Fair enough. I agree with you.. but I feel this is a dangerous precident for us to set. (the arms company thing) what on earth do they want with it

[Darwinsgift]

@MarioSavioTZM - Maybe they want to know where all the Muslims live, but if I was a radical Muslim I would claim another religion on the census. Seriously though, census information is very commercial in value if it gets out.

Just how exactly is the census going to be run? If it's door to door, my parents who are really REALLY fundie would try to tick "yes" or sthing, you don't want to see their reaction if they find I'm an atheist, I saw what happened the last time they harassed my brother for months driving him almost suicidal. And if you're wondering- no not Muslim LOL XD *hushed tone* - ex-Sikh.

@TurboDally - update! Individual members of a household can request a separate form to fill in if requested. You would have to phone in and explain the situation. I'm not convinced that this would create harmony in a household however.

I think the questionnaire is worded wrong it should say:

''What religion, religious denomination do you belong to?''

None- Because I'm not a cunt.

Church of Scotland- Bible fryer

Roman Catholic- Paedophile

Muslim- Paedophile, Suicide Bomber, Misogynist, Genital Mutilator, Jew Hater

Jewish- Arab Hater, Military Oppressor, Peace Destroyer, Genital Mutilator

Pagan- Stoned, High, Tripping, Loved Up

Mormon- Snake Oil Purchaser

Scientologist- Snake Oil (with Gucci on the bottle) Purchaser.

@Zed1967 - nice! but a little obvious :)

'No Religion' Census Campaign Is Unnecessary, Says U.K. Think Tank (Theos)

in the Christian Post. In other words "We have been in power 2000 years and killed a lot of you, but it's not ok to object, even now."

lets ignore the fact Lockheed Martin make land mines and weapons of mass destruction and lets focus on religion.

If any religion supports the creation of landmines and nukes then fill the census in cause you will be supporting Lockheed Martin in their global tyranny paid for with our tax.

Dude you are a fool, playing the religion card is so yesturday you can keep trying though, we live in a new age and your not welcome!.

NWO = fail

We see your shit for what it is now go away!.

[WellPlacedSkidMark]

Bin it!

[TurboDally]

@Darwinsgift I discovered I could fill the online Census individually, but had to ask for individual Census forms (need seperate access codes). My parents saw the extra Census forms coming in for three of their sons but didn't suspect much (hopefully). Already submitted the form online, I think that even if my parents submit anything on our behalf, the online results will remain- hopefully :P I wonder how many households are like mine :S

what does lockheed not win a contract for? jeeze.

[tonstar1111]

The USA can spy on the uk and the uk can spy on the USA legally that's why L.M got the contract

[ZeitgeistChichester]

is there any way we can find out what exaclty they'd likely use it for? It's not that I don't think they could already trace the colour of my underwear, but it's the principle. This is a government that has lied, cheated, commited war crimes and attacked the most vunerable in society. They are violent thugs and do not represent me. They cannot treat me like I am their property when it is they who have deprived me of the resources I need to live and contribute to society in a meaningful way.

[O2BSoLucky]

Personally I hate the "No Religion" option. Makes it sound like you haven't thought about it, or are a deist without an organised religious group.

Atheist is what it says.

[Bear5177]

Interesting. During my time stationed in the UK I didn't really get an idea of how religious the good people of UK were. I didn't realize that there was such a high population of atheists in the UK. Is this something that's developed over a long period of time or has there been a large change in religious beliefs fairly recently?
