Religious Schools(After secular school)

[Icefrisco]

What did you guys think of religious school? I went to Hebrew school and it was pretty boring. However, I heard the worst is Greek school because it is just one day a week but is 4 hours long. I feel bad for those kids....

I went to a CofE primary school. I can understand why you would send your kids to a religious school if you were religious, but when it's the only school nearby that actually has pupils get more than a Level 3 in their SATs, you don't have much of a choice, it's kinda irritating. Being forced to write "prayers" all the time and being told off if you didn't "pray" in assembly, combined with teachers who were closet homosexuals without the spine to stand up and admit it because of their beleifs put me off of religion for a very long time.

I go to a Catholic school, but you don't have to pray or sing when everyone else does. Very few people there actually are religious. I'm fine with most of them. The exception is the Vardy group.

Also went to Catholic School. The only things that we had to attend that were religious were once-a-month assemblies and a semester of "Christian" ethics. What they should have said was Catholic ethics... don't even try to bring up capital punishment or contraception there. Oh boy!

[Denny Crane!]

I went to a crazy christian fundamentalist school, if I had to put in hours at a sunday school I would have shot myself.

I currently go to a catholic high school. It can be annoying at times, especially with the dress code. But, we don't have to do much religiously except bimonthly mass and 4 years of theology. Although, you can't really bring up any opposing view points in that class either. Oh, and how could I forget the abstinence talks!

I am against any and all kinds of private school for minors. I think all schooling from preschool to college should be handled by public school systems, and that if one wants a private education at a private or religious school, they should have to wait until they are at least 18.

Even though studies show that privatized (not necessarily religious) school systems (voucher-based like the ones in most of Europe) are proven to have better results?

I went through 13 years of Catholic school. Except for the attempt at brainwashing, it was fine.

[Chaigidel]

religious schools should be limited to people over the age of 45

there is no place for confusing messages in childrens lives, golden rule, study hard and stay in school !

Where I was growing up, all schools were Christian (even public schools), hated every minute of it.

Really how old are you? I thought it was in our constitution that schools should be "free, secular, compulsory" obviously I am wrong on the constitution thing

State school or private religious school? The latter would be understandable.

State school. Lot's of public schools had it.

Cathlic school also (what else )

however there are VARIED differences in "style"

i went to a Jesuit one....pretty liberal.......then there are others

it also depends whether the nuns or the priest preside on the the school, not necesarily the principle but the School President

yeah can be pretty boring.........but all in all i've never encountered AUTOCRATIC people there.in the Jesuit of course cept the nuns and the dominicans.....

[Icefrisco]

I must have confused you guys. I was talking about religious schools that happened after secular school(e.g. Sunday School).

[removeduser_426582376423734]

Oh. Well that's boring then.

[Erwin Rommel]

Sunday School?

LOL even us would find it TOO much

its much more of a voluntary basis anyway

[The Good]

I go to a Christian school. The denomination is Calvary Assembly of God. I think it's good.
