The son of one of the couples my mum knows from the Salvation Army is standing for the Scottish Family Party. We got a flyer for them this morning and they want to ban sex education in schools! They were definitely barking up the wrong tree trying to canvas me via my mum on Sunday 😂

1. That's terrifying. And unwelcome.

2. Something to revisit. Not being a citizen of any of the British countries, though...

3. Not sure that extrapolation to Canada is valid yet. You might want to look at CBC News, the Tyee, etc..

Having Christianity enforced on me by hypocrites sure turned me against Religion. In a world full of hypocrites forcing their religious dogma on people this will totally make things better...

I went to a convent school as a 4-6 year old. (My mother is a Catholic). I really object now to the indoctrination of my tiny, uncomprehending self. It took a long time to wear off and I have retained a lasting wariness of nuns.

My sympathies to younger you.
