Pro-hunting campaigners put their faith in religion

This is silly, yes, but it does underlie some previous discussions we've had about the problem in defining a religion:

PRO-HUNT supporters in Cumbria are signing up to a new religion to protect country sports in an attempt to stem the Government's plans to ban fox hunting. The Free Church of Country Sports claims up to 700 people a day are signing up after the hunting bill passed through the House of Commons.

I do like, however, the comment that the interviewed woman might not join the group because she's not a "church person". Well, I'm not really sure it's a "church", sweetie.
