Ugandan Primary Schools Unconstitutionally Test Children's Faith

Ugandan Constitution: “Uganda shall not adopt a State religion,”
Ugandan Second Grade test: "Who created you? (satan / God.)"
 

For the past two weeks, the Pathfinders have been teaching at Kasese Humanist Primary School (KHPS), one of the partner organizations we are considering for the launch of the Humanist Service Corps. Before we arrived in Uganda, we already knew KHPS was a bastion of skepticism and scientific thinking in a country where questions of belief dominate politics and policy. However, it was not until we had a chance to review Uganda’s Religious Education curriculum that we realized just how bad the situation was...
 
 
 
Wait... What is this ?!? Is this Uganda, Alabama or Uganda, Texas?!?!
