Britain is not actually a Christian country, and attaching the label of "Christian" to policies, people, and the country does not make them truly Christian. To understand what it means to be Christian, one should look to those who follow the life and teachings of Jesus Christ in their words and actions, not whether they use the label itself.
A response to the christian britain debate
- 1. April 2014
- 2. Britain is a Christian country
- 3. DavidCameron is a Christian Prime Minister
- 4. Food banks feed hungry people who have fallen through a Christian benefit system
- 5. Britain has a Christian attitude towards immigration
- 6. Britain has a Christian nuclear deterrent
- 7. Britain is concluding a war in Afghanistan which has been fought on Christian just war principles
- 8. Christian Britain is engaged in a free and transparently fair debate about the independence of Scotland (If the first minister Alex Salmond gets his way there will not be one Christian nation but two this time next year)
- 9. Erm, None of the above is true Attaching the Christian label doesnt make a country or person or a policy Christian - it misrepresents and confuses
- 10. If you want to know what Christian means you would do better to find people who follow the life and teaching of Jesus Christ whether or not they use the Christian label
- 11. Listen carefully to what they say Watch carefully what they do and apply liberal doses of salt and light!
