Is Britain in moral decline?
Britain is in moral decline say 83% of people polled for the new BBC One religious and ethical programme "The Big Questions". Do you agree?
Religion may be a way of halting this decline. According to "The Big Questions" opinion poll 62% agreed with the statement that religion has an important role to play in the moral guidance of the nation with 29% disagreeing or strongly disagreeing with that statement.
Ninety-three per cent said they would help if they saw someone collapsed on the street but if someone was talking nosily on a mobile phone on a train or bus, less than a quarter said they would intervene.
Also, if they saw a group of teenagers graffiti-ing a wall, more than two thirds, 68%, said they wouldn't intervene.
Is Britain in moral decline and, if it is, is religion the solution? What do you think of the BBC's findings? Send us your comments.
"The Big Questions" launches Sunday, 9 September at 1000 on BBC One...
