It’s obviously a subject that people on both sides are passionate about. I feel that my childhood was ruined by being in a household that was extremely strict. So much so that I was told that if attended the Leeds game on a Sunday (at the age of 20 and by my extremely hypocritical Father) that I’d be kicked out of the house.
My dislike for religion stems from that and other similar experiences, but I can empathise (although through gritted teeth) with your arguments Lither, and apart from your stance on immigration and the like, can respect where you are coming from.
It’s not something that’s ever going to be resolved either way, certainly not in my lifetime anyway.
It’s a shame this thread has deteriorated as it has, but as I said, I take the blame for that too.
