vaguely wandering back on topic for a moment, I was in cubs, scouts and then ventures (why did they choose a friday night for ventures, that’s why I left) and the subject of religion never once reared it’s ugly head. I had to stand and look smart for St Georges day parade, but not one element of religion was discussed in all the time I was attending. Which was good as it may have interupted my attempts at accidental self immolation.
I’d assume this was due to the personal beliefs of the leaders as it doesn’t seem to be the case for everyone. Obviously I was lucky, though there was a local leader (not mine) who got done for being a perv.
