CONShould public schools include religious education in their curriculum?
Public schools must remain secular to uphold constitutional separation of church and state. Religious education risks endorsing specific faiths, violating the First Amendment’s prohibition on government-sponsored religion. Research shows such programs can foster indoctrination, not pluralism, and exacerbate social divisions. Neutral civic education—teaching ethics, history, and critical thinking—better equips students for a diverse society without privileging any religion.
