We are a christian country apparently ???? perhaps they ought to cover all the churches and cathedrals over in tarpaulins not to offend anyone

Yeah, I feel really angry and want to complain, every time I see a crucifix. :clown:

the stupid thing is though that just because you're of one faith it doesn't mean you get 'offended' by seeing another faith. i'm not exactly a devout Christian, but if I see a Mosque or a Gurdwara or Divali lights or Ramadan calendars, I don't get 'offended' by them just because they're symbols of other faiths. surely in today's 'equal rights' world where's the risk of offending Christians by having Divali - why not rename it to 'October Light Festival' so it doesn't offend Christians (or Muslims, or Jews). 'risk of offending other religions' is just the cover story for the real reason why important symbols and freedoms are being stripped from this country. same reason as 'you can't do that because of health and safety' and 'you can't do that because of global warming' are fronts for the real reason. it won't be long before this is a country of brain-numb zombies, hooked up intravenously to daytime TV, generating revenue only by voting for what colour pooh to show on-screen next, hopelessly reliant on government handouts, and who cares what flag is flying over town hall any more because it's 'racist' to show the U.J.. don't ask me what the real reason is though (probably something like annexing this country either to Europe or the US for a couple of billion quid :x: )

 

...sorry I got a bit carried away there :blink: Merry Holiday everyone. :glare:

Well said Dave.....................

 

.......................but the more I see of our present society, the more I think that it has (the emboldened bit) already happened!!!

 

Richard:angry:

I think it's really bad because it comes across as police labeling people of other religious beliefs to be offended by Christianity when in actual fact they're not.
