Baroness Warsi, may I remind you that if it weren't for secularism, you wouldn't even be in office?
And to call it intolerant is, quite frankly, bullshit. The whole POINT of secularism is to make the playing field level so that there is NO intolerance against minority religious groups (this actually includse Christianity, proper Christianity, in Britain, when you think about it).
Yes, there is a double standard from the secularists. and Christians do seem to be marginalised and not given the same treatment that (say) Muslims are given by secular movements. SOMETIMES. RARELY.
So, while I understand that Archbishop Beardie and some of his mates might FEEL that it's marginalisation because of this sort of thing happening SOMETIMES, it does NOT mean that EVERY time some group wish to prevent Christianity having privileges above others that it's an act of discrimination.
And to accuse THEM of being politically correct is ludicrous and downright hypocritical - if anything it is the CHURCH that play the discrimination card.
It is worth bearing in mind that many people who back this sort of thing see it as a means of preserving our national heritage - people who interpret the word 'Christian' as 'someone with a vaguely Christian heritage', which is about ninety per cent of the British public.
That is why so many non-Christians back the Church. As for the issue with the prayers on taxpayers time, I do not want that, and you can cry discrimination all you want.
