So yeah, you do learn about some other religions, but Christianity and Catholicism is the still the central theme. Very little is taught about Eastern religion, although I think we did watch a couple of videos. Then again, like I said, my Catholic education ended in grade 9, so maybe in highschool you learn more about other religions.
As i remeber correctly religion 35 was nothing but other religions..especially eastern...can only watch that film about the ganges river so many times...
