I was pleasantly surprised by this set of stats reported here: Theos think tank - News -> 1 in 3 Britons believe in virgin birth the salient point being:
"In the poll of over a thousand adults, undertaken for Theos by ComRes, 34% of people agreed that the statement 'Jesus was born to a virgin called Mary' was historically accurate. Only 32% considered it fictional. Women are more likely to believe in the virgin birth (39%) than men (29%)."
Full report here.
Nous like scouse or French -oui? We wee whee all the way ... to mind us a bunch of thunks. Too much information? How could that be?
