Yes, they do. But there is no requirement for the State to provide segregating schools at taxpayers' expense that we know cause division and problems in society.

There are three fundamental questions for anyone advocating Brexit:

1. What, precisely, are the significant and tangible benefits of leaving the EU?
2. What damage to the UK and its citizens is an acceptable price to pay for those benefits?
3. Which ruling of the ECJ is most persuasive of the need to leave its jurisdiction?

I don't have the answer for that, but what I know is humanists hasn't got a working doctrine yet so I don't think humanists has the answer for that either.

The answer from the best evidence is that children should not be in schools that segregate them from others by the religion of their parents.

I don't know which doctrine will work best so I can't back any of them other than mine and myself.
