Also I have come across many people who have no religious belief at all but who can admire the architecture and indeed history of Church buildings and monasteries too. |

..I agree with this Samuel, learning different religions is also learning different cultures which only creates understanding and leaves for less prejudice etc...one of our classes recently met up with a class in a London city school and we're a country school with mainly Christian families and pupils whereas the other school is mainly Muslim families and children and I think only positives can come from them discussing differences in school/class sizes etc and general school ethics differences and also discussing aspect of their culture with each other and from a very young age...it could be much more potentially 'damaging' for them not to have these type of visits and interactions and also that may include places of worship as well... |
:clap1::clap1::clap1: To ALL Tibbies who have posted responses on here for their insight, intelligence and reasoning.
"Give me a child until he is seven and I will give you the man" So better to teach integration, tolerance and harmony, through education and association, than incubate racism, intolerance, and discord through segregation and ignorance. |
Stupid. Muslims still went to Church visits and Christians went the Mosque etc. Not sure why an Atheist couldn't go either.

better to teach ALL children that religion is backward and a superstitious cult fetish and move on as a humanity

If they have questions, and their parents view is to pretend religion doesn't exist or that it isn't up for discussion, they will go elsewhere to find the answers, and are therefore more susceptible to brainwashing. I've seen it happen |
An atheist mum has stopped her children from going on school trips to churches, mosques and synagogues because she does not want religion forced on them.
Claire Baker, 32, says she believes an atheist upbringing is as much a choice as being brought up with a religion - which she does not want forced on her son and daughter. ..that doesn't really feel as though there is any choice and feels really she's doing the same thing that she objects to, which is stopping them from experiencing any choices..and forcing her decisions about religion onto them...surely they can only make choices if they're given experiences to make those choices... |

Atheists are as bad as religious people and this woman is a hypocrite.

..yeah I agree that she seems doing the exact thing that she's so against...posting her comments on Facebooke etc,/her objections doesn't make me think that she's giving her children a free choice a free choice would be a neutral stance and allowing her children to have access to everything they need to make their choices and helping them with that if she felt they needed it...it's just strange thinking, not really logical... |

Dear me just because they don't go to a mosque or church they can still understand cultural and ethical diversity, I agree with the French perspective and believe the arts are a better tool for teaching than religion.

She's their mother; it's up to her. Nothing to see here.

..yeah I agree letmein, it is her choice as a parent because there is always the option of not allowing her children to participate..but that's the thing though, she wants them to have free choices without influence etc as she sees any religious based activity or trip and yet what she is doing is in itself influencing by showing her disapproval in such strong and definite ways..in not experiencing these things then how can they make free choices...their choices at such a young age will inevitably lean toward their parents views which is fine and understandable but it reduces balance also... ..I would think also that in a non Christian school and also with the cost of the visit that at the most this would be an annual trip for that year group so it wouldn't really indoctrinate or brainwash in any way and I think that's also what she's not considering...also it's not just that one day and visit that they're missing out on...it also excludes them from the excitement/build up etc that their peers are part of and then the excitement of discussing it all afterwards..when parents exclude their children from anything at school, I'm not sure that they always consider that exclusion from other perspectives for their child as well and for their child that it's less going to in any way cause influence etc and they're not thinking of it as a 'religious trip' themselves as such but more just an exciting school visit and a more chilled time to spend with their classmates...it just feels as though it's becoming more something of more importance and more what she sees as 'negative and influence' because the parents themselves are making it so and by doing that, causing strong influences themselves... |
