"Works for me and miles better than what is taught in schools today. The complete absenence of faith in school is baffling when one considers the influence of faith on science, history, literature, law, and even the #1 school subject self-estem / self-centerness."

If you want a religion class in public schools, be prepared for that class to give every major and minor religion from the past 5,000 years equal time. Be prepared for the Scientologists, Moonies, and Raelians to demand their seat at the religious public education table. Children will be taught of Allah and Odin right along with being taught about Jesus, and none will be given any more respect than any other. I'm not saying it's right; I'm saying it's how it'll be.

I'd prefer that over the complete vacuum of faith and morality in today's schools.
