Eric Pickles: Britain still a Christian nation – get over it

RE: Eric Pickles: Britain still a Christian nation – get over it
He should name his children "Dill" and "Sweet."

Oh, the "Christian nation" crap. Laughable. I like the part where he pushed for legislation so they could pray at public meetings without worrying about legal challenges. Because as we all know, Christians already lack for opportunities to pray to god.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
