so this is done by the, the debate about some of the most controversial issues is happening in the christian faith. and it's causing us some to question the future of the church. i'm scared out huge. and on this episode of the 360 view, we're going to look at the divide happening with in the christian church and what effect the churches demise could have globally. let's get started. the the greek word for church translates roughly to something like cold out from the world, forgot it controversial debates occurring across the globe today regarding gay marriage transgender rights. reparations, and abortion are causing

a major divisions within the church. faithful. these debates are not only occurring within the pews, but the leadership also cannot find the unified stance on these issues. his putting the future of the church all in jeopardy. however, religion is a major influence on the culture of the country as well as its absence. and why some say the split could have more than just the spiritual ramifications is. now one member of the clergy who has not been afraid to voice his concerns as to where the church is going is begin at calvin robinson. now calvin is the deacon and the anglican church, and a g, b, and presenter for a show called common sense crusade. welcome calvin talbot, do you think christianity is the religion of the west? any more and if not, what is materialism? woke isn't uh, that's if there is a religion of the west of christianity, especially shapes the west and the west is built on christian,

princeton. ready is less than civilization is the result of christendom. but we all host christianity. and where do we live in a pros post? the truth was if there is a religion of the west, it probably as low to this, but i'm say work. this is more of a 9 to religion. it's a set of value. ready that are ever shifting, ever changing is not something you can subscribe to. because if you join today, it will be the same tomorrow. so actually, i'm not, not too sure, and i want to be honest with you. now at the same time, we're seeing this disappearance of christianity from the public space. so i can a, what we also see a rise in the number of mazda migrants to places like england or europe. is this going to lead to a clash within those societies? or fundamental change and the way they operate. very good question. yes, that's a close. it is the nature of. ready was a vacuum right? as christianity has stepped aside from the public square as the predominant religion and just in england in particular, christianity is now

a minority. faith is law miss stepping up to fill that gap. so it is not just because of my separation, but of course that contributes massively to it. but as long as growing because of both rates of christians just hold on to having children the work people outside of . ready because in the average and all that onto the engine, it's bad to have children because back the environment. partly the so christians on the work lot on having kids, but mostly is all. so is a simple case of that out reading us, which means that some points in the future probably the near future as long will become the predominant face of england. and i suspect that would be a similar situation in many other countries around the west, which will lead to the question of what does that mean? which sets of values all the values that the country has to like, for example, the bridge values how. ready is being christian values, but all of it written is no longer a christian country of u. k. as in the christian country, people don't know what british values arguable. but as,

as long grows and grows and, you know, share your thoughts pop up left, right and centre move. i mean the really strong. ready become islamic values all the other way around. how it all happen, state the christian values, all rooted in the truce, unreturned goodness and beauty. i don't think as long as the same because it's, it is obviously a christian heresy. there's probably quite dangerous to rich countries values around as long, and if you look around, well, this is predominantly as i'm a country. so we can see that actually they're not the best places to live. so i wouldn't want my country to take on both those values, but it's not to me, it's up to the majority of the majority of people don't know. ready want to be christian and the majority of people and their loved ones have children and then we're left with whatever is left over. now in the okay, we've seen people jailed for things like praying silently outside of abortion, facilities or for public preaching against homosexuality. are the u. k, and parts of the west became a anti christian. and alongside of that is the debate on

a gender neutral god impossible reparations for slavery. these are all so issues being debated outside of the church. will there be this ripple effect in society by the charges decision and does this reveal the level of power of the modern church? absolutely. we'll see. ready must have increased and christopher, it'd be a peaceful and tolerance of christians and to the christian faith in a way that then look for other people in other sites. you know, any other face is to be celebrated. and i think it comes to actually quite a racist place. it is very, is a patronized thing assumption that i think for and is exotic to be held on a pedestal. whereas anything all road is to be generated. it looks down upon and that's what we're saying. with christianity, and it's getting to the point where it is and told her that stuff is not quite persecution, but we're reaching that point, as you quite rightly pointed out the questions of being arrested in this country. folk praying silently in their overheads. that's something that i would expect to see in the middle east. i would not expect to see it in an. ready circle like.

