it's certainly a touchy thing about private schools teaching certain things, do private schools in the UK get government subsides and any money, or are they truly private (the US gov now provides money for private schools, mostly faith based) and thats just the thing.......
the fact that some schools omit certain histories is potentially lethal, that it unintentionally in-beds harmful bigotry. it's one thing to be sensitive to other religions, but when radical muslim groups publicly protest "Death to the UK" on London streets, well put it this way, they may be a minority in the muslim community, but how often do the most violent and ruthless attain power, how deeply embedded is the the current US administration indebted to the the extreme right christian community, with a growing muslim population, yes it will be mostly moderate populace, but how many of their Imams will be so tolerant of secularism and human rights when it doesn't suit their needs?
it's so in depth and convoluted, that talking about global sectarian education or lack there of gives me a headache
