Yes, apparently you are a true christian. Ever heard of Jesus?
You don't really believe the welfare state has destroyed society do you.Whether or not you believe in Christianity, it is without a doubt the greatest thing to have happened in our country's history; it is the basis of our civilisation, our peace, wealth and happiness and it gave us our best years. For the record I am a believer in some, but not all of it of the Christian religion. I am eternally grateful to have been brought up this way and am profoundly saddened that few Britons are raised like I was nowadays. I am a man of science, technology and industry but science cannot answer everything - there are many scientific facts that are accepted as orthodoxy one day and dismissed as nonsense the next. Christian beliefs have survived over 2000 years.
I take it for granted that us British are Christians - even those who deny it. Most of us have Christian names. We are brought up in (the remains of) a Christian culture. Our institutions were founded in it. Many now wish to destroy this.
Although I don't believe in some parts of Christianity, I believe in the people who do believe in it (if that makes sense) for they built our great civilisation.
All the bad things that have happened recently are due to the decline of Christianity in the country (By recently I mean since roughly the end of WW2.) The lack of respect for law and authority; the breakdown of the family; easy divorce; easy abortion; the loss of the work ethic; the failure of the education system; Socialism; Communism; the European Union; drug taking; Audis; shops opening on Sundays; the proliferation of muslims; the weakening of the justice system, prisons and the police; and perhaps worst of all, the welfare state - the main destroyer of the church and the family.
All these evils have taken the place of Christianity in the modern Briton's life. Christianity is still strong despite all of this and it will survive. There are plenty of us who have no truck with these decadent and degenerate ways.
Hallelujah - the spirit lives.
AMEN......yes,,those are the devil's work.Audis

Indeed.Vile bile.
Conveniently excluding a period of history when a lot of bad things happened.All the bad things that have happened recently are due to the decline of Christianity in the country (By recently I mean since roughly the end of WW2.)
I see ELFImpudence is being extremely silly with his attempts to corrupt and dilute the problem of racism.Oh, right my mistake.
Obviously we wouldn't respect foreigners with the same beliefs.

Not to mention the good 'ole USA...I believe Serbia considers itself to be a Christian country.
So do the various factions in NI.

That's a bit like durhamplumber saying, "we haven't had an election since the last one"!
You seem to have forgotten the period of NI history, when a lot of bad things happened, all in the name of Christianity, well two different threads of Christianity, like Christianity at war with itself.

"respect our fellow residents"Oh, right my mistake.

Please explain your obsession and how it is relevant to what I wrote.I see ELFImpudence is being extremely silly with his attempts to corrupt and dilute the problem of racism.
It is possible to respect someone, but still not affording them asylum.
Please explain how that is relevant to what I wrote.With your pedantic approach to words, I would have expected you to appreciate the difference between "grant asylum" and "respect".
Maybe your pedantry comes and goes to suit the situation.
exactly, we are limited, we think we are progressing with technology ,though it may be clever in its own right, if you compare it to the creation of the universe and life itself its,nothing to be impressed about.He said the question is to vast for our limited minds.
