July 2015 in Law and Where There Is Still a Deeply Rooted Sense of Britain Being a Christian Country, Despite Society’S Radical Secularisation View from the Rectory We live in a country where freedom of religion is enshrined July 2015 in law and where there is still a deeply rooted sense of Britain being a Christian country, despite society’s radical secularisation. However, headlines relating to matters of faith are sensational or distorted and reporting is often deeply racist - especially when it comes to the topic of Islam. This impacts directly on the lives of British Muslims across the UK. Some of the stories that are emerging are painful and disturbing. Muslim women in particular are bearing the brunt of Islamophobic abuse - verbal and physical - on the streets, at schools and colleges, in the office and online. The Everyday Bigotry Project has found that many Muslims are internalising islamophobia and it is being seen as normal to encounter such prejudice. And even to accept it as ‘this is just what happens now!’ One friend of mine, a devoted and principled British citizen who happens to be Muslim, spoke openly and movingly of a series of recent encounters which reflected his growing uneasiness and a growing sense of fear and isolation. I share his view that the actions of extremists are distorting and colouring what ordinary British people are thinking and feeling about Muslims. I have witnessed this first hand recently. Even in the school his children attend, where after years of hardship they are now loved and safe, a Christian school, he encounters prejudice and latent bigotry from Upper Kennet Churches Notice Board fellow parents, and so do his children. His wife feels increasingly uncomfortable wearing the hijab (headscarf) that Baptisms marks her out as a woman of faith and devotion to his faith, Elodie Hallam Winterbourne Monkton 14 June Thomas Butler Avebury 28 June even as do crosses, pentacles or the Star of David. As someone who has been spat at for wearing the clergy collar Weddings and ridiculed for being a woman priest in this country, I have Hannah Sutcliffe & West Overton 6 June not encountered such bigotry when I have travelled in the Andrew Oram Middle East as a follower of Jesus, except from Evangelical Christians. Oh the irony! Stuart Marshall and Nicola Bailey will be getting married In our villages we are truly blessed to have a wide variety this month at Avebury and Robert Kitson and Rosalind of people of Faith, whether we share that faith or not. I Baring will be getting married at Fyfield, and we would like to think that we can meet people where they are, remember them in our prayers. accept them for what they are and support them when they are subjected to racism, bigotry or sexism. I would like to Burial of Ashes think we are communities where we get to know people for Violet Truby Broad Hinton 12 June who they are and not attribute to them the actions and beliefs of extremists. I am delighted that we have more people living amongst us who believe that this is the hall mark of humanity. I pray that we have the courage to work together Kennet Valley Fun Day to overcome bigotry, ignorance and latent aggression - especially when it is founded not in fact but in deeply rooted 20th June prejudice and ignorance.
