I try not to use the ‘treasonous’ too often, it’s a powerful word and like many other similar words it should be used sparingly and only when necessary and right to do so, lest it become denuded of power due to overuse. However, on reading that Christian clerics in the city of Worcester are banging the drum in support of the building of a massive and monstrous mosque, I could not think of a more appropriate word to use than ‘traitor’ to describe their appeasement of Islam.

According to a report in a local newspaper for the area, the Worcester Observer, clerics from the Church of England publicly backed the bid by Muslims to build the mosque-strosity on the site of a former school car park. A number of clerics signed a letter to the Worcester Muslim Welfare Association stating their support for the building of the mosque. The letter, which seems to me to read like a paean of appeasement, states that the position of the Church of England in the local area was to welcome the new mosque and it grovellingly assures the local Muslims that the Christians will be ‘good neighbours’ to the Muslims. Unfortunately, the Christian clerics fail to mention that in much of the Islamic world, the biggest dangers to and oppressors of Christians are Muslims. I see little evidence that Muslims are good neighbours to Christians in places like Pakistan, Indonesia or even in the region of the world, the Middle East, where Christianity was born.

The Worcester Observer said:

CHURCH leaders across Worcester have lent their support to an ambitious £3million Worcester Muslim Welfare Association bid to build a new mosque in the heart of the city.

Members of the Church of England clergy in Worcester East Deanery backed the bid for the contemporary building on Stanley Road in a letter to association general secretary Mohammed Iqbal.

Rev Paul Honniball and Rev Kalantha Brewis attended the interfaith Iftar at the mosque on Monday evening to present the letter and were invited to read it out to those gathered just before the Ramadan fast was broken.

These foolish and naïve clerics appear delighted with their reception by local Muslims but they fail to comprehend that their pandering to Islam will probably not be taken as evidence of goodwill by Muslims but instead as a sign of weakness to be exploited. The clerics, some quite senior and attached to Worcester Cathedral, have disgraced their offices by this unseemly Islamopandering.

The Worcester Observer then went on to list the names of the Church of England clerics who support the building of this mosque despite ample evidence from both here and overseas that mosques bring little that is good to the non Muslims of any area where they are built. As is so often the case the clerics who have been named probably never have to live with the problems that Islam brings to areas. They may never have to deal with a distressed daughter defiled by a Muslim rape gang, never have to comfort a friend beaten up by a group of ‘Asians’ and never have to experience the horror of seeing an Islamic monoculture take over an area like an aggressive carcinoma takes over a human body.

The Worcester Observer added:

Senior figures from St Nicholas Church, St Barnabas with Christ Church, St Martin’s, St John the Baptist in Claines and All Saints Worcester are among those lending their names to the cross-faith show of support.

Rev David Morphy, associate priest at St Stephen’s Barbourne, Rev Canon Dr Alvyn Pettersen, canon theologian at Worcester Cathedral and Rev Andy Stand, team vicar at St Mark in the Cherry Orchard and St. Philip and St. James in Whittington are also among the names on the letter.

In my view every single one of the clerics signing this letter have by doing so abandoned local Christians to the depredations of this ideology called Islam. They have done so by failing to examine Islamic theology and seeing the hatred within it for Christians and others. It appears that for these clerics, promoting the failing ideology of multiculturalism is far more important that standing up for Christianity and for Christians. Now I’m all in favour of different religions getting on, but managing these sort of relationships takes honesty and discrimination. These clerics are not being honest with themselves or with others about the true nature of Islam and they are failing to discriminate between good and evil by their mindless support of this potentially damaging mosque.

Reading the extracts of the letter published in the Worcester Observer turns my stomach. At a time when the nation faces an unprecedented threat from Islamic terrorism, Islam inspired crime and anti-social behaviour and the worsening problem fo Islamic Rape Gangs, the wording of this letter looks like abject appeasement.

The Worcester Observer said:

“We wish to record publicly we welcome the development of the facilities you are proposing, particularly the development of a worship space which can be used by female worshippers, sports facilities for the local community and facilities for young people.

“This will be a significant investment in the city we all share.

“We wish to offer you and your colleagues our encouragement and support as leaders of a local faith community and to assure you of our goodwill as your neighbours.

This is revolting appeasement and shows how far the Islam-appeasing Left has managed to burrow into the structures of the Anglican Communion. I can’t help but wonder how this sort of appeasement is viewed by those Anglican clerics who minister to flocks in Islamic lands and who suffer oppression under Islam along with other Christians? These clerics who live under Islam must tear their hair out looking at these spiritual ‘lukewarms’ in religious vestments. The Church of England used to be characatured as ‘the Conservative Party at prayer’, but now it looks merely like a bunch of naïve hippies and left wing useful idiots.

This plan for a mosque has apparently not yet been given planning permission by the local authority and I would urge local people to fight this mosque imposition via the planning approvals system. The intervention of the Anglican clerics in this situation could well be a way of trying to convince local planning authorities that there is both broad and deep support for this mosque before it comes up for planning judgement. People need to get campaigning against this mosque-strosity using the usual channels and with peaceful protest if necessary. As for the clerics, well that’s a different matter. I hope that local Christians, especially those who are familiar with anti Christian oppression in the Islamic world, politely take these clerics to task for their stupidity and naivety.
