    The State should not be 'teaching' religion; be it in Public or so-called "Private" (public funded) schools. Any that do, of course, must be under Government supervision and in English (so that what is taught is transparent).

    Preferably, ALL schools should teach 'Comparative Religious Studies' or some equivalent, in lieu of the current monotheistic, arguably supremacist, ideologies under the guise of 'Religious Education' (which it certainly is not). This would incorporate a comparison, and inter-relationships, of each of the major Religions, and Atheism/Secularism (although not Religion per se) could be included in these discussions.

    I would suggest that such classes would do much to assist the current failing Multiculturalism.
