The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has been criticised for defending faith schools when they "prioritise evangelisation", according to a secular campaign group.
The Most Rev Welby defended faith schools, saying they are often in the poorest parts of the country.
But the National Secular Society (NSS) said Church of England schools "prioritise evangelisation over serving the population who are steadily abandoning his pews".
Asked about Birmingham City Council's inquiry into an alleged plot by Muslim hard-liners to seize control of governing bodies, the Archbishop told the BBC: "I can't talk about other faith schools, but it isn't much of a danger in Church of England schools."
The Trojan Horse allegations first came to light earlier this year, contained in an anonymous and unsigned letter, and have prompted separate on-going investigations by both the Department for Education and Ofsted.
Keith Porteous Wood, NSS executive director, said: "The Archbishop has jumped on the Birmingham Trojan Horse plot bandwagon to plug his Church's schools.
"The fundamentalism found in some minority schools is not seen in the Church's schools, as he says, but his Church is also banging the religious drum as hard as it can.
"He fails to point out that his schools, run entirely at public expense, prioritise evangelisation over serving the population who are steadily abandoning his pews."
The Most Rev Justin Welby reiterated his view that the UK is "a deeply Christian country".
But Mr Porteous Wood said this is a "self-serving claim" adding that Sunday church attendance has declined.
He said: "The Church's Establishment is often used as a justification by those claiming this is 'a deeply Christian country'.
"But Establishment, which Archbishop Welby is understandably so keen to retain, is an anachronism which these statistics of decline show the CofE has no justification or entitlement to.
"The UK should abandon the dwindling group of countries with established churches."
The Archbishop told the BBC that Church of England schools continued to "love and serve" as they "have done for hundreds of years".
Archbishop Welby also defended the role of faith schools within the education system, saying they remained "a very good use of social capital".
He said: "The way it's done with Church of England schools is that it's an expression of our love and service to the community.
"People seem to choose these schools in large numbers. They are often in the poorest parts of the country. We seek to love and serve people, as we should, through these schools - and have done for hundreds of years."
The Archbishop also said Christian faith was reflected in the "whole way we approach our national life".
He said the UK's "systems of justice and health, the way we value people, the basic way we look at the human being and the dignity of the human being, reflects the values of Jesus Christ".
He added: "We are a deeply Christian country in that way."

Politicians wont target terrorism - Naxal or Islamic. You wont go and vote for change either...
Then, how to save your life? Here are some tips...
- Stay at home as much as possible. Surf the net. If you use wi-fi, please keep it secure!
- Visit only places that have security guards in place or a CRPF contingent to guard. Like airports, Infosys, Bangalore or some other high security establishments.
- Do not travel at all. Definitely not by train. Travel by flight, if you must. Cargo planes or ships are a good option, unless you count pirates.
- Do not go shopping to crowded markets - especially during festival times.
- Order online.
- Avoid 5 star hotels near the sea. (Or be there, considering attacks are not likely to be repeated - depends on how you see it.)
- Eat at 5 star hotels - they x-ray baggages these days.
- Drive everywhere - sure its not eco friendly, but if you dont live whats the point?
- Shop at malls - the security theatre there could dissuade wannabe bombers.
- If you know any politician with high levels of security, tag along...

Grilled Lamb Shoulder Chop with Fresh Mint Jelly
I remember talking about a lamb special that was going on the menu of a Café I was working, and the Chef and a few of us cooks were throwing around ideas for a sauce. I said something like, "what about a classic green mint jelly?" Wow, they all looked at me like we were at a heavy metal music convention and I just suggested throwing on some Bee Gees. Apparently green jelly was something only housewives still served with lamb and we were way too culinarily advanced to consider such a clichéd pairing. How embarrassing! I learned that day that it's not enough that certain foods taste good together, but you also have to consider the fashion of the times.
By the way, if you still use the green jelly right out of the jar – stand proud! There's nothing wrong with you. But, in certain circles (like the entire state of California) you just can't pull out a jar of mint jelly, so today's clip is a fine solution to avoid any embarrassment with the food snobs among us (they're everywhere). You'll see me do a new take on the classic mint jelly, and turn an old cliché into a great, and flavorful, and socially acceptable sauce. Also, I'm grilling lamb shoulder chops, which are a nice, and much cheaper, alternative to the more popular lamb loin chops.
2 lamb shoulder chops (8 oz each)
3 sprigs rosemary
4 cloves garlic
2 tbl pomegranate juice
olive oil
salt and pepper
For the Sauce:
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1 tbl white wine vinegar
1 tbl water
1/2 bunch fresh mint
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Sorry Chef John, but that green jelly is just plain gross. Kind of like that whole pork chop and applesauce thing, too. Am I a food snob? Nah. Anyone who grew up eating "sh*t on a shingle" can only be an old dog who has learned new tastes.
- May 8, 2007 at 3:23 PM
- Chef John said...
lol. I used to do a whole lecture at the culinary academy regarding what is "good" and what is "bad"... the basic conclusion was that since it's all a subjective matter of taste, we all get to decide what's gross and what's delicious and no once can prove us wrong! I used to tell them to think of their least favorite food or recipe or food combination (cocktail meatballs in grape jelly?) and then think that whatever their most hated dish was, somewhere that exact same thing was someone else's favorite thing to eat. So, yes, green mint jelly is gross AND amazingly delicous on lamb all at the same time. Don't even get me started on red mashed potatoes with skins!!

Damn it, I bought Seville. Will make again soon with regular Orange Marmalade. Turned out well otherwise, but the taste of bitter orange wasn't some fantastic culinary mistake that took it to the next level.

