The conversion of agnostic High Tories to the Anglican church is always rather suspect. It seems too pat and predictable, too clearly a matter of politics rather than faith.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Die Umwandlung von agnostischen High Tories in die anglikanische Kirche ist immer eher suspekt. Es scheint zu klug und vorhersehbar, zu eindeutig eine Frage der Politik und nicht des Glaubens.

I've been speaking at churches for years, as well as juvenile jails, rehabs and hospitals, and I always talk about my faith. That is a declaration of my relationship with God.
