Subject: RE: BS: teaching religion in secondary school UK
Well we taught our children

To respect other people and be helpful
To be well mannered
Not to go round swearing even if they hear it all day at school

They do not hang around on street corners making a nuisance of themselves

Surely these things have nothing to do with religion. They are common sense, and to me is very much about trying to live peacefully with other people and respect them the same way as you would expect to be treated.
