Just wanted to see if I'm being crazy....
Both my children get RE at school, and learn about all the different mainstream religions - including little trips to places of worship. I think this is an important part of their education in terms of understanding their world and support it fully. My work takes me to many different countries, and understanding of the local beliefs and customs is invaluable.
However, as an atheist, I find it really concerning that they are not told at school that absence of religion is OK too. Luckily for our two, they have a mother who does believe in God and a father that doesn't, so they get that information at home.
Does anyone else share my concern?
Thanks. I hope I've explained myself clearly!
