The mistake I often see is that people assume religion to be just a failed kind of science. This is far too simple.
Maybe I should clarify. No one on this thread said that but Republicans often perpetuate false equivalencies between science and Christianity. They're actively trying to make the Bible taught in schools. That's what I was talking about. Religion should never be taught in any school.
Religion should never be taught in any tax funded public school except in the context of the history of a country or the social makeup of a country. You simply cannot teach about fully about history without the mention of religion and religious based events coming into play.
While in Catholic school, I took a course called World Religions, it was actually a good class.
