A local council is set to remove a cross from a crematorium window to make it more ‘inclusive’ – even though no one appears to have ever complained about the Christian symbol. The plan, at Haycombe Crematorium in Bath, has prompted concern from residents with one warning of ‘creeping secularisation’. One of the locals who has expressed disquiet at the proposed move is Hugh Mackay, who lives near the crematorium. He said: ‘It seems there is a determined secular campaign to try and obliterate our religious heritage in our country. The council says it is not to upset people of all faiths but I’ve talked to Hindus, Muslims and Jews and none of them have ever complained. They all respect the cross as a symbol of the Christian faith. Some of us feel very trongly that this is a deliberate attempt by the council to downplay our Christian heritage.’

Pray: for the council in this case to rethink their misguided political correctness. (Ps.105:1)
