Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s charity is developing ties with leading American religious figures in advance of an American “faith offensive,” the Guardian reports.
The Tony Blair Faith Foundation’s advisory council includes the Rev. Rick Warren, the California megachurch pastor, and David Coffey, president of the Baptist World Alliance. The foundation, which maintains headquarters in London, is a major focus of Mr. Blair’s activities since he left office in 2007; it promotes interfaith dialogue and cooperation on social and education projects.

If you think former Prime Minister and Rev Dr Rick Warren are in the mold of Iranian killers then you are badly mistaken. At least 90% of the charitable work in Haiti and the Gulf came from Christian charities. We need more not less of them.
