Rejected petition Stop Religious Education Being Taught In Schools

More details

Religion should be taught through choice, and shouldn't be compulsary in schools. We all have our own beliefs, and shouldn't be forced to learn about other cultures and religions. This lesson should be scrapped, and replaced by a worthwhile lesson like First Aid for example.
