Bishop criticises Muslims

Here was me thinking that the church has surrendered to the forces of multiculturalism and then Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester goes ahead and criticises Muslims.

He criticised many Muslims for their “dual psychology”, in which they desire both “victimhood and domination”.

In the most outspoken critique of Muslims by a church leader, Michael Nazir-Ali, the Bishop of Rochester, said that because of this view it would never be possible to satisfy all their demands.

“Their complaint often boils down to the position that it is always right to intervene when Muslims are victims, as in Bosnia or Kosovo, and always wrong when the Muslims are the oppressors or terrorists, as with the Taliban or in Iraq,” said Nazir-Ali.

“Given the world view that has given rise to such grievances, there can never be sufficient appeasement and new demands will continue to be made.”

What an unusual display of sincere honesty from a member of the Church. It’s just a pity he won’t be doing anything to stop it like joining a political party like the BNP.

Nick Griffin said far less than what that Bishop said and he is on trial for it. Will the bishop be put on trial?

Hat tip Archbishop Cranmer.
