"Originally, when describing the sort of church I wanted to start, I'd tell my Bible college friends that I was going to start a working class church, to which many of them would tell me that they work, so they're working class. What I meant by "working class" was the culture and aspirations of working class people. So in order to better distinguish my meaning, I started calling it "chav church", because the word "chav" describes a working class person. One of the bonuses of this was that it put Christians off coming to our church. This means that 90 percent of our church members are "unchurched" – they've never been part of a church before. The culture is very different from a normal church, and the aspirations of the people in our church are very different too."

Sounds like real Christianty to me.

Matthew 11:12
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

Obviously that doesn't mean that Christians are to be violent, so it must mean that it is the violent that usurp the kingdom of God by the use of violence.
