By integrating critical thinking exercises into the various scholastic syllabi By replacing religion classes with ethics. By ensuring that everyone has a basic science understanding, not as in the hard theories, but as a way of analysing information at hand. Only when people can think for themselves will we have a real and functioning democracy
there is no need to segregate science and religion. a holistic approach to science, philosophy and religion will empower people to make an informed decision while keeping in mind ethics, morality and faith in others
I support this idea but I'm not sure religion lessons should be replaced by ethics classes. Despite not being a believer myself, I appreciate and respect that a large % of the population are. Can't they co-exist?
Dont agree with replacing religion with ethics. Isnt religion based on ethics already?
I think Ethics should be made mandatory for everyone. We need citizens who think.
