I mean,look at them. They're obviously in an advanced state of racial deterioration. They're culturally exhausted,no more great literature from that bunch. Tony "little bush" Blair says "We don't do religion" and I believe he's right about that,if nothing else. But seriously - are we looking at a real,albeit metaphysical,phenomena? These people used to do great things,look at them now. They all dropped out of Christianity starting around the 20's and let's face it,they've gone straight downhill. Coincidence? What do you think?

If all that you say is true and I know you wouldn't lie, it's not that God has abandoned England it's that England has abandoned God... Jim

There is enough religion in England to ensnare the otherwise free. The Queen is still head of the Church; Blair is a Catholic and bring up his children to be so; The Lards still has its Bishops; Children in school MUST do RE and prays; We still have Church schools and some are now of the creationist nonsense variety; there are many Muslims in the UK and they are God followers like Christians.
Ho no! we have more than enough God in this country.
Oh the other hand - I have many Christian, Muslim, Jewish and Hindu friends who I love and respect; who do good work; who do not ram their beliefs down my throat.
If I am ill I can see a doctor or go to hospital without checking my bank balance.
If I become unemployed, my family will not be thrown out on the street and will not starve.
And contrary to belief - we have wonderful weather - the rain brings beautiful green grass, the flowers, the trees, and they feed the birds and other wild life.
The only way in which we are in an advanced state of deterioration is that we are now becoming just another state of the USA. Our Media contrives to speak American - English is now forgotten. We do not have a continuous action - it is ongoing, we do not have forthcoming events - they are upcoming.etc.
And how can a country which has so many massacres and murders lecture any other country about moral decline.
Just becuause you are sold the myths does not mean everyone swallows the same bo*****ks

If you believe that, your religion is beneath consideration.
The English have been exhausted in the 20th century by fighting the Germans (a larger nation with more resources at home) to a standstill in two world wars. I suggest you check the events of Passchendaele, Ypres and the first and second battles of the Somme, then start on a consideration of the Second World War before you dare to pronounce on recent English history.
Add to that sets of bad policies etc in regard to their home population from both Conservative and Labour politics and there is no surprise in the relative decline of the country as a "Great Power".
However they are still capable of giving most of the countries in the world a thorough thumping if they had to. That includes several other European nations. Never underestimate anyone, and particularly not the English.

The USA will follow; Dump God and let
everybody play in the United States of the Gay's own little sodom and Gomorrah.
What the hell do people expect? When you tear down a social structure that is decent
and replace it with filth, your looking at sure demise.
And the worse it gets, the more people whine. Well tough. People want to do all these dispicable things and then want the world to be decent. Can't have it both ways, and looks like many people have chosen Sodom. You packed the pipe, now smoke it.

"racial deterioration"? What is that? All of Europe is ripe for the plucking by the anti-Christ, exactly as has been predicted. So what? The nations will be judged, but our concern is the judgment of the individual persons. That should be enough to get our attention.

"Advanced state of racial deterioration" what do you mean by that, do you mean they are a multi-cultural society? Are you saying that you are a racist and because the British are not, you don't like them?

I certainly hope so, just look at any nation that has attracted too much 'Godly' attention.

So God was with them when they claimed half the world? So God supported imperialism?
