Just damn!
How glad I am that I live in the UK where we don't have to put up with this sort of thing.
The USA is going to hell in a handbasket, thanks to all the lawyers and the ACLU.
In 100 years and they'll all be living in a Marxist state.
Shame really.
GOD BLESS THE UK
GOD BLESS THE QUEEN

I like all the UK folks and all, but it seems they're coming out of the woodworks on this thread. Isn't the UK the place where Irish and Northern Irish (i.e., UK) people used to routinely beat, terrorize, blow up, firebomb, and shoot each other? And has a state religion?
The only reason that religion is free in the UK is because I'm sorry to say, you guys capitulated years ago. To quote the brilliant comedian Eddie Izzard, "Anglicanism is much more of a hobby these days, really." Let's face it, you guys have gay priests and Druid bishops. There's only freedom of religion there because no one cares and none of the religions is worth fighting for anymore.
When UK folks start protesting and becoming activists like American Christians are, and start teaching a more orthodox faith, you'll see the hammer get dropped there too.

The USA is going to hell in a handbasket, thanks to all the lawyers and the ACLU. I for one will certainly not dispute your statement. The legalistic termites are chewing their way through this country's foundations.
BTW, weren't you the FReeper formerly known as the "British Bulldog?" What happened, were you invaded by Normans or something? :)

"In 100 years and they'll all be living in a Marxist state." Leave us not gloat (nor commiserate) too quickly, fellow countrypersons.
20 years from now WE will be living in an Islamic state.

The traditions of individual freedoms and personal liberty have really been primarily a tradition of English speaking countries. But we seem ready to abandon that tradition in our rush to embrace the French tradition of socialism and rationalism.
