Date: 2017-Jul-23, Sunday 02:10 (UTC)I'm starting to wonder if we wouldn't all benefit tremendously from adding more Theology to basic school curriculum. We are taught History with little fuss, but religion's hand in shaping the story of humanity is undeniable. It's... pretty absurd to me to talk about one without the other, tbh. For example: I remember learning what had happened during WWII and the Holocaust in high school, and yes, I understood it was awful. What I didn't understand is WHY it happened. Not even a guess. It's not enough to say "oh, Hitler was an evil dictator" in my opinion. I don't feel like there's enough context for what happened without diving in to where the insidious stigma against Jews actually comes from. I realize this is a complex can of worms I'm suggesting we as a society open, but I think, if done right, it could only be to our benefit.
