How Much Religeon Should Be Discussed In Our Public Schools?

[Kleveland]

60. None as far as trying to subject young mind to a specific belief/dogma.

However, a study of the world's religions, and how they have influenced civilization as we know it would be an interesting course in a strictly historical sense.

Being aware of the various belief systems does not necessarily harm an inquiring mind.

Forcing any belief upon someone else in my opinion is a "sin".

Myself, my interests lie in Eastern religions and philosophy, which teach being in balance and harmony with nature in all of its forms, including humans.

Contemporary Christianity seems to focus more on exploitation, and false guilt as a means to control those who do not follow blind belief.

I am a firm believer in separation of church and state, and feel basically the same about forcing religion in schools.

Question authority, and think for yourself.
