Last week the Lords threw out an appeal by Christian Voice against Jerry Springer - the Musical, last week and in particular, their attempt to overturn a High Court ruling that prevented it bringing a case against the BBC for screening it. Christian Voice thought the BBC should be prosecuted for blasphemy. The Lords felt that their petition did “not raise an arguable point of law of general public importance”.

Stephen Green of Christian Voice said, ‘Contrary to the finding of these Law Lords, it is indeed a matter of great general public importance [I agree, I have lost count of the times I’m out and people are talking about this] at this very time that the Almighty Creator of the universe and the Saviour of mankind have been insulted and vilified in this United Kingdom. It brings down the judgment of God on us all. I love my neighbour and I do not want that to happen. [His love for his neighbour is only conditional we shall soon see]

‘Christians will now have to take matters into their own hands when Christ is insulted on stage and on screen. [ I presume here he means by not going to see the plays/films and by changing channel] As it happens, our campaign against the theatre tour of Jerry Springer the Opera was highly successful, by the grace of God. The producers and theatres lost a fortune and Stewart Lee himself said it was ‘ruined’. Blasphemy isn’t going to happen on stage in the United Kingdom, it’s just that unless and until this loophole is closed, Christians will have to find avenues other than those of the law. [Prayer perhaps]

‘To be frank, the decision of their Lordships Bingham, Hoffman and Hope is a blatant, shameless political manoeuvre by a God-defying elite intent on looking after their own [as opposed to the God-fearing looking after their own obviously]. Lord Hoffman in particular has voted in the House of Lords for no-fault divorce and for gay rights. A judge like that would always be prejudiced against those seeking to uphold righteousness. Furthermore, and in retrospect, it seems there was no way the Establishment could countenance the Director of General of the BBC appearing in the dock accused of blasphemy. So first the Divisional Court, then the House of Lords, jumped through hoops to get him off.

Mr Green appears on his beloved BBC this evening as part of an investigation into gay rights for BBC Wales’s current affairs programme Week In Week Out (Tuesday 11 March, BBC One Wales). In the programme Mr Green apparently responds to a comment by ex Steps singer, Ian ‘H’ Watkins, that he is “completely happy” being gay and that he was in a loving relationship, by saying “Jeremy (sic) Dahmer was happy murdering people, does that make it right?”

What happened to ‘I love my neighbour’ ?? Obviously what was missing were the link to the small print disclaimers that clarify he only loved his neighbour if they met the strict criteria laid down by him.

Oh, and I hate to tell you this, but if you’re an atheist and reading this, then it is all your fault.

This is not the beginning of a ’slippery slope’
Oh, yes it is! While most MPs were busy debating blasphemy last Thursday night, three of them slipped away to put down an Early Day Motion for disestablishment of the Church of England. The motion came out with the number 666. Is God trying to tell us something? [ fill in your own comments on this one, I no longer have the heart]
