So that makes... Catholicism better exactly how? I thought it would be the opposite.

I'd have thought you'd be embarrassed, Heresson. I didn't realise you were a fan of his.

CH, well it's not legally homosexuality with under aged boys now is it? GET with the definition!

What will Blair haters say when he becomes the President of the EU once this post gets established? He is apparently the No.1 candidate for it.

So in England the church is not separated from the state. The Queen is the head of the church. And poor Blair had no chance to convert before quitting the office.

That's so undemocratic if you think about it!

That would put him at the helm of an organization I hate just as much as him, so it fits, IMO.

"Good ... The Force is strong with you. A powerful Sith you will become. Henceforth, you will be known as Darth...Blair."

I wish him well.

This is a clear example of reality imitating Wikipedia.

That's so undemocratic if you think about it! Except it is bullshit. There is no requirement for the PM to be Church of England.

Blair was discouraged from converting during his reign by his beloved spin-doctor Alaistair Campbell.

Besides, it's a fact that the church is not separated from the state in England. And this can hardly be viewed as a democratic practice.

[joeyCanada]

It's not that, it's just that nobody cares.

No, I think it was Winston's way of a putting in a cheap jab at the Soviet Union, where it didn't matter what the majority wanted.

[padlabtard]

Well, democratic in this day and age usually refers to liberal democratic values, where things such as free speech are upheld, even if the majority wants to squash certain kinds of speech (and yes, I realize free speech jurisprudence is very different on both sides of the 'pond').

It is rather ironic that despite the constitutional arrangements Britain is comparatively secular in practice, and yet in the United States with clearly defined separation of powers politicians can't go three sentences without having to say "God bless America".
