The UK Right-Wing parties are going hard today on how the UK is a Christian country. The thing is we're actually an A-Religious country. 30% say they have no religion when asked. 30% were brought up in a faith but haven't though about it since they were 10. 20% know what to do in a place of worship, but only ever go for weddings and funerals. Which leaves 10% who are just getting old.

It's not that we're Atheist. We're A-Religious. We're simply not interested and don't care.

@jbond I've somehow been given to understand that UK folks are kind of lightly christianized tree-worshipping druids or something. With really fine old church architecture.

Edit to add: which actually sounds quite appealing to me. And choral music can be nice!

@stitchbystitchmaui @jbond not so much tree worshipping druids, but the Order of Bards, Ovates & Druids is a thing https://druidry.org/
