::And Cons - seeing as you have elbowed your belief in Britain's "godlessness" into the conversation - can I ask that if about 70% of a nation's population either believes in God or in some sort spiritual entity, (your figures mate, not mine) can that nation be considered "godless"?

:::::AlanE, a Eurobarometer poll in 2010 reported that 37% of UK citizens "believed there is a God", 33% believe there is "some sort of spirit or life force" and 25% answered "I don't believe there is any sort of spirit, God or life force".[http://ec.europa.eu/public_opinion/archives/ebs/ebs_341_en.pdf]. See also: [[British atheism]]. [http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Columnists/Godlessness-has-doomed-Britain Godlessness has doomed Britain], Rabbi Boteach - Jerusalem Post. I hope this helps clarify things. :)[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 23:48, 17 February 2016 (EST)
::::::Yes Cons, it has indeed "clarified things". It clarifies the fact that you have to either believe that only 25% of Brits are godless (your figures) or that Rabbi Boteach is right (your wish). Even if you ignore everything but the first figure, it shows that over a third of Brits believe in a God. By your logic, if I had two cats and a dog, I would be "dogless". Catch what I mean Cons?
:::::::You should go to this godless place, Cons. Book yourself into a place like St. Albans , just north of London and go for a walk on a Sunday morning. You can't go a hundred yards, it seems, without tripping over a well-frequented church or chapel - C of E, Baptist, Methodist, and so on. Go to the cathedral there, Cons: not one of the great ones, but certainly one of the longest and it is well deserving of veneration, Cons. I will stop here, mate; not get into Bath on its "greyhound day" when the square in front of the entrances to the cathedral and abbey are wall to wall greyhounds, whippets, lurchers and the like. I do go on don't I? [[User:AlanE|AlanE]] ([[User talk:AlanE|talk]]) 01:53, 19 February 2016 (EST)
AlaE, "37% of UK citizens "believed there is a God". The other figures mix in spirit and also life force. God isn't merely a spirit. The devil is a spirit, but he is not God. And a force is not God as God is a person.
Lastly, due to immigration, which includes among others evangelical Christians, Muslism, other religious people and others, London is becoming desecularized.

:And how's your language - your vernacular - when you change countries? I correspond with various English speakers regularly. Pinhas Markman did not come across as a Pom. I showed a Gmail of something he wrote to me after his - um - fall to my English wife and she said: : "he's not English. He May be in England now but he did not learn to speak in England. Or write. He sounds somewhere where they learn American English." [[User:AlanE|AlanE]] ([[User talk:AlanE|talk]]) 23:18, 17 February 2016 (EST)
::Cons, I certainly don't believe everything I read from you. In fact, I don't think I believe any of it. From my email exchanges with Pinhas Markman, which are all in archives that I can't be bothered to look up, he lived in Israel and was in fact a Messianic Jew.
::Also, any time I want to read about your views on evangelical Christianity teaching the depravity of man, or anything else, for that matter, in a discussion of Pinhas Markman, or any other utterly unrelated topic, I will always know that I can count on you.
