What are your thoughts on this?? Is this against the secularism or a good step to teach children about Indian culture??

You again prove you have soft spot because you went to christian school.

I don't have a "soft spot" for any particular kind of people. I think every religion has fanatics which are ruining the name of their religion. People should treat each other with mutual respect and warmth with no prior bias.

only pointing to the tilt in the edu landscape

So, your point was I have a "soft spot" for them because I studied in their "kind of school". If I had studied in a different school, would that make me hate the other "kind" of people? Honestly, I've not come across these "moral education" classes kids had to go through. They did have some Sunday school classes for Christian kids (which like I said wasn't part of school curriculum) and had Christian kids from other schools which came on Sunday for that 30mins-1hr class. Did you study in the school you mentioned? I haven't been taught about Christianity in school. And btw, during Indian music classes we were taught bhajans, irrespective of our religion.

If your point would have been people should educate their kids about Hinduism but outside of school curriculum, then yes, I'd agree and that's what even the school I went to did. But you can't make all the kids of all religions learn about 1 religious text especially when it's in the academic curriculum.

it is education in madrasa from young age that primed muslim adults to go for partitiion. They were very clear they cannot be under infidels.

And look what the religious extremism got them? Do you want to include religion as part of the academic curriculum and make India potentially similar to the disaster that country is?
