The news a couple of days ago that Tony Blair has joined the Roman Catholic church should have come as a surprise to no-one. It’s nice to see a couple of commenters to BBC News’s story saying very much what I was thinking:
Quite frankly, who cares? Not talking about his faith previously was probably one of the few good decisions he took as prime minister. Running the country is not about what version of god you believe in, in fact religion should have no part at all in the day-to-day running of the country.
Alex Bailey, CorbyI would never have voted for him had I knew he was religious. The thought that people in power have gone to war based upon the voices in their heads fills me with horror. To not believe in fairytales is the norm, anything other than that is delusional. We need more normal atheist people to speak up for common sense.
