>tfw made the religion teacher cry because I said marriage was a stupid, discriminatory institution which only sheds light on exactly how fragile the relationship is.

That lady was nuts though. She cried like every other day and told us she hated us with a passion and that we ruin her life. We were in 5-7th grade.

Religious dogma is mandated in your schools? What third-world shithole do you live in that people don't even have freedom of association?

You'd be surprised how many "atheists" there are in Christian private schools.

Religious education, in the UK at least, is about studying other religions pretty much. It's basically an attempt at 'improving understanding' or something like that.

Then there's Christian schools. They have the same sort of lessons but tend to focus a bit more on Christianity, obviously. I've experienced both secular and religious schools.
