Tag: CofE

As an individual with no political power – the Iman has stated that the existing “blasphemy law” should not be misused to attack non-Muslims – but he broadly supports punishing bona fide attacks on his faith (what more could he do – considering the situation he is in?). Bear in mind that the CofE has been historically riddled with allegations of paedophilia, and permits St Pauk’s Cathedral to me used for “raves”. Furthermore, whether an individual (or group) is Christian or not – the CofE permits people to use Churches as “hotels” over a single night or a number of nights – indeed, this highly expensive and lucrative development is termed “Champing”! I have personal experience of this – as I stayed over-night in a local Church assessing if claims of “hauntings” had any validity (there was no evidence). I note the CofE has registered the term “Champing” as a “Trade Mark” (after-all, the CofE has only just ended its long-term investment in the arms industry). I support a universal freedom of thought that gives equal weight to “believing” and “not-believing” in religion. Religionists must accommodate and accept atheism and non-theism – just as secularists must tolerant those who believe in a sky-spirit. Religions tolerating one another’s delusions is not the answer – it is just a step. Religionists should not be offended by my words.
