Hey Vicar – leave our kids alone.
(Apologies to Pink Floyd)
Aside
A vicar has banned the Christmas Carol ‘Oh little town of Bethlehem’ because it does not represent the modern- day reality of the troubled city.
Another vicar has rewritten ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’ so it reflects modern Britain so instead of ‘Two turtle doves, and a partridge in pear tree.’ He has written:
‘Two addicts shaking and a poor homeless refugee.
A school choir was forced to pull out of a winter festival because its carols were ‘too religious’ for the event.
Teachers are not discussing Father Christmas in the class-room because of fears they could offend pupils from other faiths, according to a report.
I don’t remember any lasting damage to me, reciting the creed, even though I was a Unitarian in a Church of England school; and the Catholics were excused prayers.
Who are these people who insist on changing the fabric of British life to the detriment of our children?
