Religion in schools


Religion in school in my opinion should not be in school. Now Im not saying that you shouldn't have the you're right of freedom of religion but to have many religions in school these days as we do now we shouldn't just focus on one religion. I think that if you want to teach religion then you should teach all the religions not just one thesis of how we got here than it goes into one religion I don't think its right to do that. So in my opinion we shouldn't teach just one religion, we shouldn't teach any religion.


First I say that we shouldn't teach religion in schools because of the fact that not everyone has the same religion. If they don't have the same religion then I think it would be wrong for them to have to sit in class and for them to hear that there religion there way of life is wrong. That the way they are living their life is the wrong way and to put that in theirs heads at a young age. They will start to begin to question their own religion and question their parents and what they tell them. I think this is one of the biggest problems with public schools and the way they try to put religion and class together.

Second of all I think that if you do want to teach religion in public schools then you should teach every religion then just teaching one and having some kids without the same religion feel left out and have kids mess with them every day for being different or expressing their right to be different. Teaching this in any class is wrong and is showing hate toward every different kind of person and in my opinion it is and will always be wrong.
In conclusion I think teaching something that is basically religion is wrong and will always be wrong. People come over here to get away from just one religion and to be free to live their own lives and be as one nation but how could we do that if we plan out there own life.
