Excellent documentary on contemporary Church-State issues in modern Britain! Much of this documentary is applicable to other parts of the Western World, like the US. It's certainly true that Christians are not facing any kind of Diocletian-style persecution, but misguided attempts at political correctness and artificial attempts at multiculturalism (thinking that we are appealing to minority faiths-when even so many of them oppose this kind of fake standardization for cultural appeasement and relativism).
The amount of nightmarish cruelty Christians have visited on everyone else, they're so ready to believe that not finding a parking space is persecution. It's astounding.
“So, my dear friends, listen carefully; those who embrace these my ways are most blessed. Mark a life of discipline and live wisely; don’t squander your precious life. Blessed the man, blessed the woman, who listens to me, awake and ready for me each morning, alert and responsive as I start my day’s work. When you find me, you find life, real life, to say nothing of GOD’s good pleasure. But if you wrong me, you damage your very soul; when you reject me, you’re flirting with death.”
To some degree there’s always been persecution, or rather, religious discrimination. In the 1930’s, my grandfather was rejected for joining a country club to which all the officers of his business belonged. Why? He was Catholic and everyone else was Protestant. This was in New York City. Also barred from the club were Jews and “Coloreds.” As a public school student in the US in the 1960’s and 1970’s, it went from reciting the Lord’s Prayer every morning along with the Pledge of Allegiance, to forbidding any sort of prayer and large numbers of students and a few teachers refusing to say the pledge or stand for the national anthem in protest of US military involvement in Vietnam.
If you can’t merely tolerate another’s religious celebration and the public expression of it, there’s something wrong. You need to go live in a cave! Should people have unwanted religious observances imposed upon them? No. Nobody should be forced to participate in religion in which they do not believe. But seeing a cross on somebody else’s necklace, seeing a menorah in a public park, cordoning off a city block for the celebration of Diwali, these force religion on nobody. Passers-by aren’t obliged to join in prayers, rituals, or celebrations! If the mere sight “offends” you, then close your eyes or go away. Mature people don’t get butt-hurt over such things.
We’ve ignored the warnings and now we’re in the same boat as our brothers and sisters in the UK. Maranatha - COME LORD JESUS. Quickly‼️The next 4 years are going to be hell on Earth-& I’m not using that word lightly or unthinkingly. I’d MUCH more be cared for by a Christian nurse who expects to be judged one day according to how she’s carried out her duties.
We have the opposite trend in Texas..you have to pray to Jesus Christ every time you go anywhere. But every picture of Jesus is a blonde white man and they would freak out if you had a brown savior on your wall. Christians seem to be so far from Jesus in America..just one mans opinion from rural communities
Christianity as a religion has failed miserably. The problem is the church, the bible, the establishment. Jesus truth was never delivered honestly in the so called bible. The truth remains the truth. Once the church, its traditions and beliefs, is gone, then true spiritual advancement can begin.
For starters, Christianity is NOT a religion. It is a relationship. It is not a denomination, it is a relationship. A relationship with the Creator of the universe and every in it. JESUS CHRIST. Don't mistake catholicisn or Anglicanism as Christianity. Those are cults which have borrowed bits and pieces from the Bible. Read God's Word and you will understand. These are man made organisations which have ZERO to do with God.
What parent would have a school teacher sacked for praying for there sick child? It seems to me they should be the ones being checked out!😤

Bad ideas deserve challenge.

And I suppose your saviour would be that unspeakable despicable poor excuse for a human being tRump?
I’m a 16 year old catholic, and even at school I get marginalised for my faith.
If you believe it then stand up for it. No one can make you feel inferior without your permission.
Hopefully

After their WWII victory Communism's 1st priority is the destruction of Christianity.
Then which are the lies. Can you sught them?
