Re: Children learning about religion -

I wouldn't mind if my child was given an overview of some of the major religions of today. I think exposure is a great thing, and I would want my child to decide for herself what she wanted to believe as a teenager and adult. Even when I attended Catholic school, I learned about religions like Islam and Judaism in both religion class and history. However, I would have a problem if the school was dwelling on one religion in particular and attempting to instill its values into the children. I definitely believe in a freedom of religion and I would not want anything to be forced on my child.
