I am not sure where 'here' is, however that is one of the ironies of it all is the great efforts being made to get the kids into the local C of E school as its the 'best' and then making sure you tell the kids its all bollocks when they come home because that isn't going to confuse them!
If you don't want your kids to grow up religious don't send them to a religious school, or let them make their own minds up?
I just don't get it!
In terms of what can drive people to make death threats, in this era of internet keyboard warriors - just about anything!
It's one of the quirks of the education system that we have faith schools in the UK....I'd abolish them.
Originally, the C of E would help fund the developing compulsory education system and would have a certain amount of input, depending whether Contolled or Aided.
Of course, this led to the Catholics having their own schools...something which has never been a major problem in England, but not great in NI.
The Jews then claimed the same rights....but you don't get many Jewish schools outside London and they keep their heads down.
Now the Muslims have joined in, and you can see with things like the Birmingham Trojan horse schools, it's not desirable state of affairs.
