The Religion I'm studying hardly covers actually sitting down and studying other religions to be fair.

It's Philsophy and Ethics of Religion. Talking about the meaning of life, life after death, abortion, euthanasia, and topics such as those.

I think that people who don't take RE at the level that I do assume that we sit down and learn facts from other religions, which is rarely the case at all.

It opens your mind and makes you think.
It's not about trying to brainwash you into practising another religion which isn't your own.

Z - you can't use the attitude of your teacher or your ability of understanding the subject in defence of saying that RE shouldn't be taught.
