Yes, many religious groups, thankfully not all, insist on preserving antiquated moral values, and perpetuate the discrimination of women and LGBT people.

This contribute to each new generation being less religious than the previous. People are fleeing and for good reasons.

It’s up to each group to decide how to move forward, and whether to move forward at all. I can’t force any change, but I do hope that religions that require perpetuation of discrimination will loose their followers.

You’re assuming god exist, and that churches have a perfect understanding of god’s stance.

Both are doubtful.

Religions are part of society, they’re not outside of it. Their dogma can and do evolve. It wouldn’t be the first time a church reinterpret sacred text to better fit in society, for instance :

Around 434, Vincent of Lérins wrote Commonitorium, in which he recognized that doctrine can develop over time. New doctrines could not be declared, but older ones better understood.[15] In John Henry Newman’s 1845 “Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine”, Newman listed seven criteria which “…can be applied in proper proportions to that further interpretation of dogmas aimed at giving them contemporary relevance.”[

Countries in the UK and Europe have different forms of governments but none are theocracies. Elected representatives make laws, not churches, and churches cannot ignore laws.

That’s a different story for Iran, Afghanistan, the Vatican… and I’m glad we’re not following their example.

they shouldn’t expect the school to change it’s religious doctrine to suit the law

Schools have to follow the laws and regulations. The article states relationships, sex and health education (RSHE) is statutory. If a church’s doctrine dictates that it bans such education from its schools, that means young people will lack relevant education, causing them to face higher health risks.

These churches may need to make tough choices. They could evolve their doctrine to allow their schools to provide proper education, and to make it so their schools ensure young people’s well-being. Or transfer the schools to other organizations that are more able.

It’s a hot topic, and there might not be a political will to enforce this regulation. Until there is, some schools will probably keep failing to provide RSHE.

Government reports found faith schools refusing to teach about same-sex marriage

Okay, and? Why would you expect them to?

It’s the law of the land in the UK, and in many european countries.

School can’t omit that unless they’re not teaching that civil mariage exist, or teach it while falsely claiming it’s reserved to opposite sex couples.

Absolutely. This should go into the old woman yell at cloud category.

Don’t waste time trying to reason them. If you’re not able and willing and sue them to enforce the GPL license, the company won’t care.

You should directly informe one of the organisations mentioned previously, they may have a lawyer and experience fighting this kind of fight.

Best you can do youself is collect evidence that they’re distributing modified GPL software, and write a precise description of the issue, to help these organisations kickstart their investigation into the GPL violation.

This is a common issue in software, not limited to scripting. Software are getting more and more layers of wrappers/adapter code, like a Russian doll. It contributes to dependency hell, as each layer brings new dependencies.

Developers often find it easier to wrap existing apps and software, and add another layer on top, rather than improving or replacing what exists.
