SERIOUS REPLY:
The issue is a LITTLE more complicated in England since they don't have the first and second amendments to protect ABSOLUTELY the right of free religious speech and conceivably churches could be forced to support and allow things that they feel are opposed to their core beliefs. Its one of the down-sides to being a non-constitutional democracy.
