General discussions If it's not theological, then it's considered, "general".

Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD your God.

Opinions needed on this new 'Act'

The Tony Blair Faith Foundation: Faiths Act

Am I wrong in thinking that it is one more ecumenical attempt to gather us all together as one world religion? I'd really like to know the thoughts of the PB on this.
One major red flag is that Richard Dawkins approves of it!

While eradicating hunger is important (especially in light of what we typically spend our money on over here) my belief is that this could be a distraction. Well intentioned, but not the function of an international group of churches. The solution would be for governments to take the shackles off individual churces and denominations and let them do this on their own, for their own reasons.

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom converted to the Roman Church (from nominal Church of England) right after leaving office. Unfortunately, that didn't prevent him from promoting abortion, sexual immorality and other anti-life issues while in office.

He's a talented man with some real moral reserve, but is getting totally lost in the religiosity of men and the ways of the world. Pray for him.
