I think in secular education it is important to teach
students about all religions, and all spiritualist and
materialist philosophical traditions. This should be
done in a philosophy or social studies class. Secular
education does not mean expunging education of all
references to religion and religious ideas. Students
ought to be allowed to compare and contrast facts
about all religious schools of thought from a
historical as well as contemporary standpoint. The
only things that should not be part of secular
education are chauvinism and indoctrination.
Cheers,
Santosh
