I'm not very good at this, but will give it a go...
I wouldn't see myself as religious person, even though I was brought up CofE from a very young age, hence why I probably don't dismiss religion, for me it's about respect for the many different religions and finding where I fit in within them, I still don't know the answer at my age!
Maybe there is a God, whatever that maybe, but I've got about as much chance of proving that, as I have as what's at the end of the observable universe, something that I am interested in. But i'd hate to think, life didn't have a purpose.
Something I see that religion does do from a postive aspect, it creates a structure to people's lives, that moral compass. People complain about royalty, people complain about politicians, people complain about religion, people will complain about everything, but they are all building blocks of every day life, take them away and you have bedlam.
If people want to mourn the Queen let them, for those that don't, have some respect and just shut the fook up complaining, for once in your life.
Ooops nearly forgot...
AMEN
