[...] Pompous, self-serving, proud and vain? Who can Mr Green, the self-styled Voice of All Christians who has compared himself to John the Baptist, be talking about? [...]

Instead of rhetoric and namecalling (‘fundamentalists’), lets have some proper arguments.

As between someone who has only rhetoric and someone who can argue, everyone knows whom one should listen to.

It was very naive to post the names and addresses in the first place.

On the other hand, it was justified if all other avenues had been extensively tried in the past & proved to be dead ends. The BBC may have had standard replies etc without reading the detail of people’s complaints.

Depending on how far people listen or dont listen, more extreme action can sometimes be required. As in the cases of the suffragettes and Martin Luther King.

He’d probably be delighted to get some abusive calls and emails – it’d fit in nicely with his martyr delusion and in his eyes confirm his prejudices about the evils of modern society. Hell, that’s probably why his details are there in the first place, he’s daring the heathens to have a go!

Although it is very tempting to phone up this idiot, or send him mail, or even picket his house, it will almost certainly be counter-productive. Quite apart from the fact that it would be stooping to his level, there is also the likelihood that Green would actually enjoy it. It would only serve to confirm his sense of biblical mission and feed his hunger for martyrdom:

2Tim 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

His address and phone number are still on his site. It would be a shame if someone abused this kind man’s trust now, wouldn’t it

Green has his home address and phone number on the Christian Voice website, or at least he used to!

Is publishing home addresses legal? Stephen Green seems to have got away with it whatever. I agree with your general point though, I think these people need a dose of their own medicine. Counter demos against their pickets and protests at their churches might be a good place to start.

I read in todays TImes that;
“The group gained notoriety after it circulated the home addresses and telephone numbers of senior BBC figures when Jerry Springer — The Opera was screened on BBC Two last month.”
Would be an *awful* shame if someone were to publish the home addresses and phone numbers of members of Christian Voice, especially Stephen Green, wouldn’t it ?
