No confusion
Once more, the Reverend accuses me of trying to remove Christianity from the education system. Yet again, I have to point out this is not the case as I want to see pupils taught about religious beliefs in state schools. But the sad reality is they are force-fed one set of beliefs as fact, in both the denominational and misnamed non-denominational sectors, as well as discriminated against in admissions either because their parents do not have a faith or the right sort of faith.
This is the reality of Christianity in the education system of which Rev Robertson heartily approves – segregation, discrimination and indoctrination. To simply state disagreement with him on the subject is to render one a “militant atheist” or “fundamentalist secularist”.
