4. Of course, you're talking about a nation where
religious instruction is still part of the educational curriculum and there is an officially sanctioned religion. Despite all that, Brits are refreshingly secular for the most part - perhaps having religion crammed down their throats in school and knowing that there *is* a state sanctioned sect makes the entire argument for in-your-face faith less relevant . . .

(which is not to say that they don't have their fair share of loons)
