Is it a sin to be a Christian now?

Click on the title for this discussion on our local Ealing Forum

Some would call me a fundamentalist Bible basher. it's all water off this duck's back.

We live in a de jure constitutionally Christian country. De facto we are a secular state. Our liberties come from our Christian Reformation heritage and a bloody civil war, not the Enlightenment which gave us the French Revolution. Starting with Cromwell welcoming back the Jews, we have been home to other people of faith and grown in religious liberty. Then Christians were confident about their faith, confident enough to fight one another over it. Now most people influenced by a postmodernism they could not formulate, have succumbed to multiculturalism which sees truth in all religions and none. The multiculturalist establishment has this way failed to spot the threat that a minority of the followers of the religion of jihad could be to our society. They are ashamed of our Christian heritage for they have no personal commitment to it, except when like the fundamentalist atheist Dawkins, they show their inconsistency by say, liking Christmas carols. It is the multiculturalist who are so PC they take vicarious offence on behalf of minorities who show more appreciation of our heritage than the PC do.
