Latest census shows that nearly 60% of UK residents still class themselves as Christian, Dick so there is no assumption about it!

I would also point out that the Bible is not a Christian tome - Only the new testament comprising the 4 popular gospels, the acts of the apostles, Revelations and assorted other bits can be claimed as Christian. By far the biggest section, the old testament, is pre-christian and can and has be used by other religions that may or may not necessarily believe that JC was the man!

But, as pointed out, it is all academic anyway :-)
