I used to walk past it quite regularly taking lunch time exercise from
work to a superb viewpoint overlooking Airedale but never noticed it
was there. There is a Jacobean chapel (1630) just a short walk from it
which is now a performing arts centre
They do everything to keep people coming: Happy clappy music,
talk of families, being the heart of the community, charismatic
preachers, talks, sing-song, have teas, fetes, do charitable things
(like the rest of us) anything but justification for being there in
the first place
So now they are starting to learn for the first time in their
entire history but the lessons are fatal.

It sounds highy appropriate for their convoluted and lost minds

"In our more diverse and secular society, the place of religion has
come to be a matter of lively discussion. It is rightly acknowledged
that people of faith have no monopoly of virtue and that the wellbeing
and prosperity of the nation depend on the contribution of individuals
and groups of all faiths and of none. "
