I went to Roman Catholic schools in this Church of England country, do you think I am alienated as well?
Religious schooling is a good idea I think because they have a better understanding of the students beliefs and can then reflect them on the world outside the school, unlike a school that doesn't understand their beliefs enough to show them how it applies outside.
