Pause For Thought On Radion Two

[grannie39]

am i right in thinking that this is supposed to be a Christian country, then why on the most important week of the church calendar, i. e. Holy Week, have we had to listen to the Jewish people talking about the passover, during Pause for thought, nothing against, Judaism, but come on the BBC have pushed christianity to the back row again.

As an atheist, I regard the whole lot as total rubbish but the BBC is hardly ignoring Easter:

So giving over a few minutes to remember that it's also an important time of year for other faiths doesn't seem unreasonable to me.

Further, this morning's Pause for Thought seemed to have more to do with with the importance of encouraging children to ask questions, and always finding time to answer them, than with promoting any particular faith.

You haven't 'had to listen' to anything. It's not an Orwellian state just yet.

Christianity's roots are in Judaism...think about it. Maybe the BBC wants to educate.

Thanks douglas/Buenchico (Though I still don't get the connection)

[douglas9401]

It's a typo in the question, factor.

Thanks Douglas. What a silly sud I am

I expect they were apologising ;-)

I might have got this wrong but wasn't Jesus Jewish ? He can't have been a Christian as this religion wasn't invented until after he died.
