Religion v Spirituality
Religion in essence is a form of mythology, at its best addressing spirituality, morality/ethics and social responsibility.
Proselytising religion is a cancer. Religion should be private. Children would be better taught spirituality, morality/ethics and social responsibility, and no religion until they are young adults, say 16.
