Quote:"He said that for Christians a vision of reconciled love between people "is there only because God raised Jesus" and that the answer was not in scientific proof, but by the way believers lived with and in their faith."

So the guy is just a fucking lunatic, then.

I just can't get past his eyebrows.

You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.

My daughter was also forced to take it and she's 16.

Also, Rowan Williams has ridiculous eyebrows.

My eldest son is taking it as a compulsary subject and my middle son was told two weeks ago that it is one of the subjects he has to do next year.

It depends where the school is different counties and schools have different policies on it. When I was in school I took RS GCSE and still had to do the extra lessons of RE because the policy was all students have to do RE.. Even the ones doing RS...

Also sometimes they put it under another name or mix it with a subject in like 'Personal learning' 'Citizenship' or whatever other misleading name they give it.
