Should the UK still have a state religion.

With 2012 well and underway, and many interesting news stories and musical interests happening, though it was only correct to blog again.

In the News, the country is looking forward to seeing the Chancellors budget next Wednesday. Though for me i think the main story in the news is only being hinted at with, lots of different arguments over gay marriage in the UK, i think the real question that is being asked under all this is if the UK should continue to have a state religion. 

After many modern democracies across the world have removed state religion, is Britain next to follow suit?  France recently have banned signs of faiths in public. Though are we about to witness the same here in the UK, and if so is it right to lose certain traditions.

In my opinion, the country was built on a set of morals that have stood the country in good stead for hundreds of years, is it right that we can think we have the right answer to improve something that works, which i feel partly makes the UK stand out on the world stage.

Tradition is something this country has and makes us stand out against the world, our culture is something we should be proud, i know this view is slightly pragmatic in not wanting a change, though i believe in this case it should remain, other religions work in the country as well and respect is built between them. 

Losing this part of tradition could lead to other aspects of the UK and its constitution being watered down and reformed, and are we as a country ready to reform our way of life for ever without knowing the full consequences. 

Thank you and i shall write soon.
