Each year, the European Commission publishes a European diary for schoolchildren throughout the European Union. Three millions copies of the 2010-2011 version of this diary, distributed to schools free at the request of teachers, have been issued. The current version does not mention any Christian feasts, but does give the dates of Islamic, Sikh, Hindu and Chinese feast days.
In a recent legal review by the High Court, Lord Justice Munby and Mr Justice Beatson are reported to have said that there is no place in British law for Christian beliefs: I applaud them for drawing attention to the way our politicians have failed us. It is the job of politicians to ensure that our laws reflect our Christian heritage; the job of the Judges it to apply the law, not make it.
Grrr-rr-r.
