Religion

Teaching religion in school is causing controversy between students who are of a different religion. Well in my religion it is often required to know about other religions like Christianity, Buddhism, being Jewish, Catholic etc. I think that we can talk about the history of religion to a certain extent some people think that other religions are discussed more in class than others. I remember one incident when I had to stand out from a trip because we the people wanted us to go in a Jewish temple there were five of us. We didn’t think it was appropriate for us to go in a place of worship that was not our own.

In science class some people say that Teacher should not be able to teach evolution in schools because evolution takes away from what some students might believe in like when it say that man evolved from animals and parents think that the bible tells how people came to be on earth but scientist have tangible evidence of how things changed and evolved like fossils even though I believe in a specific god to some people they believe in evolution because they see that all the facts add up.

Even though they say that evolution is only a theory it has been proven that we humans have the same number of DNA as the gorillas, apes, chimpanzees all different types of the same species.
In our school specifically people rarely talk about there religion and if they do its not like they are trying to convert anybody to a different religion.

In my opinion religion should be scarcely talk about in class because some people think that their religion is best and they don’t want to know about any other religion but to me that a little absent minded of anybody who thinks that way. In school some people joke and kid about religion and I think that’s not right for them to do that especially if it’s not their own religion.
