No. We were given "Religious education" which educated on the origins of religion, how they evolved, different religious cultures from all over the world etc.

All very valuable education for anyone interested in learning about things and people outside of their own world view.

The fact that you automatically presume religious education is about trying to drum beliefs into people and force them to believe unprovable facts just shows how ridiculous your points are.
