THE VERY LEFT-WING "THINK TANK" EKKESIA (UK) PRESENTED THE VIEWS OF THE GREEN PARTY, BUT FLAMING RAINBOW PERSON (I WILL NOT USE "MAN" OR "GENTLEMAN" TO DESCRIBE HIM) PETER TATCHELL AS TO ST. GEORGE. BELOW IS MY LETTER TO THAT UK ORGANIZATION.
Mr. Peter Tatchell is of the worst sub-class of liars, those who use half-truths to corrupt history and subtract from the sub-total of human knowledge. His declaration that the father of St. George was "Turkish" seems to ignore the fact that there were no Turks in Anatolia in his time. To declare that St. George's mother was a "Palestinian" appears to be some perverted effort to link that warrior with the Arab occupiers of parts of today's Holy Land whose commitment to following Mohammed's instructions to use murder, genocide, perpetual war and the other horrors contained within the Koran and Hadith is too apparent in today's events and has been in that area since Muslim bandits occupied that land.
To the whores-of-history as tell such lies as Mr. Tatchell, I note that St. George is the multi-national (In the true Churches of East and West) symbol of the perpetual war against evil and the Evil One and of such of his all too eager helpers as the Mr. Tatchell. His statements are proof that the Evil One is "The Father Of Lies".
My key question for today is: Why do you assist in the lying work of the Evil One? My secondary question is: Why does the RC Church in the UK do the same?
News Brief
St George hailed as a human rights campaigner
By staff writers
24 Apr 2008
The Patron Saint of England (and a number of other countries) has been hailed a human rights campaigner by fellow activist Peter Tatchell - who backs ideas that his national day should be a public holiday celebrating dissent.
"It is time we ditched the myths surrounding St George and celebrated the reality of his courageous life", said Tatchell - who is a prospective Green candidate in Oxford, and has gained widespread media attention for his direct action campaigns for Tibet, against Robert Mugabe, and for the LGBT group OutRage!
"St George's Day should be a national holiday in England. We should celebrate St George as a symbol of freedom, dissent and multiculturalism," says the human rights activist.
"He doesn't belong to the far right. He represents multiculturalism and rebellion against tyranny.St George wasn't white or English. He was a rebel from the Middle East. His father was Turkish and his mother probably Palestinian. He rebelled against the Roman Emperor Diocletian and was executed for opposing the persecution of Christians by the Romans."
"An early defender human rights, he is a heroic symbol of protest and the right to freedom of belief and expression."
"St George's parentage embodies [many nations] and his life expresses the values of English liberalism and dissent," said Mr Tatchell.
Catalonia, Portugal, Beirut, Moscow, Istanbul, Germany and Greece are among the numerous other principalities claiming a historical or mythological link with St George.
The idea of St George as dissident was proposed last year by the religion and society think-tank Ekklesia, whose report entitled When the Saints Go Marching Out: Redefining St George for a new era points out that the original story which dates from the 4th century CE told of St George offering hospitality to a refugee, defending the marginalised, and challenging the persecution policy of the Emperor.
This image has been distorted, and replaced by one of a dragon slayer who backs the crusades (religious wars), the report says.
A new painting of St George by highly regarded artist Scott Norwood Witts, which depicts the saint as a man of compassion rather than a crusader, has been unveiled at the Roman Catholic Cathedral of St George, Southwark, this week.

I think the English are trying to turn the Muslims in their country into proper English folk. Give 'em a little space, a little recognition and emphasize a connection to England. Doubt if it will work. The Germans have been trying to turn their Muslim Guest Workers into proper Germans for some time now too. Not much success. They won't leave and they won't assimilate. Oops.
I don't see much problem with calling George's dad a Turk though there were no Turks anywhere in the neighborhood at the time. The Turks aren't Turkish now either. They are Anatolians first and foremost. Back when they invented farming they may have spoken some sort of Indo-European language. Later, conquered by Greeks they spoke Greek. But they never thought like Greeks. They were later conquered by Turks. They never thought like Turks either. They remain stubbornly Anatolian. There are very few ethnic Turks in the country. A village here and there. I've had a number of Turkish friends. They're Muslim in the same sense that fish are Muslim.
