Religion..

If religion can be taught to a child the same way racism can, than I'd rather teach children morals, manners, and basic human rights. Along with everyone is equal, no one is above anyone else. Give them the chance to study about all religions, belief systems, and their backgrounds; so they could START at the age 15, they could use the (so far) life experience and see what they can feel most connected to, what they agree or disagree with, and stop the chance of any bullying or ridicule when they notice that someone has picked another spiritual, self, or religious than the one they themselves have picked. Of course they wouldn't have to pick at 15 what they choose to believe, but having that option of studying all believes would just help us survive and advance as a species; they wouldn't feel the need to judge what someone has or hasn't chosen, they wouldn't feel the need to presume someone's nature or background, they would know that everyone experienced a different path, and that no beliefs belittles a person.
So I HIGHLY DISAGREE WITH THIS PHOTO. The act of removing someone's freedom at such a young and highly influential time, just because it is what you agree with is one of the most cruel, unmoral, and inhuman thing to do.
