Irish schoolchildren to learn about atheism

[CleanShavenJesus]

How about they don't teach them Christianity or atheism, like a normal damn school?

A normal damn school?

Maybe it's different in America, but over here (the UK at least) it's pretty normal to have 'religious studies' or 'cultural studies' as a subject. I actually think this is a relatively good thing, even though I personally found it laughable in school.

I do think it's a good idea that kids are taught something about faiths and non-faith as opposed to not teaching them anything at all.

In American public high schools (in most, not sure about those Bible Belt schools), you can't teach religion as a class.

I agree with you. History classes teach about different religions, but I'm refering to schools specifically teaching and instructing about one modern religion, indoctrinating children.
