    If you want a faith school pay for it - don't expect the taxpayer to pick up the bill. If you are not willing to do that and want your child to learn about a faith take them to church and to sunday school or the synagogue, temple or whatever. End of discussion.

    Coming from you, I'm not sure if that fills me with confidence.

    My mate Monaco is correct.

    I was sitting on a crowded bus and this elderly black lady with a walking stick got on.

    I promptly got up to offer her my seat and she said "Whoaaaaa bitch, you think coz Iz iz blacks that I am a lazy mo you white trash"

    Well I was thoroughly embarassed and made my excuses and vacated the bus hastily.

    I was only trying to be helpful for goodness sake.

    Anyone thinks that catholic schools cause sectarianism is a spastic.

    There are Catholic schools all over the world yet we see the vast majority of sectarianism in the places were we have a higher number of Scots type Protestants.

    The major causes have been identified hence we are seeing more punitive laws and restrictions placed on the Orange Order and their like, here and in Scotland.

    What's your point? Are you suggesting that there is no ant-semitism or anti-Islam in England?

    I've been to quite a few schools in my travels, quite a few taig ones as well.

    Never had a problem with most of them. Although 2 of them considered it insulting and disrespectful when I refused to take part in mass or prayers, even then I'd attribute that to the teachers and not the school.

    Schools don't make people bigots but some faith schools have bad practice.

    I think they should keep it the way it is, as bigotry isn't only cool, but a lot of fun too.

    My point is how can Dev say Scotland doesn't have any problems with Jewish or Islamic schools when we only have a grand total of ****ing 3? <doh>

    That is true but how funny would the beel be if the government did the right thing and insisted on having no non fee paying faith schools at all?

    You are not made to take part in prayers or mass. What you are asked to do is show respect for those who do.

    So there next to no Jewish/Muslim schools in Scotland, going by your logic there must be next to no prejudice against those minorities?

    Catholics pay taxes too, if people didn't want to send their kids to a Catholic School then they would not exist.

    It's a strange one, Billy's a raging bigot because Declan goes to a catholic school, nothing to do with Billy's old man who is a sash wearing anti catholic arsehole.
