I just need to vent a bit about this load of bollocks on the BBC.  David Cameron has said the UK is a Christian country, historically true of course, we have a national church and the queen is theoretically in charge of it as well as the rest of the country.  Thankfully however, the UK is not Christian in any practical sense, the C of E's influence is minimal and still diminishing, it is the church of 'Meh', the posh crockery that we dust off for special occasions of pomp and ritual but otherwise ignore.

As Mr Cameron says, our cultural diversity is something to be proud of but it has nothing to do with any Christian doctrine of tolerence, Christianity, like all the major religions, provides no space at all for its competitors.  Heathens must be converted, subjugated or wiped out, these are indeed the Christian values that helped make Britain what it is today, motivated its fighting forces and brought home the spoils of conquest, but that was centuries ago.

The values that allow us to live peacefully in a diverse community are entirely secular.

Before espousing a return to any biblical values I suggest Mr Cameron takes another look at the bible itself rather than the rose tinted, fairytale version most 'Meh' Christians vaguely recall.  It is a bloody violent, primative, and completely outdated manual for running a cult that has no place in modern society or government.
