Religion shouldn't be a major

Change my mind

*you need to learn history to not repeat the past*

Yes

religion is a major component of understanding history

That's why history is important

But focusing on religion only

Nah

Miss me with that

There is private religious schools here in United States.

It is privately funded.

Both religion and politics should be privately funded schools.

I want to take them out of public schools.

Philosophy should stay a major

It should encompass religious studies

let's try to keep philosophy and religion somewhat separate

Uh...

How?

I took a class called Death Across Cultures which focused on how different cultures honored or dealt with death

Japan my dood

Philosophy also already deals with all religions

Philosophy and religion shouldn't intersect

To focus on Christian studies for example is like having a fraction of a philosophy degree

You shouldn't be able to borrow my tax dollars to go major in religion.

Philosophy is literally the concept of how the world does and should work; it’s inherently multidisciplinary and nothing should be excluded from understanding it

philosophy encompasses religion

Not intersects

Philosophy is originally all sciences

Yes

It became more about theoretical speculation

And it branched out

It became pondering about spiritualist nonsense

Not nonsense

thats why I don't like it that much

philosophy and religion may overlap each other, it doesn't not mean one encompasses the other

Not entirely nonsense ***

Religion is a tricky thing to teach.... because SOMEONE will get their panties in a bunch that THEIR religion wasn't taught (or taught right)

I need to do homework so I can’t get into this

Philosophy of religion literally encompasses religion.

For example I was a staunch atheist before I learned about Socrates and Descartes
