Going Catholic could be the best thing that’s happened to Britain, as the Church of England has become a hollow shell of itself. You’ve got their archbishop saying things like “you don’t have to believe in the virgin birth”. A hollow church because it has hollowed out its beliefs.
And here's an article by the BBC's idiotic correspondent in the United States who is in charge of the United States blog: here. The man is a figurative moron, but has the gall to inaccurately report to an audience largely unknowledgeable about Christianity much less evangelical Christianity. The dimwit is infuriating not least because he is spreading his ignorance to others.
It's time that lawsuits targeted the "deep pockets" of teachers instead of the Church.
Let's see...whose "deep pockets" would the lawyers be into then?
Most Catholics I've met are non-denominational but devote Christians. We're long past the quibbles that made relations between other Christian sects difficult or impossible. I think the more mature amongst us have started seeing the situation as "United we stand..."
At least I hope so.
3% of Britain’s population fanatically call their sons “Muhammed”.
97% of Britain’s population give their sons an enormous range of names. Because they’re not fanatics.
“Muhammed” only gets the top spot because of the intellectual sterility of Muslim culture.
What can the Church of England do to win back worshippers? This means that the established Church has lost its place as the nation’s most popular Christian denomination after more than four centuries of unrivalled influence following the Reformation.================================================================================================================================================================================================================================
Do what they did in France in the 1860’s Close all the Catholics Churches and Ban Priest and Nuns they did the same in Mexico the Beginning of the 20th century!!... cest la vie...
Will the current Prince of Wales become the next “Bonnie Prince Charlie” and return the Stuarts to the throne?
Jacobites rule!
A tiny start would be to quit appointing atheists as bishops.
Start by getting rid of the Queen Of Canterbury.
Then stop trying to be secular Unitarians.
Easy.
Free Clue: This stood for something.
Prior to Henry VIII, England was a Catholic country.
BTW: Henry VIII was really after Church property ya know. Had not much to do with divorce or theology.
LOL!... Exactly right... England has worries and it's not the Catholics... Hopefully we are learning our lessons here in the U.S.
