For I am the way, the truth and
the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. - Jesus (John 14:6) *** Warning: By saying he is a Catholic, Tony Blair is trying to deceive people and lead them away from the
tuth of Jesus Christ. This article is meant to inform you of the error. Jesus Christ says generally the opposite of Tony Blair's
comments below. ***
Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair may have made his fame as the re-shaper
of Britain's political culture, but now he is travelling the world in an effort to remake himself as a world leader in
"faith." Blair was invited to Toronto to speak to the Canadian Club on Friday by the Belinda Stronach Foundation.
In September 2008, the Belinda Stronach Foundation, founded by the heavily pro-abortion and left-leaning Liberal party representative
of Newmarket, Ontario, announced its partnership with the Tony Blair Faith Foundation in promoting the Faiths Act Fellowship.
The program has been described by British pro-life advocates as having "deep pro-abortion roots." Shortly
after leaving office and only a few months after being received into the Catholic Church, Blair began to remake himself as
a leader in "faith," in part by establishing his foundation. He described the aim of the foundation to the Star,
saying, "It is true there are two faces of faith: one reactionary, extreme, occasionally violent; the other, compassion,
love, fellowship and solidarity." "So the task for the foundation is: first, to help people understand different
faiths better so they can understand different cultures more fully; and, second, to promote faith as part of progress and
reconciliation, not a focus for conflict and sectarian divisions." Although he is regularly described as having
"converted" to Catholicism shortly after leaving office, many British Catholics have decried Blair's refusal
to recant his support for a number of positions deeply opposed to Catholic moral teaching, including his adamant support for
legal abortion and the virulently secularist homosexualist political agenda. Pro-life and pro-family advocates have described
Blair as the "architect" of Britain's anti-life social culture and his political program as one of the most
destructive to traditional Christian values in Britain's post-war history.
