“Well, I wouldn’t say there is any major ‘pro homosexual’ activism in the UK as such, although in replacement of this, probably worse in fact is that we have plenty of do gooder politicians who actively push this agenda.”

It appears from all I read of the cultural demise in the UK that there is indeed strong, well-oiled activism at work there. My thoughts are based upon what I read in well articulated opinions of C of E leaders from different perspectives as well as other articles from the Motherland

Well, in fairness I live here, and I know for a fact 99% of the activism is do gooder politicians scrounging for votes which is why we have had within the last 10 years a considerable liberalisation of the laws - such as the lowering of the age of consent in line with hetrosexuals, 16, and also more recently civil unions.

The C of E hasn’t exactly been pro active or nearly outspoken enough on the issue.

As for ‘cultural demise’ this is often well overstated in the foreign press, and is really a major overeaction.

The majority of the Daily Mail/Express articles you probably read are gross exagerations and while there certainly is a problem over here I won’t deny, it is a problem repeated in most other western democratic nations including the US.

The majority of the time it is an ‘isolated’ case where some PC zealot thug is causing the problem - in which case it is fairly easy to rectify and thankfully the mainstream printed press is on the right side!
