This row over the schools in Birmingham shows why religion should have no place whatsoever in schools
@adambanksdotcom It's like people who only go to church for the six weeks before their wedding. Why bother? Does God reward part-timers?

@bazzacollins Well not in the marriage case, but with schools, sometimes the best option happens to have a religious affiliation. -
@adambanksdotcom Yes, sorry that tweet sounded hopelessly naive. I meant that I could never see myself faking religion to get the kids...

@bazzacollins@adambanksdotcom Going to Church for weeks before wedding is often a requirement of the vicar, not desire of the couple. -
@popey@adambanksdotcom Yep, I know. What I meant was why bother getting married in church in first place, if you're not religious. -
@bazzacollins@adambanksdotcom In my case it was "keep wifey happy" :)

@bazzacollins@adambanksdotcom Local churches demand a year of very regular attendance for weddings/baptisms. -
@CraigGrannell@bazzacollins I was brought up going to church and by any standards that’s doing it wrong.

@bazzacollins@adambanksdotcom No, but their parents don't disown them for not having a church wedding...Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
