kelbys,
"My point was that NO religious studies should be forced into our public education system!

Our children should not be indoctrinated into religion!"

Sounds like you're having a waa-waa because YOUR religion is under threat. When you remove other people's faiths from a system, all you have left is some kind of humanistic faith and by now the bankruptcy of humanism should be obvious to everyone. Well, at least everyone who's paying attention.

The more teaching we get in school on ALL subject the better prepared our kids will be to move into the world. Always BEWARE of those who seek to limit knowledge, even on subjects that you disagree with. Those types of people always have an agenda and it's never a good one.

(Shouldn't this be in 'philosophy and religion'?)