ready progressive west and democracy but then all we even liberal. ready who was certainly progressive, but emotional, that's a good thing. yes. a christians all being a pest usage starting to be persecuted to the point to be arrest. ready but also just mentioning anything to do with christ in the public square, we'll get you off the size and we'll get you cost aside. and we have to also question why, why do they don't know what christians pray. why didn't and it won't crushes speaking about price is because i would say is because they know the truth. they know that there is power and not what in the name of christ. they know that here's the truth, the way of the life, and they are afraid of that. and they won't take more about. they want to deny that because they want to chase the road and personal selfish ambitions and, and their involve use which all talented to thoughts. but they know deep in the hawks that they're on the wrong path. recently the anglican church had come to

a fork in the road, like so many other protestant denominations. what is this main reason and is this divisiveness with in the church allowing the persecution from the outside? yeah, the churches split between christians and non christians. there are many, many people in the church, especially the higher up we go. this becomes the case of who all establishment essentially, especially the church. we live the liberal progressive while to work. but you know, metric listen, live. ready a liter types to have a such a well for you that isn't actually in line with the christian world to you. but it ok because they want to be seen as nice. people are the focus of lice, of address because to be good means following the bible. and that's difficult, especially in, in the modern context. so they want to be seen as nice by the people around them in the world. so they've been living in the world and also all of the world as we know, the bible tells us we're supposed to be in the world but not comfortable. so what's

happening here is that people look in the actual loans or chasing societal loans and trying to drug the church along with them to be progressive. and i struggle with that because that's not the way cool to do because the disciple the nation. so i called the live a life in christ a how as he demonstrates to us, and if we're not doing that or how can we call ourselves christians really now the same time as christianity is diminishing the west. we see a massive rise in the christian population and conversations and places like africa . what is behind this disparity between the 2 regions? was quite simple. the disparity between the african continents and western europe is the in the western europe. well like just west new york in west charges. so in scotland where. ready of the usa, canada, australia, numbers of people that go to church, all plummeting, and that's directly correlated with the churches approach to. christian teaching.

as in the church is no longer teaching, most involved with teaching. watson society is teaching the culture and, and we look at 2 places like africa and in southeast asia where they are preaching the gospel. and the address is good. it's a direct connection. all you have to do is teach the truth as christ gave it to us as he revealed it to us. another church guys as a result of the many, something that start teaching the culture. instead this josh dies and shrivels. why it seems obvious advice because it is, i don't know why the west in charge is of looking towards africa. are these the well, i think what we need to see is going to of the british empire, for example, set missionaries around the world since the christian faith around the world in the tradition of i only say i can recognize them, right? so what we need to see now is within this form or i will come back to the united

kingdom. i define july's missionaries from africa, from india has come over to england. i did re evangelize us. now, are you seeing the church? i'm quoting and what does this mean for the future? yeah. ready all of these issues of a massive issues. so to tell them briefly, but reparations, for example, the trash can set aside 100000000, was a 100000000000, a height above analysis q, 50 new to this number, to give away a 100000000 to give her out as reparations. but when court, reparations, and some of these people, but happy and effective by the transatlantic slate right now. the live today owned slaves and the trends atlantics. i trade in no alive today. it was a slight transatlantic frederick. so i'm not sure what i mean by a given this money to communities that have been affected by the transatlantic matrix. but what it is, it's more of that you're signaling as. ready or appearing nice, walton during good. if the judge has that kind of money to be throwing around the

should be throw partials, we have $70.00 parishes, orthodontist country. and we live in a parochial system. but cannot afford to live cut off what just suffice. churches are closing an increase, so looking off the $1450.00 injections, which isn't completely unsustainable, entirely unrealistic of what we're saying is that the, another read, that's another reason the churches diagnose the country. so if the judge has money, they should be getting the and likewise, all of these other issues, if i'm transgender, which isn't a thing in the christian faith, he didn't go with me, does male and female he made those in his image is quite simple. as in genesis right at the beginning, so that the trash was take no doctrine again, then it's gonna solve the consequences that like why so gay marriage has this thing as gay marriage, that some of the more marriage is heterosexual and middle class. i mean in a liberal progress society people can do whatever they. ready want sure, the whole march, at least on a christian context, it just doesn't exist,

not to say that you know, in the secular world you can get married and in this country there is such a thing, said since march and 2nd of all, but you comp and got into the church and what the church is, the amount is set that will actually come and now the church and then does go to bless. same sex couples within. ready secular marriages, which is almost like saying it come those them or adults as them. and they're offering, taught to bless something that he has identified as soon. so god called, bless, think up doesn't bless him. go tells us to move away from sense of the charges directly heading towards him. which is even worse than dragging us into a cost to see with the risk of teaching is driving people to how you're digging robinson to stick around. because after the break, we're going to talk about if christianity is the only major religion facing this device, the

the the at the end of the 18th century, great britain began to conquer and colonize australia. from the very beginning of the british penetration to the continent. natives were subjected to severe violence and deliberate extra patient. according to modern historians. in the 1st 140 years, there were at least 270 massacres of local

b. both any resistance to the british was answered with double cruelty. hundreds of natives were killed for the murder of one settler. indigenous australians were not considered complete people. no wild beast of the forest was ever hunted down with such unsparing perseverance as they are. men, women and children are shot whenever they can be met with squatter, henry, my rake wrote in a letter to his family in england, in $1846.00 plus scro you as fast is rightly described as blood. so and racist eve at the beginning of colonization, there were one and a half 1000000 indigenous people living on the continent. then by the beginning of the 20th century, their number had degrees still 100000 people. despite the indisputable historical facts, the problem of full recognition of the crimes of white australians against aborigines has not been resolved so far.

