THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND REPRESENTS THE WORST OF BRITISH SOCIETY
The Church of England, its synod, its bishops and its leading laity represent the worst of British society.
They are held in a time warp, clinging to redundant myths, peddling laughable miracles and preaching old prejudices such as homophobia and sexism.
Its present life depends entirely upon money drawn from past privilege and snatched from the fund raising of former generations. It would barely survive on today's levels of giving.
Its influence in public life is pernicious, corrupting the young with simplistic and anti scientific beliefs that muddle their participation in our enlightened age and promote the divisive thinking of our cruelly intolerant past.
In time it will fade away. Until then, we must guard ourselves and especially our children from its influence.
