The biggest public event arena (11,000 capacity) in my city of Newcastle upon Tyne, under pressure from the leader of the local government heading pressure from the usual suspects, and for the usual (fake, lying) reasons; has forbidden Billy Graham's son Franklin from speaking; has illegally cancelled the booking without compensation. The same has happened at all the other large venues throughout the UK.
This feels like another threshold crossed in the UK - because now the attacks on Christianity have become explicit and specific; there is now a high profile precedent for suppression of all public Christian meetings of any kind and size.
Up until now; the specificity of preventing Christians from gathering and evangelising has been indirect; masquerading as political (not religion) suppression - as being about the promotion of the sexual revolution agenda.
But this is undeniably specifically Christian; because while Christian evangelism is crushed to uniform approval from The Establishment and its mouthpieces; other religious that advocate (from the secular perspective) exactly the same sexual morality - Judaism, Islam, Sikhism etc - are by contrast publicly celebrated, government/ charity/ educational institution subsidised.
There are many officially propagandised and paid-for mass celebrations, festivals and consciousness-raising events in favour of these other religions.
The contrast between Christianity and the others - suppression versus promotion - could scarcely be starker! (To forbid Billy Graham's ministry; in England - for Heaven's sake!) The continued hypocrisy of denying this fact could scarcely be clearer.
So officially-sancioned and officially-led and Establishment-supported anti-Christianity is here to see, for everybody with eyes to see.
The question now becomes whether one actually has eyes?... And clearly not many Britons do.
