"But the Church of England is considering rejecting England’s patron saint St George on the grounds that his image is too warlike and may offend Muslims."

Not to mention that dragons are an endagered species.

There is not a priest or vicar in England, with the exception of some females ones, who would go along with the replacement of St. George.

Not one.

Mr. Johnson is, ihmo, engaging in Chicken Little hystronics for the purpose of an article. Perhaps it was a slow week for him. After all, England did lose in the World Cup, thanks, in part to Rooney's groin shot, leaving England only 10 players on the field. There isn't a Brit in the Wimbledon finals, as usual. So, maybe riling up the folks with this whimical story from some feminist nut case filled the daily quota for article submission.

My 2 cents.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_George#Muslim_world
wikipedia entry on st george:
"In Islamic cultures, the figure of al-Khadr (or al-Khidr; according to the Qur'an a companion of the prophet Moses), is associated with St.George, who is also venerated under that name by Christians among mainly Muslim people, especially Palestinian people, and mainly around Jerusalem, where according to tradition he lived and often prayed near the Temple Mount, and is venerated as a protector in times of crisis. His main monument is the elongated mosque Qubbat al-Khadr ('The Dome of al-Khadr') which stands isolated from any close neighbors on the northwest corner of the Dome of the Rock terrace in Jerusalem."
