The Telegraph comment on the Right Honourable Gentleman Tony Blair becoming a Catholic - controversial ?

Question

I feel that an important statement of Faith is very relevant - an orientation from Anglican to Catholic belief is a matter for personal consideration - what is more important is that Christian values are more progressive in Catholic circles to my understanding - I beleive it is important to uphold religious values - whatever our particular faith - our differences should be celebrated - a shared virtous vision to uphold values that advance understanding and action to promote a healthy and sustainable future for humankind is only to be encouraged.

Answer 1

I hadn't heard this. Thanks for the heads up. I went and found the article.

I suspect his conversion would be controversial in some circles but not for the general public, but as an American what the heck do I know about it? I just wanted to say thanks for the heads up on something I hadn't heard.

Answer 2

I didn't realize that freedom of religion was so controversial in England.

I assume there is freedom of religion in England in the 21st century. Am I mistaken?

With love in Christ.
