Bishop Nazir-Ali, who remains under police protection with his family, went on to warn that unless Christianity fills the current "spiritual and moral vacuum" that has grown in Britian over the last 50 years Islam could its place.
"Do the British people really want to lose that rooting in the Christian faith that has given them everything they cherish - art, literature, architecture, institutions, the monarchy, their value system, their laws?" he asked.

That vacuum? That may be a spiritual vacuum, but it's not a moral one. And it's the fault of the Church that people don't play Church anymore. Somebody said 'the future of Christianity is contemplative -- or there will be no Christianity.' The rote and rule and empty rite has created the vacuum.
