What a beautiful piece of writng . How true what the writer says . There is too much hypocricy in the world . It is time we came out of it, religion or not . who is fooling whom by having secret agenda's , only themselves as people can very well see through them

I'm agreeing that we need to have transformative religious education and not just a subject being taught though I dont know if . This is in fact what we've been trying to do through 'learning to live together' our interfaith and intercultural Ethics Education program for children and young people.

The euphemism "religious education" is nothing more than indoctrinating our children into uncritically believing religious dogma. So called religious "education" is not education at all. It is merely indoctrination. Children should be allowed to think freely. Children should be allowed to choose their own religion (if any) without being indoctrinated into the parent's religion.
It is myth among Sri Lankans that morality comes from religion. If morality comes from religion, how can we decide whether it is moral to make human clones. No religion on earth has said anything regarding whether human cloning is good or bad. In reality, morality is totally independent from religion.

Religion is the problem and not the answer for peaceful co-existence between communities. Teaching ethics is better as it does not divide. Science is the only way we can derive real knowledge about the natural world and our place in it. Religious faith simply confuses and divides.
When one person suffers from a delusion, it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion. – Robert Pirsig
