David Cameron out-Christians the Archbishop of Canterbury

Gerald Warner of the Telegraph, who regularly offers his opinion on many matters (for example, as a non climate scientist, on climate science) takes David Cameron to task for offering his opinion of Christian theology, as a non theologian.

Criticising Cameron’s new message of tolerance for gay people with reference to the Equality Bill, Warner wonders why Jesus didn’t pursue that same agenda, after all “Why did he [Jesus], for example, tell the woman taken in adultery to sin no more, instead of taking a laid-back, relaxed view of people’s couplings and uncouplings?” That’s right, being tolerant of other people’s homosexuality is analogous to not caring about adultery.

It was always axiomatic that if Dave Cameron wanted to display unimpeachable credentials as the Heir of Blair, then he would have to demonstrate that he had inherited the hotline to God, the divine inspiration and easy familiarity with the Deity that distinguished his predecessor. Nothing less would prove he was truly the reincarnated Lama. Now Dave has duly manifested his destiny as the anointed successor of Tony, by assuming supreme authority in matters spiritual as well as temporal.
