And none of this "end times" nonsense as well!

This sounds distressingly familiar, demonstrating that the UK has Christian religious obsessives similar to the ones in the American South. Though in other respects the UK shows signs of becoming a "Jesus who?" society:

Some things children should not be taught, by Thomas Prosser

A scrutiny of the youth evangelism strategies of one of the UK's largest faith groups, evangelical Christians, should give liberals serious cause for concern. Let us take as exemplar the work of Soul Survivor and Audacious, two large British youth evangelical organisations that run holiday camps attracting British youth in their tens of thousands. One striking aspect of these camps is the intensity of the doctrine that is preached and the zeal with which it is delivered. Leaders passionately inform children and teens of their conviction that evangelical doctrines, all of which are of course highly questionable when considered soberly, are absolutely true.

Children at Soul Survivor meetings have, for instance, been told that their generation can help bring Jesus back to Earth within their lifetimes. The "conversions" of children on the basis of such techniques is exploitative and can cause emotional pain when, in later life, it is discovered that such beliefs simply do not bear rational scrutiny. Other lessons preached at these camps are even more potentially damaging to children. At recent Soul Survivor meetings that have been featured on God TV, leaders have told young people they will be judged by God on the content of their thoughts when they die, that witch doctors can stunt the mental and physical capacities of children by cursing them, and that Jesus can heal children of medical ailments.

Prosser argues that concern for children's welfare requires some prophylaxis of the religious environment:

I believe a public commission should be established that issues non-legally binding guidelines on the forms of doctrines that it is desirable that children are taught. The preaching of hellfire or of divine faith healings to children could form part of such guidelines. Non-compliers could be "named and shamed" by such a commission.

Such a venture would carry the advantage of leaving intact the parental right to educate children in their faith tradition, but would also go some way towards recognising the potentially damaging impact of certain religious doctrines upon developing minds.

Given the UK's growing Muslim population, would Prosser also extend this to undesirable Islamic doctrines for children, like the "72 virgins" nonsense?

I continue to wonder how I would have turned out if I had grown up in a more rational milieu which hadn't exposed me to fundamentalist Christianity: None of this foolishness about "getting saved," expecting the "end times," internalizing negative attitudes about human sexuality and so forth.
