British Hypocrisy Association?

David Robertson

The next Free Church of Scotland Moderator, David Robertson, has accused the British Humanist Association (BHA) of ‘sheer hypocrisy’ after it emerged that they would be distributing books promoting atheism to every secondary school in Scotland after successfully securing a ban on a Christian book being distributed to primary schools.

The distribution of The Young Atheists Handbook: Lessons for Living a Good Life with- out God comes just three months after the Humanist Society of Scotland (HSS) secured a ban on Scripture Union’s It’s your move that seeks to help pupils make the transition from primary school to secondary school.

Fundamentalist atheists

The book however will no longer be given to pupils following the HSS complaint that the literature promoted prayer which ‘is obviously an attempt to evangelise young children at a vulnerable phase in their lives’.
