Britain is still a CHRISTIAN DEMOCRACY despite the best efforts of Secular Lefties and others, and of course Democracy is imperfect, and of course Christianity is flawed, and the reason they are so, is that MAN has corrupted the purity of both.

This being so, I for one, will always still elect to live in this Christian democracy any day, than in any of the countries where Communism, Islam, or Dictatorship, is the 'political system'.

Despite the hysterical claims of anti-Christians to the contrary, Christianity is not 'forced' upon any of our citizens – either by the state or by the church, and neither is it forced upon our children in any of our State schools or other centres of learning , and perhaps these anti-Christians are confusing Christian preachers and teachers with their hate-filled Islamic counterparts.

So then, what reason is there to wish to 'destroy' the historical link between Christianity and the State in this country, when the role of the church increasingly has no longer any input into our Constitution?

The answer to the above is that there are NO reasons, and because of this, Christianity-haters remind me of those Islamic Fundamentalist cretins who destroyed the priceless ancient artefacts; the 'Nineveh Winged Bull' and the 'God of Rozhan' in Mosul, Iraq, for no other reason that 'they were there and did not fit in with their own ideology', because Christianity-haters have the same mentality.

As for Democracy, Mario Puzo wrote in 'The Godfather', that; “a lawyer with a briefcase could steal more money than a hundred men with guns” and from politicians to heads of corporations, this is true of all men in authority not just lawyers. Which is exactly why our Democracy has never been, and still isn't, 'perfect'.

Perfect or not, I for one, do not desire to live anywhere else in the world. However, in the knowledge that I have always had that there is; “something rotten in the state of Denmark”, I will continue to use any intelligence and talents that GOD has blessed me with, and utilise any of the many freedoms which this great country has afforded me - including my vote - to try to CHANGE the 'men with briefcases' in Whitehall and Threadneedle Street who corrupt the system, rather than to try and change the system itself.

For the whingers and whiners who do not feel the same, then my personal message is CLEAR;

Do not DARE to try to change this Western Democratic Christian country which the rest of us love – if you do not like living here, then you are FREE to board the next plane to Syria or some other Middle Eastern country, and use what intelligence and talents you have acquired by complete accident and chance via Evolution, to reason with and try to change the 'men with guns' who rule there.

And 'Good Luck' with that.

You are a supporter and believer in democracy yet want people who don't agree with it to leave the western world and go to the Middle East?



Also the UK is no longer a Christian nation since there are more non religious people here than Christians

There have been more non religious people than Christians since the early noughties

That's a very interesting statistic.

Can you read correctly?

I did not state that I wanted anyone who didn't agree with our democracy to leave the western world and go to the Middle East - I actually said that those who wish to try to change this Western Democratic Christian country which the rest of us love, and those who do not like living here are FREE to board the next plane to Syria or some other Middle Eastern country.

There is a vast difference in meaning between what you state that I said and what I actually did say, but hey - don't let not being factual when quoting my posts stop you, welcome to the forum you will do well on here.

As for "Also the UK is no longer a Christian nation since there are more non religious people here than Christians" and "There have been more non religious people than Christians since the early noughties" - it all depends upon which internet source you care to refer to for your statistics.

However, once again, I never said that this was a 'Christian Nation', I said that this was a Christian Democracy, and because Christianity is still the largest religion in the UK, and as Christianity is still officially the State Religion, then I am correct in my statement.

Why do you keep acting like you the voice of the GP? You have no idea how many people "love" or do not "love" this "christian democracy"

The facts are that this "christian democracy" is failing people who aren't wealthy or do not have power, so clearly it isn't working and NEEDS to be changed

How can we be a christian democracy when the MAJORITY of people in the UK aren't christian?

I don't act like I'm anyone's voice but my own. But are you seriously suggesting that the majority of the General Population of the UK do not love this country as it is? And I do not mean that they do not wish to see changes but that they do not wish to see either Christianity or Democracy go like some do.

You say that this 'Christian Democracy' is failing people and needs to be changed, but it is not 'Christianity' who is failing people, nor 'Democracy' - just the politicians who are inept, incapable, corrupt and insensitive.

Can I ask what do you personally propose that we do to 'change' it?

I have already correctly illustrated why we are a 'Christian Democracy' even if your figures are correct - which is not guaranteed given that different internet sources give conflicting information.

Incidentally, it is an impossibility for everyone in the 'GP' to have 'wealth and power'. In fact, if all the wealth in the UK was taken - communist style - and shared out equally between all the UK's population - I would bet you every penny I have that within a relatively short period, most of that money would end up back in the pockets of the rich and powerful.

Similarly, if 90% of the 'GP' were given 'power' most would not know what the hell to do with it, while others would become more greedy and selfish and uncaring than those who have power now.
