Re: Should atheism be taugh along side religious studies in schools?
It should definitely be taught / considered that atheism or agnosticism are as valid as any other choices, and maybe also evaluate the former Gods and the claims of heresy aginst such things as the Earth orbiting the Sun.

The only proof of religion, has been when it has been proved to be wrong, though perhaps the basic problem is that religion can only exist in the vacuum where proof and science have not yet reached, the same vacuum occupied by sharks and charlatans, the snake oil salesmen, the purveyors of "health giving" radioactive quackery (see "revigator" and be shocked). Belief can be harmful.
