Aired August 18, 2010 on Channel 4 – The number of faith schools in Britain is rising. Around 7000 publicly funded schools – one in three – now has a religious affiliation. As the coalition government paves the way for more faith-based education by promoting ‘free schools’, the renowned atheist and evolutionary biologist Professor Richard Dawkins says enough is enough. In this passionately argued film, Dawkins calls on us to reconsider the consequences of faith education, which, he argues, bamboozles parents and indoctrinates and divides children. The film features robust exchanges with former Secretary of State for Education Charles Clarke, Head of the Church of England Education Service Reverend Janina Ainsworth, and the Chair of the Association of Muslim Schools, Dr Mohammed Mukadam. It also features insights from child psychologists and key players in faith education as well as insights from both parents and pupils. Dawkins also draws on his own personal history as a father, arguing that the government must stop funding new faith schools, and urges society to respect a child’s right to freedom of belief. via www.AtheistMedia.com -

My girl-friend and I have decided to start attending church together. Neither of us attends church on regular bases. I was raised as a Baptist. She was raised as a Catholic. I would like to find a church that both of us would feel comfortable attending.
