            British actor and comedian John Cleese drew scorn for a recent X post lamenting the decline of Christianity amid a surging Islam in the United Kingdom, with many on social media blaming him for mocking the Christian faith throughout his career.

"The UK has always been based at the deepest level on Christian values, regardless of dogma," the 86-year-old Cleese said Monday in response to a video of British politician Susan Hall, who warned the historic Christian culture of the U.K. is quickly eroding.


         The Life of Brian WAS supposed to mock Christianity but the gents who made it said, they found nothing in Jesus life to mock so the story for the movie was drastically changed to mock human nature , and not Jesus.

  Sadly, there has been a decline of adherence to Christianity...and it's values. The age-old battle, god vs evil.

    In recent decades there has been a decline not only in the UK but also in the US and Canada.  I heard the other day, that in Canada, only 11% of Christians attend services on a regular basis.

    The opposing religion, the one trying to overcome us and freedom seems to have more faithful attendance.

  I would feel a loss, without regular attendance, and hearing an edifying, informative and thoroughly Biblical message. ..Great way to start the week !

  Probably the best way to combat the adversary, is by way of regularly partaking of the Christian message ourselves.

     For those who have perhaps neglected the practice...now may just be a great time to try Him again..

  The Bible says "Taste, and see that the Lord is good" (Psalm 34:8)
