Fortunately, my parents are atheists so I never believed in anything.
My father has a polish catholic socialist (almost communist) dad, who forced him to go to church, and an anti-religion mom, almost intolerant towards religion (she raised me in part)
My mother has a communist father, anti-religion.
My parents didn't give me a religious education. They wanted my brother to be baptised (catholic) to please my grand-father, but the priest refuse, because my parents were not married at church and they admitted to be unbelievers.
So, no religion lessons for me at school. In Belgium, in public schools, you have to choose a philosophical lesson : catholic, protestant, Islam, Judaism, orthodox or moral (for the unbelievers and those who don't have the expected lesson, like Jehovah witnesses).
In the moral lesson, the teacher doesn't tell us that there is no god, but tell us that some people believe, some don't, and we spend a few time to learn about the monotheists religion. The teacher teach us to respect everybody, to share, to respect olders, to give them seat on the bus, to respect animals and environment, etc.
At high school, we debate about freedom of speach, abortion, death penalty, etc.
Sometime, all classes get together so exchange points of view, etc.
I think that's interesting
Thank you for reading my life
