British Humanist Association Campaign regarding the UK national census

For anyone completing their UK census forms in the near future, the British Humanist Association is running a campaign encouraging people to tick the 'no religion' box. Census information is used in policy-making - many people apparently opt for 'Christian' if they were christened, regardless of whether they ever go to church or believe in a god.
There is more information on the campaign and its background here:

Thank you - I wasn't aware of the association with Lockheed Martin.

Re Ra - I see your point - there's clearly no better explanation for sunrise/sunset...
