Is the BBC now a 'state religion'?

Archbishop Cranmer has a typically well-written piece that you must read in full, here's a short extract to whet your appetite:
'And so it came to pass, in this age of equality and non-discrimination, that BBC Chairman Chris Patten was declared co-redemptrix with a carpenter from Nazareth; that religious relativism trumps the King James Bible; that the ethos of the BBC is equivalent to the gospel of Christ; and that Broadcasting House now constitutes the Church of the state.

And Heaven help anyone who engages in unwanted conduct which has the purpose or effect of –

(a) violating the BBC’s dignity; or
(b) creating an intimidating, hostile, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for the BBC (Equality Act 2010 s26).

Religious freedom demands immunity from coercion in civil society. The state has reduced holiness to a form of social contract and relegated the peace of Christ to the absence of civil strife. There is no space for religious dissent: the imposition of the BBC’s liberal creed is now total.'
The thought police of political correctness and liberal bias are still in control, despite/because of ths Conservative led government.
