Hi, I was the intrim Chairman of Advance UK Weston super Mare Branch,
In a nation so devided as ours with such deep seeded HIstory, and veins of Christianity within its roots. It is clear to me we need a strong Christian revitalise.
The sad truth is the Church of England has been somewhat quite which may be due to evidence that caused Bishop Justin to step down.
After embarking again to Poland it is clear the strength that Christianity holds within its culture. Additionally, Krakows blessing of Corpus Christi which saw the Bishop of Krakows castle finish with an expressive speech about a devided Christ.
The reason I mention all this is for the very fabric and foundations Ben Habib drew my interest to the Party; culture and Christianity.
Britain has evolved and deversified its culture this is true, it brings colour, art, food and celebration from all around. However, in doing so we have lost sight along the way.
In due time i will be drawing people into the Policy platform from Christian communities and would love to hear peoples thoughts on this?
I also would love to get to know you all in time so feel free to pop a comment even if you have no thoughts on the subject!
In due time I will be putting up Policies I have been drawing together with others, but until I can find a trusting place and party for this, it will remain with on my Server.
United we stand; or devided we fall.
God bless.
There is an obvious question here: “Which Christianity?” I would contend that the CoE, or at least the non-tractarian parts, have let us down. I don’t think that the institutional CoE wants to be the cultural bulwark we need it to be. I also am increasingly convinced that Protestantism inevitably leads to this soft liberalism, which pervades so much.
In truth, we have two options: become Catholic, or become Eastern Orthodox.
You waver a very fair and direct point. Given recent issues which cost Justin to step down the CoE has now made a decision to pay for repairations for the Trans Atlantic Slavery in recognising where it may have had its part to play.
Now, there could be some great things that can be redeemed from this, in particular our relations with the US given our fragile relations with them at current. However, given the Kings decision to now step away from CoE and instead become a King for “all Faiths”. You wager a fair point, especially given my time in exploring places with strong well devloped societys and how Catholicism is there bread and butter such as Poland.
This said, we do have to remember that relinquishing from the CoE and forgetting the reasons why it did come to be in the first place, but also how the Protestant Faith has impact globally, perhaps taking a leap back could do more damage than good.
Soft liberalism is not necessarily a bad thing, but a resurection of our once great Churches certainly can be. Love to hear your thoughts
