Christians and Christmas, as we know, are under attack. The forces of political correctness, evil militant atheists.
Well, one of my favourite comics, Marcus Brigstocke, has been having a go at those who think Christians are being badly done to. Have a look at the video below.

We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.
We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.
Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.
Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.

Thank you Andy for treating us to this splendid piece of invective. Only one error in it - the leader of the opposition, Ed Milliband, has come out as an atheist.
ReplyDeleteVery nice! About time that someone gets the whole "Christian" thing. We're fighting our own battle here in Rhode Island.
ReplyDeleteApparently a gymnasium at a high school in Cranston, RI had a text on the wall that made mention of the "holy father" and all that claptrap.
The district was stuck between a rock and a hard place on it. Until finally cooler heads prevailed and the administration had it removed. But our local rag's web site allows comments on stories. You should have seen the comments on that one.
Whine is too mild a word for it.
