“The reintroduction of daily Christian assemblies”
I have no problem with religion: I’m an atheist who believes everyone has a right to peacefully follow any belief they choose.
“Daily Christian assemblies”, what does this mean, how far will this policy go? Is it back to how it used to be when I was at school (20+ years ago)?
I came from a family though not overly religious, did believe in a Christian God. I went to normal schools where I was forced to sit through Christian assemblies despite at an early age (before my teens) realising I did not believe in a God. I was told I’d have to be a Mormon to not participate in the Christian assemblies!
It was wrong then to force children to be part of religious Christian assembly in school and it is still wrong now.
We do not all believe in the same thing, I understand over half our population are no longer religious and those that are have a mixture of religious beliefs, why should one religious faith (Christianity) be forced on all children?
The BNP complain that Muslims will take over Britain and force the Qur’an on us, so in response the BNP want Christians to take over and force Christianity on us!!! How is that different/better for those who have no religious belief or believe in a different religion?
I have no problem with a parent deciding their child should be Christian/Muslim (whatever), but I have a BIG problem with the government forcing a particular religion on it’s people!
Religion and politics should not mix.
Do NOT vote BNP if you agree with freedom to follow your own religious beliefs.
BTW one of my sites: https://king-james-bible.classic-literature.co.uk/ (only 15 in Google for the search “King James Bible”, used to do much better). And yes I’ve read some of the Bible, not all of it, but enough to make informed decisions.
