Some Brits have demonstrated at times in history some of the best, and alas some of the worst, traits. I guess same for America? At any event, they appear to be in a downwards spiral nowadays, and some of their worst traits seem to be making the headlines fairly regularly ... as you noted.
My theory is that a strong Christian faith commitment brings out the best in a people, but... UK seems to be going pagan in any of its current popular forms (communist/socialist/progressive; islamic, and/or just plain “secular...” take your pick... they all converge in Hell....)
I am going to try to avoid this note becoming an unsolicited lecture to the Brits because, quite frankly, USA is just a little bit behind them on that road to Hell... for the very same combination of reasons, plus obviously we are being led from on top now... down that road.
So I prefer to just say, pray for the remaining good Brits and good Americans. They may no longer be determining the course of their nations, but they are still there....
nonetheless.
Uh, the brits don’t have a very good history when it comes to Israel and Jews in general.
LOL --the English language peoples have more in common than that! Besides, let's remember that our good intensions only bear fruit when we're willing to go though hell to make things better.
