Banks get spanked by Cambridge uni...

It is a supreme pleasure for many, once in a while, to assist (reading in this case) how a great power (UK banking trading association) is stiffly put back in its place after the umpteenth attempt of bullying. Well done prof. Anderson!

This Christmas, for perhaps the first time ever, Britain is a majority non-religious nation

The last BSA survey has confirmed a well set trend for Britain: the nation is becoming a non-religious society. Moreover, for the first time ever, the majority of the nation is admittedly non-religious. Therefore and proudly, "The Britain of 50 years ago, in which religion was a far larger part of the social fabric and the national way of life, is a country we have lost." Let's just go the future with this thought then, and keep fighting for the only real values we do have as humans: reason and freedom. Merry Christmas.
