[QUOTE="Welsh Exile, post: 1037925, member: 82670"] Yeah, me too. I’d like to see it branch out to different philosophical disciplines, though, and not just focus on religion, which when I was a kid R.E was a totally pointless class really. It didn’t really teach you much, it also, more importantly, never lets students question religious peoples beliefs. Getting kids thinking about epistemology and moral philosophy is only a good thing, in my book. I agree with you, though, you probably don’t want to venture to much into the political sphere. We need to move away from this pointless idea of teaching kids what to think and start focussing on teaching them how to think. History is good for this as well, imo. [/QUOTE]
