They mean Muslims don't they.

“They mean Muslims don’t they.”

Possibly Sikhs and Hindus, too, of which they have quite a few in the U.K.

This is sad - I wasn’t really brought up in the church, and ended up as an atheist, but traditional beliefs should not be thrown away like this. I attended a few Scout camp outdoor chapels in my day, and was never offended (maybe bored) by it, despite my personal lack of faith. Of course, as a heathen some would argue I should never have been in scouting at all. That would only have deprived them of an active member, and me of a valuable experience.
