The building of critical thinking skills is conspicuously missing from the general education curricula throughout the United States, and is actively prohibited by the platform of the Republican Party of Texas.

They're necessary given children have credulity built it, of which religious ministries take advantage. In fact the Good News Club is an intentional effort by an Evangelist ministry to mission to kids in public schools. (After School With Satan is TSTs response to it and teaches science and deduction skills.)

Once my grandkid is kitted up with critical thinking, I can figure he'll be adquately equipped to work out his own understanding of Life, The Universe and Everything. At least if he's holding onto religious faith then, it's serving some personal purpose, rather than yoking him into some bastard's religious army.
