About this listen
Canterbury Cathedral is the oldest cathedral in England. Over the centuries, pilgrims like those in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales have worn grooves into its stone steps from ascending them on their knees.
But last week, the Church of England decided to allow the cathedral’s interior to be covered in graffiti — supposedly to reflect the voices of “marginalized communities.”
It’s hard to see how defacing a sacred space benefits anyone. In fact, it seems pretty insulting to suggest that vandalism is the best way to honor minority communities.
What it signals, more than anything, is the Church’s moral confusion and its profound contempt for the western culture that built it.
If church leaders truly want to connect with modern Britain, here’s a better way: stop chasing ridiculous fads. Start preaching Biblical truth and talk about Jesus instead.
