Religious schools

Mr Eugenides isn’t impressed with a new Hindu state-funded school in Britain:

If you want to teach your kids that chanting “Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare” is going to bring about “a higher state of consciousness”, then you are entirely welcome to; Hindus tend to be fine upstanding citizens, and I am sure that Hare Krishnas are even more so. But please put your hand in your own fucking pocket, not mine.

The same goes for other religions, of course.
