So the topic of religion In schools is becoming more popular among many people (specificly christians from what I have seen. My stance is, "keep it out of schools, its highly disrespectful to people who are not one particualar religion". I would like to know where everyone stands on this subject, just for fun. Again, please refrain from being rude to one another
Sincerely,

    I do not believe that religion should be in state run/government funded schools. The government should not be associated with any religion.

    Private schools however, sure. If people want to pay to send their kids to a religious school, I am sure their god will provide.

    I agree, keep it out of schools with one exception. if it specified as a religious school (catholic school).

    I feel like it NEEDS to be in school. Our founding fathers/Washington
    Made it mandatory to have Bible study because they knew how important it is.
    We can "learn" all the worldly wisdom we want,but the fact is it's pointless.
    Wisdom comes from God,and Jesus walked this earth and paid the full price of our
    Sins so we could be reconciled to Him. Whether you deny it or not,it happened.
    Jesus lived a life of love and compassion,setting an example for I
    Us all to follow.

    To be fair, we discuss far more than fitness here, especially in this section. However, the mods created groups specifically for these types of discussion and that is the more appropriate place.

    My advice is to not comment in a thread you don't agree with so it won't keep popping up in "my topics" to annoy you.

    I think it should be from an educational point of view, not a denominational school. I think our youth need to be educated on the values of ALL religions and the histories of them, not necessarily encouraging them to form into a certain religion.
