Science is Broken

[DanaC]

He is fighting an uphill battle in which religion gets a free pass. Bear in mind he comes from a country in which all state schools must, by law, be 'run along broadly Christian principles' and in which religious studies are an obligatory part of the syllabus. At the same time, fewer and fewer children are electing to take sciences in their post-14 options. Meanwhile, along with the spread of evangelical Christianity (it is the only branch of Christianity which is growing in the UK) our government has handed the direct running of many of our secondary schools to 'external sponsors' the largest of which is the Church of England.
