I agree, all schools should be atheist.
Funny thing Mozzer my parents wouldn't have touched a church
with a barge pole, remember years ago when at 6 o'clock on a Sunday
the BBC and ITV would show some religious programs ?
well for years i thought the TV needed to be turned off to give it a rest.
but even i, was indoctrinated at school, when i was about 9 by some born
again loony.

I don't agree with that

Schools should be religion neutral. Religious Studies should be
removed from the curriculum and replaced with philosophy, and within
that the teachings of faith should form a subset as there is value in
exposing young minds to some aspects of what they contain, but with
all the dogma and guilt stripped away.

I do not follow a god, I do not see the relevance, but I do see value
in the Beatitudes or The Four Noble Truths in Buddhism but only along
side things like determinism (for example).

I think we need free schools Ron where science and evolution is taught
and also a brief introduction to religious thought provided.

I hope Dawkins rolls out these schools in the major cities. I would have
loved my children to have attended.

The only trouble is Mozzer that Dawkins has become some sort of deity
himself. Some people seem to worship him as the all wise all seeing rational
human.
