# So what's it really about, then?
The way people are reacting to what the Archbishop of Canterbury didn't actually say about Sharia law, you'd swear someone's whacked the Queen, stomped on her crown and hung her lifeless corpse from a lamp post outside Buck palace. I mean, let's be honest, separation of church and state isn't exactly one of the United Kingdom's most treasured values, no matter how secular it (mostly) is.
So is it just me, or does the entirely disproportionate outcry paint a less than pretty picture of British society? Or does the media just reckon there are enough racist and xenophobic Brits that sensationalising the hell out of this will drive up ratings/readership?
