News From Israel MagazineGovernment Supports Muslims, Ignores Christianity
The British government has largely ignored the concerns of Christians as it has courted Muslims and members of minority faiths, a new Church of England report concludes.
The report argues that Prime Minister Gordon Brown’s government has failed to understand the role – or importance – of Britain’s largest Christian church.
It claims that the Church of England has been neglected by British lawmakers, who have focused on creating relationships with Islam’s leaders, in part to help combat terrorism and enhance community relations.
“Indeed, we were told that government had consciously decided to focus…almost exclusively on minority religions,” it said.
Peter Crumpler, spokesman for the Church of England, said the institute was asked to prepare a report “that could assist our reflections and contribute to our conversations with government.”
“The hard-hitting report raises issues of considerable importance, the authors say, and makes recommendations that challenge the government to recognize the church’s involvement and potential in public service reform,” he said.
“The report is not an attack on the government, but a call for greater understanding by all politicians of the role of the Church of England in the community life of this country.”

To appease minorities has been practiced throughout Europe for several decades. This development fits with Europe’s motto, “United in Diversity.”
We insist that in the end, all the religions of the world will form a united forum in support of Antichrist and his false prophet.
