If these public facilities had installed holy water dispensers so a catholic could dip his finger in and do the sign of the cross they would be filing lawsuits faster than you can say "In the name of the father......."

I agree, but foot baths? that lightweight!
Almost all universitys (and I suspect airports) in England have at least one christian chapel. It is about time they got rid of these.

I never see chapels at airports in the US. I do a lot of flying and the airports I go to don't have them.

The University I went to did not have a chapel either. Now some do have chapels or churches but often those are private college. As a private institution they have that right to do that. I also don't ever hear of suicide bombers and hijackers being trained an preached violence from christian chapels either.

Neither do I hear about Muslims being trained in violence at a foot bath! :rotfl: but both should still go.

With no Avon Lady around it looks like Skybird will have to do his bit and confuse you all.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I am pretty sure that you guys in England don't have constitutional guarantee or anything regarding seperation of church and state. Matter of fact, isn't the Anglican Church the official church of England?

The same applies to your freedom of speech and press.
