The slow whiny death of British Christianity
Carey and the CofE demand Christians be allowed to break the law requiring them to treat gay people equally when providing a service to the general public – and that any case where a Christian feels discriminated against should be judged by a special court of “sensitive” Christians. If we started allowing religious people to break basic anti-discrimination laws, where would we stop? Until 1975, the Mormon Church said black people didn’t have souls. (They only changed their mind the day the (US) Supreme Court ruled this was illegal, and God niftily appeared to their leader that morning and announced blacks were ensouled after all.) Would we let a Mormon registrar refuse to marry black people? Would it be “Mormonophobia” to object?
