Re: Teacher on the Frontline
Actually, in the wild, wild land of Finland (with a state religion of Evangelical Lutheranism, despite which it's highly secular and non-fundie-ruled for the most) you must take either religious education in school, or "ethics and morals".
The RE class is apparently poor at best, and the "ethics and morals" class (called something like "elama katselmus") is apparently far better and actually *useful*.
Unfortunately, the fundies are powerful enough that if you belong to the church, you *have* to take RE.
Sad, really.
