ARTICLE SNIPPET from the link in post no. 1:

"Last year the Catholic Education Service said Catholic schools should provide multi-faith prayer rooms for Muslim, Jewish, Hindu and Sikh students.

It also suggested bathrooms should be adapted to accommodate ritual cleansing.

If so few students in the schools are actually Catholic and the Catholic Education Service is recommending all of these various accommodations for students of other faiths, then they might as well go all the way and stop calling the school "Catholic"! I am willing to bet that they no longer teach Catholic religion classes in these schools lest those who are non-Catholic be offended.

Perhaps the Catholic parents who are mentioned in the article as not supporting the schools are not doing so because they feel they have been overrun in every way. It's truly horrible how the British are letting their traditions and culture be destroyed with seemingly no signs of protest from any sector. I never would have imagined something like this happening. Since obviously nothing is sacrosanct, it only remains to be seen what will be next.
