Absolute disgrace
I MUST emphasise that this has nothing whatsoever to do with my political beliefs and it was beliefs that are exclusively my own that were comprehensively sickened by the article in recent papers informing us that every secondary school in Cornwall, England and Wales is to receive a book on lessons for living a good life without God, which was written by a Muslim boy brought up in South East London.
Well, this is a letter from a boy brought up in West London who went to school assembly every morning and finished with the Lord's Prayer; this boy went to Sunday school and he joined the Salvation Army cubs and marched proudly around the streets on the first Sunday in every month.
My girlfriend and I regularly attended a Pentecostal church, my mother, brought up in a convent, was a Catholic and my father was an atheist, all of us made up our own minds what we believed in and we certainly did not need any non- religious perspective to guide us. What on earth is happening out there?
It is an absolute disgrace that this county, England and Wales are allowing this to happen.
