Antidisestablishmentarianism

As part of the reaction to the Pope's announcement of his sheep-stealing plans yesterday, Andrew Stuttaford harrumphs over at the Corner:
The Church of England is...the state church (and so it should remain), one of the essential elements, however neglected, however frequently absurd, of what England is.
And yet Stuttaford is an unbeliever, a contributor at Secular Right, the blog for purported conservatives who are militant secularists.

Is it not appropriate and necessary that the main defenders of the Establishment should increasingly be atheists and scoffers?
