Thread Name: BS: Church V State
Subject: RE: BS: Church V State
Only 3% of the House of Lords are Spriritual Members so I would think that would make the religious make up of the House a smaller issue than the existence of the unelected House itself. The Church of Scotland are not represented because historically they fought against state intrusion on the church. The Church of England is ultimately influenced by the state to a far larger degree than any influence the said church has on the state!
