Freedom for young minds

I'm supporting a campaign by Humanists UK to get rid of 'collective acts of worship' in schools. Most opinion polls now show that non-religious people are in the majority in the UK, so the question is why do we still have this crude ceremony in our schools? If it's meant to indoctrinate, then it clearly hasn't worked. What, I wonder might the effect on a child's mind be if she were told that God had instructed her father to kill her? Or do school assemblies only include the happy clappy Bible stories? Please sign the petition.
