Just make everyone’s life better – close the thread now. Same old, same old. To pick one small sentence out of a larger article can only have had one intention. Is there any point in yet another bash religion thread??

My view remain that there is no place for any RE education in schools as education is about facts and not stating opinions
Lets also drop art, english literature, music on the same argument. Like it or nor, religion plays an important part in global affairs. Failing to teach about (critically, in the true sense of the word) is simple folly and not education.
Ad CaptJ said yesterday, education needs to move beyond facts and include specifically the ability to analyse critically and form opinions.

you cannot articulate views on things that are simply opinion
…isn’t this exactly what source questions in history are designed to do. Understand the who, why, what, where, how etc aspects of others opinions on historical events?>
Oh, no, what have I done. Leave religion threads alone.
