The joke being, there are two hours a week for RE and one for chemistry, physics and biology.
At least we've got only one per week.
We don't have classes of ethics, neither of History of Religions, though there are a few politicians who believe those subjects are important to be introduced. I believe they're important regardless of whether one is an atheist or not.
The other horror to the Church is the desire of some politicians to change the Religion subject so that students either don't receive marks, or they simply do but the marks not to count at the end-year average mark. If this is implemented, then a lot of students would opt out the Religion class, because the main reason most do opt in for it is because it helps raise the end-year mark (and also, the end-year mark helps after you finish the school / high school, increasing your chances to get at the desired high school / faculty)

At least they don't look angry. More funny were, during the time of presidential elections, the images & video recordings of the supporters of the Prime Minister. The news were saying that there are a lot of young people, but the videos showed virtually all were 60 - 90 years old people, some bored, others angry (why angry? I dunno), shouting with nerve this guy's name:
