Shamanism is on the Rise in the United Kingdom

Census data has revealed an unlikely religion is on the rise in England and Wales: shamanism.

Census results published by the Office for National Statistics show that less than half of people in the two British nations, England and Wales, identify themselves as Christian. The announcement has also reportedly renewed calls to end the Church of England's role in parliament and schools.

Notably, Athe people were asked what their religion was rather than about their religious practices or beliefs, a question which is optional since 2001. The number of people who identified as Christians were down from 59.3 per cent in 2011 to 46.6 per cent in 2021. On the other hand, people who said they do not have a religion grew from 25 per cent a decade ago to 37 per cent, last year.

Shamanism is expanding faster than any other religion, with the number of people saying they practice it rising from 650 in 2011 to 8,000 in 2021 in England and Wales. The result might prove controversial, as the Shamanism UK website asserts "it is not a religion, more an authentic expression of mankind’s spirituality."

Pagans and wiccans are also becoming more established. Pagans, who number 74,000 people (up from 57,000 in 2011) and who gather most in Ceredigion, Cornwall and Somerset, and wiccans, who number 13,000. Wicca is sometimes described as a witchcraft tradition whose roots lie in pre-Christian religious traditions, folklore, folk witchcraft and ritual magic.

There was a small rise in numbers of Buddhists. Despite the growth in mindfulness meditation practice over the last decade, the number of people following Buddhism, from which the practice derives, saw just a modest increase of 0.1 percentage points, from 249,000 to 273,000 people identifying as such in England and Wales. The highest concentration of Buddhists was again found in Rushmoor in Hampshire -- home to the Aldershot Buddhist Community Centre -- where the census counted 4,732, up from 3,092 a decade ago.

Uploaded 16 May 2019 His Royal Highness the Duke of Gloucester, the first cousin of Her Majesty the Queen, carried out an historic Royal inspection of Bedford's Combined Cadet Force at Bedford School today (15 May) Pupils and staff from: Bedford School, Bedford Girls’ School, Bedford Modern School, St Andrew’s School, Rushmoor School and The Bedford Free School were there to take part in the ceremony, the first of its kind for over 100 years. The last royal inspection was of both Bedford School and Bedford Modern School contingents in 1918 by the Duke’s grandfather, King George V. Falling just after the end of the First World War, the inspection in 1918 poignantly commemorated the 470 Old Bedfordians who lost their lives in the conflict. On arrival, the Duke was met by the Lord Lieutenant of Bedfordshire, Helen Nellis and introduced to the headmasters and headmistress of the six schools that form the two combined CCF contingents and their contingent commanders. The Duke also visited Bedford School’s Memorial Hall to unveil a plaque to mark the occasion, which sits alongside his father’s plaque from 1926.

And hired a KKK sculpter to do it

(EDIT! WOW I WROTE MY COMMENTS WHILE BAKED OFF MY ASS AND IT IS A HOT MESS... So lemme direct you to better commentators than I. Original baked off my ass text under the Read More cut, I apologize for failures to convey desired information while elevated 😅 )

Respect The Dead: The Podcast Where We Don't

Full biography as far as the accounts we have, discussion of the original Six Grandfathers and how the land was stolen to make an openly fascist monument.

(EDIT! Begin original text I wrote. It is poorly conveyed and riddled with mistakes. Don't smoke and educate, kids, you'll say some clumsy ass shit )

He did great work but Could Not Deligate Unless All Parties Constantly Worshipped The Ground He Walked On For Doing Stonework Really Good and literally nothing else. Family was rich enough to let him find a hobby he could monitize and he just Did Not Socialize outside his clients-- which included several confederates who were friends with his daddy.

Weath and connections got him the job, the skill Just Happened To Be A Thing He Liked Doing, and he'd roll with literally *anyone* who didn't ridicule him so long as they agreed he was Superhuman-level Special... even his KKK brothers thought he was A Bit Much.

He took that and multiple other things poorly and died part way through the Rushmoore project on the Grandfathers, and his replacement could not match his skill and Would Not Accept Responsibility for the ambition.

Unwilling to let go of a bad idea, the site was named a momument to declare victory and demand everyone pretend it was an Honorable Stalemate until its 5 months later and everyone's too tired to be mad and are just glad some little procedural BS went through that shoulda taken TWO GODDAMN SECONDS.

Wanna know what a system, any system, is designed for?

Look closely for where things take longer, when delays are employed, when questions are uselessly repeated after You've Already Answered; they are fighting you by holding stalemate and claiming victory.

Stay even more aware of when a definitive answer causes cessation of contact; you've identified something important. Deducuing What depends on the details.

The path of Least Resistance is the one it is Of Other's Interests For Them if you take it. Always ask yourself "Why is the path here? Why not over there? Why MUST it be here in this exact place with a root I keep tripping over???

The things They Do Not Want will be placated, dodged, never agreed to, and eventually they may desist if your raise your voice or otherwise display threat... but its better to see how much you can suss out of the Function of the social machines we call Government and Business and Corporation

Too few election results are coming through and turns out I get increasingly eepy at such hours now.

Currently we have our first council results within Greater Manchester, with Labour holding Wigan which is unsurprising as even if not a single person voted for Labour, they should still have had control of Wigan council.

Other changes in term of control of councils:

Hartlepool is under the control of Labour, taken from No Overall Control, same as Thurrock.

North East Lincolnshire has been lost by the Conservatives transferring to No Overall Control.

Probably most interestingly, Rushmoor, a council which has never been under the overall control of a party other than Conservative has flipped from Conservative to Labour in an area which could be classed as the "Blue Wall"
