What do the right to wear the cross as a declaration of the wearer's faith

and the Government's intention of legalising gay marriage, despite the firm

opposition of most Christians, have in common? Answer, the growing

perception that the Coalition Government is hostile to the Christian religion.

Is this really what David Cameron wants? If he doesn't want the idea to get

about that he and his Government are anti-Christian, he is going to have to

ask himself how it comes about that he is rapidly alienating most of us.
