Faith & Reason

I see the pope has been pontificating in Westminster Hall. Trying to play the victim he portrays the catholic church as being suppressed, marginalised and silenced by the secular majority in Britain. What a gross and vile distortion. Where is the evidence for this?

He also said we should “seek ways of promoting and encouraging dialogue between faith and reason at every level of national life”. 
I think in response I will quote a far better man.

“Those who believe without reason cannot be convinced by reason”
