Maybe some religious info in schools won't hurt

Also in The Times, Christian charity is sending a film about the Christmas story to every primary school in Britain. Steve Legg, head of the The Breakout Trust, said: “There are over 12 million children in the UK and only 756,000 of them go to church regularly.

That may be the problem. It's hard not to sympathize, though: The effort was prompted by hearing that a young boy had asked his primary school teacher why Mary and Joseph had named their baby after a swear word.
