Anseo.net - If I were the Minister for Education
Episode 083: Scrap the Catholic Religious Certificate
04 Dec 2023
Join me as I tackle a question that I feel we should be asking more often: Is the Catholic Certificate in Religious Education discriminatory? Following on from Peter Maguire's excellent article on the subject, I dive into all sides of the debate, chatting about the contents of the certificate, the challenges it poses for non-Catholics, and the arguments for and against its requirement. Strap in for an honest, no-holds-barred conversation (with an alien) that'll hopefully make you rethink the education system and what I would do if I Were the Minister for Education.Show notes, as always, on https://simonmlewis.medium.com This is a public episode.
