God save me from religious nutters

Don't set the ideas ball in motion, they might get the idea esp the extremists to bomb the churches further lowering the number of active Christians.
Not that I like Christians or Muslims....as a whole community.

Your faith was strong but you needed proof, you saw her bathing on the roof, her beauty in the moonlight overthrew you
She tied you to a kitchen chair, she broke your throne, she cut your hair, and from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Maybe I have been here before, I know this room; I have walked this floor, I used to live alone before I knew you
I've seen your flag on the marble arch, love is not a victory march, it's a cold and its a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

There was a time you let me know whats really going on below, but now you never show it to me, do you? (and)
Remember when I moved in you; the holy dark was moving too, and every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu----jah

Maybe there's a God above, and all I ever learned from love was how to shoot at someone who outdrew you
And its not a cry you can hear at night, its not somebody who's seen the light, its a cold and its a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu--jah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelu---u---jah

I agree.

A few months ago some newspapers reported that the number of Roman Catholics attending Church in England was larger - or about to become larger - than the number of Church of England people attending Church.

But, of course, even if that is true - it does not change the fact that there are almost 30 million people (out of England's 51 million people) baptised into the Anglican denomination in England who still go to Church (though less frequently in some cases than those who attend Mass every week).

By 2035, there will be about 1.96million active Muslims in Britain

By 2035? I'm sure that should read 2005! There must be that number in London now!

But UKIP does not care. So long as they pretend to be Brittish first and Muslim second then UKIP does not care about anything else.

Yeah but not down 'ere in the West Country. The government claim that folks in the countryside aren't very nice towards immigrants, don't know where they get that idea. :-)

People are free to criticise religion, especially when they think that it is false and that it does more harm than good.
