An article in the Niagara Anglican (page 3) by Michael Burslem maintains that we need a new Christian creed: thus we have the Apostles’ creed, the Nicene creed and now the Burslem creed.
The new creed begins, Allah Achbar! – God is great. The only problem is, this is not the Christian God: it is the god invoked by – among others – Hamas torturers: here they scream his name while beating someone senseless:
Anglican Samizdat 
People with good intentions are not necessarily Christians.

So I started reading Burslem’s Creed, and began scrawling out responses to each of his crackpot stanzas of revisionist Christianity. But then, I came to the following section and put my pen down, because this guy isn’t a revisionist at all…he is a complete rejectionist. There is no Jesus in here to be revisioned!
“As a Christian I do believe that God was in Jesus, a man born in a stable who died on a cross, and that through him, somehow, the world has been reconciled to God. However, I also believe that Christians err if they think themselves to be the only beneficiaries of God’s love. It is because so many Christians do think this that I have deliberately left his name from the “creed.””
But to even top that…we get the final line:
“I now believe that the God whom we worship is by far greater than the God of the Bible.”
Diocese of Niagara…ichabod.
