Decline of Christianity
In a lacerating attack on liberal values, the Right Reverend Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester, said the country (England) was mired in a doctrine of ‘endless self-indulgence’ that had brought an explosion in public violence and binge-drinking. . . . .
Dr Nazir-Ali’s attack on the decline of Christianity appears to put him in the opposite corner to the arch-liberal Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, and many of his fellow bishops. But he holds some views in common with the Church’s other widely-heard and popular prelate, Ugandan-born Dr John Sentamu, the Archbishop of York.
Over the past six months, Dr Nazir-Ali has made a number of criticisms of Islam and its influence. Among them have been charges about the spread of no-go areas for non-Muslims and worries over the impact of new mosques. The entire report can be read at DailyMail.co.uk Dr Nazir-Ali detailed his arguments in an article in the newly-launched political magazine Standpoint.
The bishop, himself an immigrant from Pakistan in the mid-1980s, admitted that he might be thought of as the least qualified person to discuss British identity. But he quoted Kipling: ‘What should they know of England who only England know?’
H.A. Award For Michael Moore and ‘Sicko”
Michael Moores’s ‘SICKO’ may not get the OSCAR but he’ll receive IGNOMINIOUS HYPOCRISY.COM AWARD.
“Sicko” director Michael Moore jokes that Fidel Castro would be a “ratings grabber” at Sunday night’s Academy Awards show and could deliver his acceptance speech, he told AP. Moore seems convinced he and “Sicko” will be honored with the top award again.
Whether Moore is presented with an Oscar statuette or not he will receive at least one unanticipated decoration, an ignominious HYPOCRISY.COM AWARD. The award’s symbol — a horse’s posterior – is why the HYPOCRISY.COM AWARD is also known as the H. A. Award.
The HYPOCRISY.COM AWARD recognizes Moore for high quality hypocrisy in the production of “SICKO” as further illuminated in the upcoming feature length film “SHOOTING MICHAEL MOORE’ set to debut this spring.
A spokesman for the HYPOCRISY.COM H. A. AWARD said “SHOOTING MICHAEL MOORE” exposes Moore and his film “Sicko” for its many misrepresentations. “Moore – more than most – deserves this ignominy just as much as Americans deserve the truth about medical alternatives around the world”