Special equipment: Pastry bag and large star tip
In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter with water, salt and zest of 1 lime. Bring to a simmer and then slowly whisk in flour. Remove from heat and keep whisking until mixture forms a ball and breaks away from the sides of the pan. Slowly add eggs in thirds. Spoon batter into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip and refrigerate 15 minutes. Meanwhile, fill a large saucepan 2/3 full with vegetable oil and heat to 350 degrees F. Remove batter from refrigerator and slowly squeeze 3-inch long strips of batter into the oil. Fry in batches, until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes, flipping halfway through. Drain churros on paper towels. In a paper bag, add sugar, cinnamon and remaining zest. Once churros have cooled slightly, in batches, toss churros in bag and shake to coat with cinnamon sugar. Serve warm.

Treating a patient with an infectious disease often turns a physician into a detective. Starting an appropriate treatment therapy as quickly as possible can significantly reduce the patient's mortality risk (which by a recent published study by Lodise et. al. from Albany Medical Center may rise from 19% to 44% over the first 53 hours if untreated) and the chance of spreading that infection to others. In this race against the clock, an empiric therapy regimen—often, administering an intravenous broad-spectrum antibiotic to wipe out a number of potential offenders—can be a prudent approach.
When more laboratory results become available, treatment can be changed to a more specific antibiotic to target the microorganism causing the infection. But for a first-year resident or even an experienced attending physician treating a high volume of newly transferred patients, the option to streamline or de-escalate an antimicrobial may be overlooked, or a more cautious approach chosen for a patient who seems to be improving.
Longer-than-needed durations, medical regimens with redundant coverage, delayed regimens, suboptimal dosing and use of drugs that don't target the causal pathogen are examples of inappropriate antimicrobial therapy, which has been linked to issues such as higher antibiotic resistance rate, longer duration of hospitalization, increased costs, and adverse events ranging from mild skin eruptions to increased mortality. Recent studies have suggested that a significant percentage of antibiotics prescribed in healthcare settings are inappropriate.
Some U.S. medical centers have responded with dedicated antimicrobial "stewardship" efforts. In July 2008, Montefiore Medical Center initiated a multifaceted interdisciplinary program to educate, support, and advise practicing physicians throughout its extensive Bronx network of hospitals, ambulatory care clinics, and nursing homes. Spearheaded by infectious diseases specialist Belinda Ostrowsky, MD, MPH (Infectious Diseases) and infectious diseases specialty pharmacists Yi Guo, Pharm.D. (Moses) and Philip Chung, Pharm.D. (Weiler), the program seeks to foster judicious antimicrobial use toward better patient care and safety; improved clinical outcomes; reduced resistance; and fewer healthcare-acquired infections such as C. difficile colitis, a potentially fatal complication that can develop from the use of commonly prescribed antibiotics.
The emergence and spread of resistance—a self-preserving genetic mutation that renders a pathogen unresponsive to treatment—is particularly pressing given the stagnation of new antimicrobials on the market. Reduced pharmaceutical sponsorship, increased regulatory requirements, and an overall failure to deliver novel antibiotic agents have created low return on investment for antibiotic development, an issue identified by the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) as "a frightening twist in the antibiotic resistance problem that has not received adequate attention from federal policymakers."
A "less is more" approach is fundamental, according to Ostrowsky, who specialized in infections and public health at a Harvard-affiliated teaching hospital and whose medical background includes assignments to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's Epidemic Intelligence Service and the Westchester County Department of Health. "Overusing these important drugs can breed serious problems, so we need to save what we have," she said.
Ostrowsky and her team are currently focusing on Montefiore's inpatient units to formulate a system-wide approach to consistent treatment protocols, a plan based on IDSA guidelines, aggregate data on antimicrobial resistance and microbiology at Montefiore, and exemplary clinical methods practiced by departments throughout the system. Requiring providers to justify use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, optimizing dosages and transitioning administration methods (primarily intravenous to oral), and identifying opportunities to routinely de-escalate and streamline treatment regimens are key components of her stewardship plan.
Despite the serious implications of widespread disease, growing resistance, and no new treatment options, less than half of the country's hospitals currently have formal antimicrobial stewardship programs. Inadequate resources and/or administrative support may be part of the reason. Yet even in the best circumstances, guidelines for establishing antimicrobial stewardship are nascent—IDSA recommendations, for example, were only established in 2007.
"There's no blueprint to show us how to run this kind of program, so our real work right now is to identify the systems that are already in place and design a program that truly meets our patients' needs," Ostrowsky said. Such an endeavor is made more complex by Montefiore's sheer volume (nearly 1500 beds and over 75,000 annual admissions among numerous geographically scattered inner-city facilities); its teeming emergency department, where many antibiotics courses are initiated; and the broad diversity of its providers. However, Ostrowsky's team of seasoned infectious diseases specialty pharmacists in both the Moses and Weiler divisions, as well as liaisons built with the administration, infection control, the pharmacy and therapeutics committee, and microbiology, have made for a strong beginning.
Stewardship programs throughout the country have shown to be cost effective, demonstrating a 22-36% decrease in antimicrobial use and, in some cases, saving as much as $900,000 (antimicrobials account for up to 30% of U.S. hospital pharmacy budgets). By encouraging physicians to be cautiously "frugal" in prescribing antimicrobials, conjoined effort between departments of infectious disease and pharmacy may prove financially beneficial. Ostrowsky's first concern, however, is patient safety. "We want to make sure that we are providing the best possible clinical care," she said. "Saving money for Montefiore would be a side benefit, especially if it comes from well-matched dosing that preserves the effectiveness of the drugs we have available."
