Tony Blair's faith mission

Tony Blair's faith in new mission

By Christopher Landau
BBC religious affairs correspondent



Mr Blair says he is committed to his faith project for the long-term

As prime minister, he famously "didn't do God" but, having left office, Tony Blair is travelling the world to launch his new Faith Foundation. The BBC has had exclusive access to the foundation's early work.
On a cold winter's day in the American university town of Yale, Tony Blair is preparing for a new challenge – teaching.
His new inter-faith foundation has linked with Yale University and launched a new course, on Faith and Globalisation.

Blair's Great Leap of Faith

Quote:
The Vatican thinks it has bagged the elephant with conversion to Catholicism of the former British prime minister Tony Blair on the eve of Christmas [2007].

Blair certainly believes it is a monumental event, implying that, along with the 19th-century Anglican priest John Henry Newman, he is the church's biggest catch.

That man is a dangerous extremist. He's no better than Osama Bin Laden in my opinion.

Re: Tony Blair's faith mission

Tony Blair got so much intellectual potential, he just has to have a "Mission Impossible" to be challenged enough and by Zeus he'll be busy for the rest of his dear earthly life with that mission.
