Trevor Phillips, head of the British Equality and Human Rights Commission, suddenly tells us that his subversive and irresponsible commission is not in opposition to religion, and that he wishes to defend people’s right to believe in a God and follow a religion. Certainly, his organisation has spent a lot of time defending Muslims from elderly Christians who have the gall to attempt to discuss their own religion with them on equal terms.
It has spent a lot of the taxes of Christians in leaping to the judicial defence of every self obsessed heathen with a grudge against Christianity, while Christians who are victimised by these attacks are forced to pay their own court costs, though some have had their defences nobly paid for by the Christian Institute.
Trevor Phillips is only interested in permitting a diluted, sanitised version of Christianity, but he has no intention of allowing our lives to be lived in the way God intended in the Bible. The march of secularism can often seem like a reasonable goal in the interests of equal rights, but it inevitably means a diminishment of Christianity, a removal from it’s presence in public life.
In addition, Christianity teaches many things, such as objective morals, preaching the truth to others, and various prohibitions and restrictions which secularism deems incompatible with granting everyone equal rights to do whatever stupid thing pops into their head at any given moment. Secularism in such circumstances would be a reduction in true, Biblically ordained Christianity, which those like Trevor Phillips refer to as “Christian Extremism”.
This is in itself a partisan, anti-equality judgement, because it implies that there is an acceptable form of Christianity which Trevor Phillips likes, whilst every other kind is wrong, extreme, and no doubt liable to be prosecuted for hate crimes.
Of course, he gushes with praise for Islam, because they have supposedly made great steps to make their religion compatible with his godless society. I imagine many Christians would question whether that was true.
In any case, the Muslims have a concept which they call “Taqiyya” which basically translates to “deception”. It is the doctrine by which a Muslim may conceal their faith in the interests of safety or long term goals. Trevor Philips may be in for a shock if he thinks Muslims have any intention of conforming to his beliefs. It is entirely possible that he is aware of this, and merely wishes to use Muslims as a stick with which to beat the native Christians.
This obsession with compatibility is almost reminiscent of how democracy works in the European Union, where votes are held again and again until a result is given that is compatible with the goals of those who control the union from behind the scenes. Probably the mainstream churches will carry out revisions and consultations until they have developed a bastardised form of Christianity that suits our antichrist leaders. But I do not think it will suit God.
Christianity favours truth, not Muslim deception or compromised surrender. Our God is supreme, and our goals cannot be put on hold to satisfy the whims of the godless. Christianity created our nations, and it is our nations which must conform to Christianity, and not the other way around.
Trevor Phillips is not an especially important creature himself, for he is merely a vocal lackey of the people in power who so desperately hate Christianity, but cannot say so themselves for fear of awakening the masses of ordinary believers in Christ to their own enslavement to secularism.
But Trevor Phillips is a symbol of the nasty things which will keep crawling out of the woodwork and demanding ever greater restrictions on Christian worship, until the day when Christians finally say enough is enough, and start to live their lives as God intended, fearing no censure but His.
