Trashing Christian monuments in England

It shouldn’t be surprising that a country whose celebrities and icons spend so much time trashing Christianity would produce this little act.  It’s nothing on one hand.  A tree venerated for centuries by Christians.  That sort of symbolic pilgrim stuff that our modern elites and super smart types typically snort at in derision.  But why chop it down?  Why destroy it?  Maybe it wasn’t done just because it was Christian.  But at best, it was done despite it being a Christian monument.  And that’s disturbing enough.  Certainly it’s no surprise, England being what it’s become.
