Religion taught in schools? - January 18th 2010, 04:15 AM
Just wondering if at your school (highschool) they teach religion or anything to do with it? Do you like it that they do/don't teach it?

At my school, they teach it. It is the one subject you HAVE to take right through until we finish. Personally I think it is pointless and stupid. It's a bum class for me, its so boring and i just get into trouble. My last 3 years are really important like we have NCEA (which i THINK is equivilant to US SAT's - it gives you credits to get into university) and its like choosing subjects that are needed at university..but i have to waste a lesson talking about something that i dont even care about. I think it should be offered as an option, but its kind of weird that we HAVE to take religious studies over something like English.
