There’s an alarming rumour going round (I call it a rumour because I couldn’t find it on the BBC website) that the government wants any material that criticises the current economic system to be banned from schools. I cannot believe this. Do the government really want to ban the Bible? This part of Luke 1 may be familiar to some… “He has shown strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts. He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly; he has filled the hungry with good things, and sent the rich away empty.”