the welcome back. today we are talking about the struggles in the modern christian church. we are joined by our guests. begin at calvin robinson. welcome back. deacon robinson. you know, calvin, why are we not seeing the same debate happening in other major religions like is um, buddhism and hinduism. yeah, this. i mean, the momentum is 6, the face as it is pretty much, most of the time. same as most of the face. you know, they say this is all right, this won't believe west is good. okay. then when they criticize all or attempt to change the law offices phase, because it's steve as well offensive, and it's not going to be offensive to for us to be offensive to your own people thus thus far. which again is why christianity isn't easy,

taught it because it's seen is all religion. therefore they can look at and say well. ready has values are out of date. now we're going to court as to what we currently believe as a secular society. therefore you need to change that. he would never in a 1000000 is say, that's a to a 100. and because that will be seen as well. i suppose racist, obviously as long as it rates, but you get where i'm coming from is this is in the mentality. this is how they see things. we should be having this conversation, we should say, no, eva, all of these religions have to take a boss, waco. okay, march. all religions get to stick to their own values and their own belief in their own teachings. you called say that christianity has to change to it up to the time so that everything else can stay the same. that's not right. so that's not just, you know, christianity once again is the most persecuted religion in the world. and this has been a trend for many years. what has the church done to stop the genocide of their own? and why not anything less the $1000000.00 question. christianity is the best past due to religion the world, and we look around the world,

the places where it is past due to and again, it comes back to predominantly islamic countries past due christians horribly. but also, you know, hostile states like china and pretty much everywhere around the. ready that isn't the christian country cushions are past due to the church as a whole isn't standing up and say no, this is not good. there's a lot. okay, we need to fix this is fight against this. the church has become weak and feeble. it is not good for christians to smoke as a gold wheel made to worship him. and if what if people of being persecuted, washington have a little enabling them to do so. they will let him go. but you know, this is all. this is all prophesies and the church grows where it is past use it in the face, grows ways past due to so maybe as best i can maybe as well part of the other i just, i just feel shame actually the as a, as a western christian the western church is doing nothing. so people that are plastic

use it for all face around the world. why is there almost a media and political silence in regards to the global targeting of christians? when you often see this outraged violence targeted at other religions? yeah, we have a to to mentality of. everyone else is to be held up in esteem. and christians ought to be done a great ends us. it seems to be acceptable. now even even the pope himself has not really made a strong effort to fix the situation in china and his having to commit to china. ready both parties we need i'm going to get charged. i think it's called factual call, but i'm not trying to get into it. but we need just lead us to, to, to stand up for the face at home and abroad when he is the a companion so that we can say barriers between one minute of the moment i, we need the catholic church to stand up and say catholics around the world of being

past due to this is not okay, you must stop there so we can do something about that. that's most of your career sites are gonna say come you, that's not gonna happen, but you know me, we need to do something. so what has been in your response from your colleagues for outspoken comments regarding the church and their controversial stances? the same appears have been wonderful, very sports. ready lots of people reaching out say thank you've seen what you're saying and all that kind of stuff, which is great. it really is as nice. i just wish more people would stand up and speak out. um i do debates at the oxford union recently, i guess 3 bishops who were all set to try to drive the tractor to us see i guess just myself and talk to you and pull his great deal. ready but neither of us all, you know, in any form of authority and the church, as it had turned out to be of a debate that was 6 people against us too because the 2 people are outside of the fighting for organ. ready or the proposition instead of the opposition because

people are so cowardly. i don't think people have become comfortable, especially less than christians have become comfortable in the church. christians expect to be lots of be expected to die for our face. and today we have a so comfortable i just looked at what happened and demick, how quick people watch close that church those because that's what we'll talk. he's with him to do not the government still authorities in the church, at least over here in the u. k. you know that the government says i'm on a central services, have to close in a church that will close to inside archie or whatever. whether that's ridiculous reason. but priests just said no, they should have it. i love it. my church has open to the faithful masses that we have. we have fear of god's affair because it will all be sure. ready all the sacraments of,

