I Heard this on an Israeli radio chat programme. The host read out a headline from one of today's papers and asked people to comment. The headline I heard told that Israel's Ultra-Orthodox community was going to organize its own "Redemption Parade" as an answer to the gay Pride Parade.
The off-the-cuff comment: Well, both parades will be very much alike: the men will go with the men and the women will go with the women. The only difference will be that the gay parade will be colourful whereas the Ultra-Orthodox parade will be black and white.

The paradox has often been noted that the United States, founded in secularism, is now the most religiose country in Christendom, while England, with an established church headed by its constitutional monarch, is among the least. (Richard Dawkins, 2006)
