"Richard Bacon has criticised Stephen for expressing his religious beliefs to his housemates.  The former Blue Peter presenter, who was rumoured to be taking part in the final series of the reality show, made his comments while writing as a guest columnist for The Sun.  &amp;quot;Let no-one say the legacy of Celebrity Big Brother is dumbing down TV, or encouraging an obsession with celebrity,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;After watching Stephen Baldwin evangelising on this latest series,&amp;quot; the BBC Radio 5 Live DJ continued, &amp;quot;it has left us with a brand new legacy - a new generation of devout atheists.&amp;quot; The 34-year-old broadcaster, who was famously sacked from Blue Peter in 1998 after being revealed as a cocaine user, also commented on the image Stephen gives of himself.  &amp;quot;If there is a God, he must be watching Stephen Baldwin in the house (he&amp;#039;s omnipotent, after all) and thinking, &amp;#039;I&amp;#039;ve got to get myself some better spokespeople&amp;#039;.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