of holy communion. the eucharist is how we demonstrate all faith, not mosques, not vaccines. tests, all these new rituals that they go to. other the priests should have said, i'm going to go around looking on those that someone sick. i'm going to take them groceries all the pretty sure said, i'm going to hold mass as i normally do. if people start off from us, they can and should because that's one of the closest christ and the people to do that to the fellow priest due to that. but that should've been uniform, not one priest should have close the church, those the late to the free from us as well as themselves. the church went about to be honest. and you can go as a patient, go to a church of the mason's thoughts as to check for it has to be called raphael parishioners. while the top has evil. that's all that is totally priestly called probably for the right. ready that's what we have the cure of souls in a hurricane system. there's something different all going on there. the priest sort of sit up and said no arrest me,

killing me to what you need to me. but i am not going to stop doing one whole to do for god. what is the status of a religious freedom around the globe? i'm not sure what people believe in religious freedom as they used to just look at america, it was sets up as a christian country, no heat. well, it wasn't a country to state, so the states was set top of christian states explicitly. so this was an estimate statements as they filed at each states, and now everyone, just most of them are fixed. yeah. i think of separation of church and state. it's a secular country. is that okay, so already they've, they've lost that christian. i didn't a, to some degree, but not necessarily pete the people, but the infrastructure itself. and we're seeing the other here to we, we all the christian country in the head stages, the head of the church. and we have bishops in a house of louis. but even here, christianity is no longer in a majority and we'll see you must have shift away from it. so what, what mean?

well, in the u. k. have no idea that around the rest of the world, it tells it tends to mean that's without a predominant face. a big a. we gotta see a mess. we're gonna see a lot of values like a religion, like a belief. and the whole purpose of america being set up as christian country was that this is what. ready built in the country on and being a christian country means that you have that religious freedom to be a christian, all not a christian. and the same in england. the whole purpose of us being a christian country with bishops in our house of laws with the clean water king as the head of the church means that because we all christian country, people have the freedom to wash it or not to worship the freedom to be christians or not to the questions and the moment you you lose the default option of being a christian we get into that mess of so what all. ready i need because the, the work mall decided geology of most system. it says. ready instincts isn't the

same default and they have on this and we can rely and pretend the best man and women of the same. but we know that different, not saying that equally and equally valued under it and go sized, but i think that different. so the men and women airports at mother and fort mothers and fathers are important. and now we've reached the point of society and we've actually saves less much the hetcher normal activity as if that's a good thing as having a mother and father is somehow back now and we need to promote the idea of having to foster to mothers all it is one of each 0, $1.00 of the best rather. and so that's one part of that. the cultural side, the secular side of breaking down a way of life from oxygen. but the other side is of course the dental and the slow . so you get to, to price the higher up you get in the charge all the more of the clean. ready all the picky a platform, low to the floor, to your reach, the more the devil's going to come to you. so of course the devil's been infiltration the church since day one, of course he has because he wants to undermine it. and of course everything we do,

he's the trying to undermine what we're doing every time to try to preach the gospel he's, you know, tried to twist the truth and that's what he does. he uses hoff truths to, to promote the lie. and we're seeing that while again, with the transmit video mind can become a one another. one of these things are rooted in health truths. and it does the easiest way to show the light or people stripes. and of course, that's why the devil has been tried to destroy the chest. the devil can never destroy the trash can the charges, christ body, and the church big see willow which divide in christ and make sure that it doesn't mean that churches call be destroyed. a churches comp time, whether away and i think that's what was said right now with the western church. thank you so much and the can cabinet robinson for being on our program today as well. i'm sorry now here's and this has been a your 360 view. thanks for watching the

release of come to the russian states. never as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best ingles, all sense and up the in the 6595 and speed. what else calls question about this? even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin machine, the states on the russians cruising and split the ortiz full neck, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube. the services for the question, did you say even closer to the

i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings, except we're so shorter is that conflict with the 1st law show alignment of the patient. we should be very careful about visual intelligence. the point obviously

is to trace a trust rather than to the various jobs. i mean with the artificial intelligence we have so many with him in the a robot most protects his phone, existence was only exist. 2 2 for most national security whistle blowers, the most common and consequential dilemma is what to do when you become aware of waste, fraud, abuse, or illegality. but you know that exposing it will put you in legal jeopardy. this is a particularly tough question in the united kingdom, which has a draconian official secrets act. do you do what you know in your heart is the right thing and go public. do you risk spending the rest of your life in prison?

or do you put your head down and just remain silent? i'm john, carry onto and this is the whistle blowers the.
