THE END

Due to a recent health scare it has been decided that it would not be wise for me to continue with Grain. I hope soon to be able to contribute the occasional piece to Prophecy Today and TCW Defending Freedom. I would like to thank all those who have supported Grain through the years, your patience and encouragement has been greatly appreciated. Now it only remains to sign off as Looney Tunes…

THE HATRED THEY DARE NOT NAME

If a government wishes to keep something away from public attention, what do they do? The simplest thing is to give people something else to think about. This is the tactic used by our ruling elites. We are constantly told we should be afraid of the dangers of the ‘far right’ in order to draw our attention away from the real challenge facing the UK today, Islamism. This deflection tactic reached…

If I were asked about writing, among the advice I would give would be ‘Never write whilst you are angry.’ You are liable to write things in the heat of the moment that you later regret, and you are liable to get carried away in your reasoning. For these reasons I decided a few days ago not to write this post. Axel Rudakubana We Should All Be Angry A subscriber had sent me a link to ‘Southport…

ONLY ISLAM

Nothing says Islam is a religion of peace quite as clearly as shooting someone dead for saying that Islam is not a religion of peace. Salwan Momika burns a copy of the Quran At the end of last month Salwan Momika, an ethnic Assyrian from Iraq, was murdered in a Sharia-style execution in his home in Sweden. At the time he was awaiting the verdict in his trial for ‘incitement to racial hatred’.…

IN THE FRONTLINE OF THE BATTLE AGAINST WOKE

Teachers deserve our encouragement, support and prayers as they try to navigate the treacherous waters of our woke educational system.

The USA seems to be in the midst of a welcome fightback against destructive woke ideology. On this side of the Atlantic we are still on the back foot as woke disciples relentlessly push their beliefs in every sphere of activity, nowhere more so than in our educational structures. From kindergarten to post-graduate study, all have been taken over by progressive teachers, lecturers and educational…

THE BISHOP GIVES VENT TO TRUMP DERANGEMENT SYNDROME

He Means Business This Time In his first hours as returning President, Donald Trump signed an order restoring biological truth and recognising ‘two sexes, male and female’, saying this is set at birth and cannot be changed. He ordered immigration officers to ramp up deportations of people in the country without authorisation. He signed executive orders to leave the World Health Organization and…

CRACKS BEGINNING TO SHOW IN THE CULT

It’s childish, I know, but it is entertaining to watch one’s opponents squabbling amongst themselves. Particularly when we witness some of our most effective opponents emerging on the right side, even if only this once. Progressives Are The Most Dangerous Fundamentalists There Are Atheists often characterise Christians, especially evangelicals, in fundamentalist terms. Evangelicals are seen as…

PROGRESSIVISM - THE SUICIDE NOTE OF A CIVILISATION

The UK has been cursed by our ruling elite. In politics, academia, media, police and the institutions which regulate our lives, the British establishment is tainted.   All Are Complicit Last week at PMQs Kemi Badenoch made Keir Starmer squirm as he tried to avoid accountability for the rape gang atrocities. It is just as true that the Tories who held power from 2011, when the phenomenon was…

CHRISTIANITY IS A DOWN AND DIRTY FAITH

Due to its wimpification the church in the West is declining in terms of numbers and influence. Christianity is no longer a culture-challenging force; rather it has become a meek handmaiden of progressivism. Amongst denominational hierarchies their greatest fears are the frowns of the chattering class. In mainstream denominations surface evidence of decline in belief is widespread. Pride flags…

PROGRESSIVE CONTEMPT FOR THE WHITE WORKING CLASS

There is a time to be angry. There is a time when it is a sin not to be angry. This is such a time. Some of the Rotherham Rape Gang I have served in the armed forces. I have been a prison chaplain. I have been a minister in one of the roughest parts of Glasgow. I am not naive. Yet I was unable to finish reading the details of the atrocities committed by a mainly Pakistani Muslim rape gang on…

WE CHRISTIANS ARE EXILES IN A COLLAPSING WORLD

Christianity was fundamental to the development of the West. It provided the forms of thought without which those institutions defining the West would likely never have emerged. Those institutions such as the rule of law, democracy, capitalism, science, education and the family, are  being undermined by the progressive left today. The Enlightenment and its commitment to bare rationality which…

OUR ART REFLECTS THE VALUES OF OUR SOCIETY

How many times have you entered an art gallery and had to peer at the small explanation at the side of a painting or sculpture before you knew what it was trying to convey? How do you know whether a piece of art is good or bad? One test is whether you understand what it is trying to say, or when its meaning if any has to be explained. The purpose of art is to communicate and if a piece of art…

THE IMPERIALISTIC INVASION THAT WASN'T

If we look at the Crusades in context we find that they were not a savage, rapacious assault launched upon a peace-loving, sophisticated culture. The Crusades were a response to five centuries of violently aggressive, imperialistic Islamic Jihad which had

Writing in the Telegraph Douglas Carswell finds the reason the UK faces increasing restrictions on free speech is fear: ‘Fear of Islamists who insist that their right not to be offended trumps your right to speak freely.’ The likelihood is that the Labour government will pass legislation based on the definition of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on British Muslims which sees Islamophobia as…

ONE OF THE WORLD'S OLDEST CHRISTIAN COMMUNITIES FACES DESTRUCTION

Islamist rebels have taken Damascus and the regime of Bashar al-Assad has fallen. The world rejoices and there are street celebrations by exiled Syrians in the major cities of the West. Politicians including Sir Keir Starmer welcome the fall of Assad’s ‘barbaric regime’ as a ‘very good thing for the Syrian people’. And the Christians of Syria flee. Young Syrian Christians worship where they…

BLACKEST OF FRIDAYS

Last Friday the House of Commons voted to begin the process whereby Parliament may legalise assisted suicide. This marked a significant change in the way our society thinks of the individual, the way we live together and our concept of care. There are immediate dangers which emerge from the change in underlying principle. The legalisation of same-sex marriage and the acceptance of transgenderism…

FREE SPEECH LOSS IS NO LAUGHING MATTER

Free speech is in greater peril in the UK today than at any time since 1945. Some may say I am exaggerating the dangers. David Hume reminds us that ‘It is seldom that liberty of any kind is lost all at once.’  We are not facing the harsh totalitarianism o

Many of the great anti-totalitarian novels of our times have been written by British writers and set in the United Kingdom. George Orwell’s ‘Nineteen Eighty-Four’ and ‘Animal Farm’, and Aldous Huxley’s ‘Brave New World’ stand out on any list. Anthony Burgess’s ‘A Clockwork Orange’ deserves mention as does Jasper Fforde’s ‘Shades of Grey’ and the graphic novel ‘V for Vendetta’ by Alan Moore and…

RISING TIDE OF ANTI-CHRISTIAN ATTACKS IN EUROPE

You won’t know about it if you rely on the mainstream media, but Christians throughout Europe are experiencing anti-Christian hate crimes at an alarming rate. Print media has rightly been filled with pages on the Orwellian raid by police on journalist Allison Pearson for an unspecified ‘non-crime hate incident’. Meanwhile it goes unreported that throughout Europe Christians are being harassed,…
