    I missed this thread, but I agree with Greenbeanz OP.

    I see no reason for the state to have any connection with religion at all and don't even believe in the state funding faith schools as I believe that all they do is enhance division in what is seemingly an increasingly fractured society. Study the subjects and be made aware of religions, but to teach a syllabus around adhering to a set faith? I find that untenable.

    Since when have atheists ever been militant anyway? It was Blair and his faith that lurched Britain towards what was a war in Iraq totally at odds with the interests of the general public and it is no secret how faith dominates the political sphere in the US. Santorum last week was ranting on about how God made America a great country etc etc. Tell that to the Natives who were wiped out to genocidal proportions.

    Also the idea of militancy even on the micro level is absurd. How many atheists knock on your door encouraging you not to believe in God? I get Christians at least twice a week. That is localised militancy.

    Religion is the problem. Atheists are relatively open minded and benign types.

    I am sure they are one of the same person, split personality disorder.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
