I was in the brownies when younger and really resented having to pledge my love to both God and the Queen. The whole Scouting movement advocates honesty, and yet seems happy to makes kids who don't believe say it anyway (I guess it depends on what group you were in as to how religious you had to be - I imagine they vary a great deal when it comes to this sort of thing)

The implication was essentially that I would be a better person if I had faith in a god. I was 8 or 9 at the time, but it still made me uncomfortable.

And yes, I heard that figure too, although apparently Scientologists have now overtaken atheists as the least trusted minority...
