Continuing from topic further down!
Religion/creationism
If you'd taken the time to read my post, you'll see I'm in no way a bigot good sir. I also never singled out any one religion (as they are all the same to me as there has been at least 4000 gods since records began, Apollo, Thor, Enke, etc...)
I was/am a Roman Catholic, but I chose not to follow it anymore, and luckily as it was Christianity I walked away from, there were no repercussions for doing so, unlike some other religions were the penalty for doing so can be death!
Also, I don't want to exclude my kids from the others, like I said, I really don't mind them learning about any religion/culture, as I do think there are some good story's with moral fibre in them. And just because people believe god or it makes them feel better, does not make it true!
As I was quite insulted as you called me a bigot, I'd like to ask you, who is your god? Muhammad, Enlil, Zeus, kalkugan, Jesus, Odin?
Peace

Ps! I'm sure that anyone from this site has read past posts of mine, they would agree I'm certainly not a bigot. I see every human being as an equal, with the right to believe whatever they like. All I'm saying is, when kids are taught religion, it should be made clear that it is only faith based and not factual in the slightest!
I agree mate, religion shouldn't be taught in schools.
also if it isn't already it should be an optional subject.

Great to see so many like minded people on here. Thanks for the replys/posts guys.
I'd like to say to the gents/ladies that have not agreed with some of our posts to reply with a rebuttal as to why they disagreed without a reply? This site is for discussion and debate, and you have every right to say your piece here, even though some may not agree with your views. Thing is, if you have the time to click the disagree tab, surely you have the time to reply with a decent response instead of just clicking disagree, or is there no solid response ready at your disposal?
Peace
