You can, thanks to the hairy king Henry VIII ........... who ironically at the time wanted marry his cousin!! ........ and don't me started on the C of E!! I'm technically CofE. It's the religion where you don't neccessarily have to religious and the practicing Cof E members are the least Christian and tolerant people in the world. I thought that was Jeremy BEadle

It's truely one of the few faiths where your copy of the bible comes with an eraser and pencil so you change the bits you don't like!!

Well, the royal family are a fine example as to why you shouldn't do that! Too true. Isn't the queen supposed to have a mental brother that they keep locked in a castle? Not sure about that, however they did marry within the family in an attempt to keep their blood lines pure - that was the theory at the time. However it produced a lot disturbed children some with downe syndrome etc. This was considered an embarrassment and these individuals where locked away in institutions so the general public could not see them and they could bring shame on the house of windsor. Bunch of wankers!

............ but at least they have tenets of faith that they stick to. C of E is quite wishy washy, and like I said more of hobby than a religion!! It's not really a religion thought ............. it's more of hobby!!

Just because you repent on your death bed does not mean you'll go to heaven, you have to be sincere. Also you can be sent to purgatory, until you've repented and the you go to heaven

Just because you repent on your death bed does not mean you'll go to heaven, you have to be sincere. Also you can be sent to purgatory, until you've repented and the you go to heaven again can I point out that purgatory is dogma and not biblically founded. The concept that you can repent on your death bed and STILL get into heaven makes me chuckle. Surely (by biblical definition) repenting is the only way to get into heaven (it's not a meritocracy)
