Even if we were to have religious study that didn't look at it from a biased point of a view saying wether or not it's right, it would be unfair to any religions not taught about. Also, a lot of different sects of religions may be offended if their religion is viewed in one way of their religion which doesn't apply to their sect.

I was appalled to find that public schools are still teaching religious studies as opposed to more modern and open ethics, values and morals classes and looking at the variety of religions around the world. What are the non-christian children meant to be doing at this time in class? Surely our children have the right to choose their religion in our society of freedom?

Hopefully we can teach future generations how to open their minds to different ways of thinking, allowing them to decide for themselves what they wish to believe, if anything

Pupils should learn the bare bones of each belief system without any bias, and it must be stressed constantly that there isn't a single fact or shred of evidence to support any of these ideas. If, even once, you hint that there may be some 'truth' behind any of these ideas, then you seriously compromise the purpose of education. Teaching legitimizes misguided & dangerous ideas.
