sexuality. His appointment as minister to Queen’s Cross Church, Aberdeen, has been the subject of fierce controversy since it was announced last year. Archbishop Desmond Tutu has spoken in defence of his appointment.
