Christians should learn how to be a 'minority' from Muslims, {Anglican}bishop says

The Telegraph ^ | 12 July 2011 | Tim Ross

[Cronos]

The Rt Rev Nick Baines, the Bishop of Bradford, said some parishes in his diocese were 95% Muslim but that this should not be seen as “a problem”.

“This is a fantastic opportunity,” he told the General Synod, the Church of England’s national assembly, in York.

“It is a challenge, yes, but it’s an opportunity to rethink what it means to be a Christian community. We often ask Muslims to learn what it is to be a Muslim as a minority culture.

...

They voted overwhelmingly in favour of a plan to tackle the Church’s “pale, male and stale” image by using methods that have been described as “favouritism” and “positive discrimination”.

The move came after a report by the Venerable Daniel Kajumba, Archdeacon of Reigate, showed only 1.1% of bishops, archdeacons and cathedral deans posts are filled by ethnic minority candidates.

ahem...with due respect -- the problem is that you guys don't stand for anything anymore

[DBrow]

Passing the plate becomes Jizya.

[Hodar]

Sure, let’s compare how Christians treat non-Christian minorities all over the world; to how Muslims abuse, beat, kill and rape non-Muslims all over the world.

When you stand for nothing, it’s easy to make stupid statements.

Like taking sheep to the slaughter. Their prophet raped a 9-year old girl making her his wife. I won’t even apologize for saying their religion is for animals.

I think we are learning a lot about being a Christian minority - from Iraq

The UN is “all over” protecting Christians and Jewish minorities, isn’t it? (crickets)

[Roger_Wildcat]

Sure you can learn how to be a christian minority. Just look at such Islamic majority countries as Indonesia, Iraq, Eygpt, Pakistan, Nigeria, Uzbekistan, Afghansitan, parts of Russia, parts of United States (Dearborn) on and on.

The Bishop speaks like a true Dhimmi.

The Lord had no problem with giving the Gospel of the Kingdom to the "pale male" and creating a land called the United States of America that would bring forth fruit. I do think it's time for the "pale male" to return to his first love which is Jesus Christ in order to see his land healed.

This includes Europe

Read Isaiah chapter 1 to see what and why Europe and the USA are in the position they are in.

Ah, yes... forced tributes, sexual slavery, persecution, church burning, murder at whim... such an opportunity.

Face it, UK... you are, for all intents and purposes... history.

Nor will I.

[Little Ray]

He’s got a point.

We should stage insurgencies, violent protests, terrorism and otherwise torment our hosts until they submit.

But I don’t think Christ would like that very much...

the screwl that issued his university diploma

should rescind it now.

[John Leland 1789]

I'm sitting in a McDonalds right now in a Midwestern American town and see no indication that this “parish” or town is anything but 95% NON-Christian. Christianity appears to be a very small minority right here. It is obviously not 95% Muslim, but it is also not even 5% Christian by appearance or by what I hear right around me.

A big vacuum! Ripe for Islam and other cults.

So is he in a nogo zone yet? Without the constabulary, its heads on pikes for Christians in moslem land. Prince Charles and his merry band of anglican fools are easy pickins'.

[x_plus_one]

We have boatloads of Somali immgirants paid to live here by saudi interests. The Somalis are not political refugees. What they are is devout moslems who throw elections when the husbands go into the voting booth with multiple wives to ensure proper voting.

A losing city council candidate sued and brought a case against the board of Elections for allowing this type of vote fraud. The local liberal/union/ missouri machine democrat judge threw it out. So now it is legal for somali men to tell their multiple wives on welfare how to vote in every election. Somebody needs to do something before KCMo turns into a third world hell hole.

Democrats are paving the way for a turkish caliphate in KCMO just because they think they can keep their power base that way. What ignorant FOOLS.

Sure, Bishop Baines. Why don’t you start a parish in Afghanistan or Egypt and get back to us in a few months and let us know how that’s working out for you. No problem, I’m sure.

“Their prophet raped a 9-year old girl making her his wife.”
///
actually, he married Aisha when she was 6.
(he was about 53.)
...but he only “thighed” her, until she was 9, when (according to her own hadith), he took her from playing with her dolls, to have sex with her.

...a “religion”, that tells people this is “perfect man”,
who should be emulated
(and they do! even in this 21st century!),
that -specifically- permits killing gays and Jews,
beating your wife (but no bruises on her face!),
raping kuffir women, etc,
and specifically declares war on all lands not under sharia, and seeks overthrow of their governments,
should be banned from America!

Charles Martel saved Europe by defeating 50,000.
now 10 MILLION live in “no-go” zones supported by taxpayers.

Osama bin Laden himself, said that increasing Muslim birthrate, was a MORE important problem, than ANYTHING he did.
demographics is destiny.

Ah, secularism — the allure of worshiping the TV daily and going each Sunday to worship Mammon at the local mall...
