How is the American Revolution taught in the UK?

I love the UK, but it hasn't been exactly a leader on a world scale since it gave up on kings with power. That said, perhaps that was the best thing that could happen, since you all have moved on in getting rid of poxes like religion while the U.S. still pretends not to be imperialistic.

The monarchy will fuck off at some point, we've executed them before, we'll do it again. Wink

Yeah, over here religion isn't a problem. It's a dying tradition that's become weaker and weaker as time goes on. If priests threaten anyone with hell here, they may end up arrested for being a pest or end up waking up in hospital.
I never actually knew about the whole 4th of July thing until I started talking to yanks online. It's never ever mentioned here. I can't help but forget about it even after I'm told.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
