Britain is a majority non-religious nation
Re: Britain is a majority non-religious nation
What is the difference between nationalism and religion? Both rely on a higher power deemed infallible.

Nationalism doesn't necessarily think the "higher power" is infallible. That's just a discrediting move by people who automatically assume its bad without thinking about it.Trolldor wrote:What is the difference between nationalism and religion? Both rely on a higher power deemed infallible.

Re: Britain is a majority non-religious nation
I've thought about it enough.
I don't see the value in singing a national anthem, and I don't see the benefit in having pride in your nation - particularly when the 'values' you take pride in are not your country's and most definitely not retained.
