OMG UK NEWS! That's amazing. And I know that the ginger thing is loaded there in a way USians don't get.
It's very religious here, especially in small towns (I am in one). Interestingly, I've had many people go out of there way to explain that their brand of religious is not like in the US, and that I shouldn't feel threatened by it. And on one hand, that's very kind, and on the other hand, that's kinda gross, because trepidation I may feel sucks, but it's a survival mechanism (at home, because I'm gay, and here because I am nominally Jewish).
