Comment on British officer: "You're not allowed to sing church songs outside of church grounds."

The UK is about 20 years ahead in the decline of religion. My friend Iain has had two churches close their doors in the last 15 years. He’s in his mid-fifties and has mentioned him and his wife are the youngest couple left attending their current church. They have to drive 30 minutes one-way to get to there now. Basically the indoctrination loop broke in the UK a very long time ago, and without teaching kids to believe in invisible nonsense from a very young age… boom, no more religion.
UK isn’t like the USA - you can’t annoy people with this nonsense in public. Why they’d bother writing an article about it, unsure.
