In my weekly column for Worldnetdaily.com today I point out that:
“Fifty years ago, the queen of England traveled to Jamestown for the 350th anniversary of the birth of America in 1607. At Jamestown Festival Park, she visited a giant Christian cross that had been erected just months before “in gratitude” for the Christian men and women who gave their lives for future generations....
“But there will be no “official” Christian monuments placed when the queen returns in May for the 400th.
“In fact, there will be no new monuments.
“Gratitude is simply not a priority for officials who have banned the use of the word “celebration” and who view the displacement of paganism by Christianity as an embarrassment.
“Edward Rothstein of the New York Times put it this way: “[N]ow, two months before the 400th anniversary festivities begin, the monumental hardly matters anymore, and neither, it seems, does John Smith. ... what will [the queen] find? Not the triumph of British influence, but the triumph of ambiguity, discomfort and vague multiculturalism.”
