The USA is liberal and the manufacturing company for homosexuality and perversion, but they still believe in God in a real way. On the contrary, GB seems to be indifferent to a real move of God. The people live as if there is no God. They are very liberal in their way of thinking. Those who are church goers often attend the Anglican Church. Few are acutally Catholic, for which is a plus. There are full gospel churches branching up here and there, but it still maintains its Godless mindset. Some of the greatest ministers that ever lived came from there, so it does not add up. People like Elton John, which is the same as our Rosie O'Donnell, are usually the norm. Witchcraft and earth worshipping is seen as normal. Why have this nation turn its back on God?

In the United States, there are still some, myself included that are God Fearing Christians. You describe Great Britain as if they are a godless people, pagans, devil worshipers, people who live without fearing God. I feel that I need to point out that the nations that turned their backs on the Lord, nations that lived similairly to Great Britain, like Sodom and Gomorrah, and the original inhabitants of Canaan were destroyed by God's hand. There is still hope for Great Britain, maybe there will be more missionaries who go to Great Britain, and be like a modern day Jonah, serving Great Britain as his own Nineveh, and as a result, Great Britain could change it's ways.

It saddens me to hear this, as a good portion of my ancestry came from Scottland, and England.

Well, I guess Great Britain has always been more forward-thinking than most other countries. What you are seeing now in the GB is a backlash against the entire religious establishment. Everyday we see on the TV news the horrors that faith brings to the world and the Brits are voicing their opinion which comes over as Anti-Christ stance.

With people like Richard Dawkings writing books like the ‘ God Delusion , UK atheists now have someone saying the things on a world scale that before we were just too polite to say in front of Christians.

This is 2007 and there is enough scholarly research to know that the Bible is not all what it was cracked up to be. I can see this ( Anti-Christ ) trend moving forward ; already I am wondering how we can re-utilise all those church buildings?

There might be Gospel churches springing up from where ever but you could bet your last Dollar that you won`t find an English person in any one of them . I can only speak for England , but i know there was a survey done to calculate the percent of the population that are Church goers. It included every Church of all Christian denominations in the whole of England .The result was 6.7% But most of those were immigrants from Poland and Eastern Europe and the majority of the remainder were elderly people over the age of 65
it strikes me as odd considering the amount of English people i see on YA using the excuse "we are a Christian Country" as an argument for why Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs shouldn`t be allowed to live here

Britain has a long history of progressive rationality - I'll explain it for the questioner as he seems a few cardamum pods short of a curry in the education department: Parliamentary democracy was born in Britain, The Reformation was championed in Britain, the abolition of slavery was championed in Britain, the industrial revolution started in Britain, Charles Darwin was British, and Richard Dawkins is British. We haven;t turned our back on god, matey, we discovered long ago that there is no god, and that respect for humans is far more worthwhile. We are not the perfect society and we have many serious problems, but we have one less thing standing between us and a bright future than you have - god.

Hail Eris!

Well, hello, Mr. Dominionist! Is your Fuehrer Herr Bush beginning to look like a real loser? That's too bad. Do you suddenly feel like the entire world's against you and your fellow believers in the Mandate of "God's Dominion"? Don't worry, that's perfectly normal paranoia, and entirely justified. After all, you've been exposed for over two years, there are multiple Yahoo groups and LiveJournal communities now arraying against you, your usenetters are winning kook awards, your leaders are dying, and things just don't look that rosy for you anymore. If you can take over the US military, you have a chance at victory, but only a chance.
They're not exactly all that mighty, these days. Iraq has not been gentle on the US Army or the Marines...

I don't believe there is an easy answer to your question, but keep in mind that the established church is not very far from institutionalized agnosticism and the fact that we've never really progressed very far from the old blood-oath culture of northern Europe and you may have some of the answer.

Great Britain is an island. What do islands know that humans don't?

The nations of peoplw that live on the British Isles ( 4 in number) have not turned their back on god. God is an imaginary being,
The society that lives on those islands have more compassion, integrity and tolerance for fellow human beings than you could ever imagine.
You are a hypocrite of the worst kind.

The rulers of great Britain and u . s . are already his puppets, so he won't touch them. he will survey the earth and attempt to coach off his power to distinctive countries to cajole them to stay with him. whilst he will attain Syria, Christ son of Mary will descend on a Minaret of white masjid in Damascus and after fajr prayers, come out to stand the Anti-Christ. as quickly as he will see him, he will start up melting as a candle melts. Christ son of Mary will kill him close to Ludd Airport, in Israel. M J Iqbal

There is a great move of God in the UK going on just now, and He is promising us a revival soon. Our churches are growing and it's being done quietly because the media are atheists and won't report what's really happening.

As an Englishman living here in the United States I would just like to point out the error you made.

More importantly, why are Americans so Pro-Christ?!

I'll try my own personal take on the situation-I do not claim to talk for anyone else and I do not mean to offend intentionally.

I guess as a nation we just got there a long time before you guys. We've done our religious piety, had wars, beheaded monarchs, burned 'witches' etc years and years ago and realised that no matter who says what or who is in charge it doesn't change anything. There is only so much people are prepared to take before they expect to see a little mercy for their worship and there was not a lot of that going about, so people stopped worshipping.

When I look at America it brings me back to my previous point, how much are you guys going to take before you realise that worshipping god isn't saving your soldiers lives or stopping freaks and perverts abducting children and going on killing sprees?
