I saw this headline on the Yahoo news page: "Druidry recognized as official religion in Britain."

I thought to myself, finally those people in the UK have realized that Christianity was the wrong way to go. But of course the headline was misleading and this is the story:

A shame really, the Druids I've read about seemed to be a simple folk, closer to the Earth than other religions. I like the idea of sharing simple ideas, it allows room for personal thought.

I don't see the mass of negativity in the Christian UK that I do here in the US. Maybe it's because you folks across the pond have been living with it longer than us, you also happen to be more civilized. I can only agree with Timmy's assessment that the Christians here seem to have more in common with the Taliban every day.
