GO 16.5 %!!!

Any ways, it's because of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We have freedom of religion and freedom from religion. The founding fathers PWNT religion.

And?

I'm Protestant, been baptized and don't believe a word of the bible.

Then you probably wouldn't label yourself a Protestant when StatsCan comes around again in 2011 (religion is done every decade), will you?

You are also supposed to respect other people's religions. ;)

Point? By excluding prayer from public school doesn't mean the religious kids can't pray. It just means that the ones who don't aren't forced to.

From the remarks you make you are not very respectful. :)

Oh' and by the way it doesnt indicate in any way that they "are Believers in the Bible" merely on how they identify themselves by religion. Namny Catholics believe in abortion, certainly many protestants believe in gay marriage. From my own experiences of having go through the census process you have the option to identify yourself as one of the above religions. But it doesnt indicate in anyway if these people are regular church goers and many people simply identify themselves by family upbringing


The header on the beggning of this post is mis-leading

[?] Respectful is letting them do it. But ridiculing them is totally fair game. For all religions. ;)
