Five years on

The fruits of barbarism

It's the fifth anniversary of the 7/7 atrocity.

Given the number of attacks and near misses since then, that we have Jihadists that we can't deport living on benefits, an Afghanistan campaign in disarray, anti-terrorism laws still in place that inconvenience everyone except the Jihadists, a de facto and de juri invasion of Britain that continues unabated, another government that is reluctant to even name the enemy, and a general attitude of grovelling in front of the Faithful instead of standing up for moderate Muslims* and demanding concrete proof from the rest of why they should be trusted an inch, I'd say that we have a very long, hard road still ahead of us.

Meanwhile, to the victims of 7/7, our continued prayers.

*And by moderate I don't mean desiring a new caliphate in Britain, but are circumspect about it. I mean those who reject the goals as well as the methods of the Jihadists, swear allegiance to the Crown, recognise Britain as a Christian/secular state in which Sharia has no place, and intend to assimilate to British society rather than for that society to accommodate them.

Good question and certainly one of great theological importance. As a Christian I would say that since the Church embodied in our Lord Jesus Christ extends through all eternity, no

I leave the adherents of other faiths to defend themselves.
