CWN Editor's Note: “Britian is no longer a Christian country,” Bishop Philip Egan of Portsmouth, England said in a pastoral letter released on December 1.
Bishop Egan was writing in response to the vote in Parliament to allow assisted suicide. “Although not unexpected, this vote poses a grave danger,” he wrote. “Britain is now crossing a line from which there will be no return.”
The bishop warned: “To be a Christian in the future will not be easy, if it ever was.”
