Eilonnwy, you have just reminded me of a long forgotten thing. When I was in my teens I went through a period when I didn't believe in God and I remember in assembly the whole school had to say the 'Lord's Prayer'. I remember defiantly looking ahead with my eyes open (not the head bowed, eyes shut as was 'commanded'). I would will a teacher to challenge me, but unfortunately they never did. I think we are mostly in agreement here. Smile
