RE is not the subject it is meant to be at my school and it pisses me off that the teachers "impose" there views on us. We raise our own points in lesson which the teacher then agrees with or turns around and tells you are wrong. When the actual basis of RE lessons are you too hear about other religions non-bisistly and for you to then form your own opinion.
I do not belive in God but i do have a interest in what/how people belive in religion an how they interpret it
when i had to sit through this mumbo jumbo, we had a reverend teach us and when we disputed the fact that jesus and god could be real he went ape****!
i wish i had been given the teacher that was athiest - but to be fair she taught the clever ones, at gcse in my mocks i got an F and in the real thing, i got a C without learning anything extra - apart from starting each sentence with " I believe..." i think the good ol' rev disliked me, partly cos i drew all over the front page as i completed the mock in about 10 mins and sat there for 40 mins bored out of my skull.
I dislike people who refuse to accept other peoples beliefs, however there is line, now i dont want to tread on anybody's toes but immigrants - they have a right to follow their religion, but expecting us to change our beliefs and traditions because it offends them in OUR country - however this is skating on thin ice and is a matter for a completely different thread.
I often like to think about what happens to you once you pop your clogs, i.e. what happens, do you get reborn, do you just see black for ages etc etc - sounds sad i know but it intrigues me and when im really bored i do think about it, occasionally you get someone else who wonders the same as you and you can have awsome discussions with them and its intreguing.
phew - thats enough from me
