End of an era

No he can't - that's why he didn't reply to my previous post. Its not hard to stump the ignorant.

OK, so what organised religion pre-dated Christianity in the UK? If you are refering to Sun worship and Wicca then both are still around. However, practioners of both were persecuted once the new religion was established. My concern is that Islam will take precedence over any other religion in the UK, due to the seeming inherent intolerance of Christian symbolism, and other religions will be persecuted.

Yes, I've noticed that. I was half expecting some blustery drivel about tree huggers or somesuch. He often does that when stuck in a logical hole and then runs off blubbing to the government to protect him from the big bad boogeymen terrorists.

Oh dear!! Another tree hugging, terrorist appeassing, God hater emerges. sasguru you have a fellow ponce to help you ease the loneliness.

To reply to both Chico and John. yes Christianity was the first "organised" religion in this country (although to my thinking, "organised religion" is an oxymoron). However I think you underestimate the robustness of our fellow countrymen if you think Islam will in any way be forced on us.
What you are seeing now is the last attempt at "organised religion". It is essentially a power game.

In a way Chico , wouldnt you say that in terms of the crucifixation, Jesus was a bit of tree hugger ?

It seems clear from the writings of G. Julius Caesar that the religion of the native British Celts was highly organised even to the extent of sending representatives to the annual druidic convention within the territory of the Carnutes (in Gaul).

The Roman state religion was, of course, highly organised as you might expect from a pragmatic and practical people such as the Romans.

Both were present in Britain a long time before Christianity.

I assume you have forgiven the terrorists, and will continue to do so in order to break the cycle of escalating violence?

Yet again, he slinks off in the dark, tail between his legs, like the hypocritical jackal he is

JG, if you genuinely worry about that there's no hope for you.There's more chance of TB admitting Iraq was a mistake and embracing plain speaking ...
