It already was several years back when the Guinness World Records found that the Bible had sold an estimated five BILLION copies and was history’s best best-seller. Ever. By hundreds of millions of copies.
Now a new survey shows that young Brits have adopted the leftist ideology that it contains “hate speech,” and a high number are ready to have it banned.
It is the Christian Post that described the polling by Whitestone Group that found nearly a quarter of young people in Britain “would ban the Bible if they felt its pages contained ‘hate speech.'”
The poll asked 2,088 residents, “Unless the offending parts can be edited out, books containing what some perceive as hate speech should be banned from general sale, including if necessary religious texts such as the Bible.”
“Young people aged 18 to 34 were the most likely to agree with this statement (23%), followed by 35 to 54 year olds (17%). Over-55s were least likely to agree (13%),” the report explained.
“We may no longer be a majority Christian population here in Britain. That’s even more reason to protect freedom of speech and belief for all,” explained Lois McLatchie, of the Alliance Defending Freedom UK.
She cited the horrors that have happened in Finland, where former Minister of the Interior Päivi Räsänen has been taken to court twice for simply citing the Bible, and forced to defend herself on criminal charges.
