It's a horrible story of torture and execution. Should young children be taught it in school?

Probably not. Though, I doubt the torture and execution of it is taught in any gory explicit detail.
Moving away from school though, I do wonder how exposing young children to the NEWS affects them.
Afterall, it's a mostly confronting, horrifying and depressing daily cycle of information.

Afterall, it's a mostly confronting, horrifying and depressing daily cycle of information. I suppose it depends on what you describe as gory detail. Jesus was nailed to the cross; that's a gory detail. His side was pierced with a spear; that's a gory detail. He was left to die a slow death; that's a gory detail. Take the gore out, and there won't be much left. |

You'll find they wont be taught anything about Christian religion in schools ... the woke snowflakes have made sure of that.

I’m not religious but considering some of the stuff they have access to on the web this is if you’ll excuse the pun Childs play.

or Guy Fawkes?
Imo - if it as taught without emphasising the horrific reality. Ten year olds are able to handle some of the reality. Most of what a young child learns is 'fact' and unconnected to their experience until they get above ten

Yes, but I wouldn't trust the curriculum to teach history objectively. If they could then they should also be taught about 20th century leftism and the hundreds of millions of people who died under left-wing regimes.

I'd be more concerned having gender-odd folk reading their preferred choice of children's material to small children and warping their mind; rather than them being told Jesus was crucified - put on a cross and left to die. |

They are teaching children that when they are dropped off at school in the morning by their 'dad' Andy, that in the afternoon there's a possibility he could return to pick them up as her calling him/herself Anna, they expect kids to get their heads round that.

I suspect that white kids being told how their ancestors oppressed millions of people and enslaved millions more would be more traumatic than the crucifixion.
As a kid we were told about it every Easter . Afaik none of us were upset about it .

The detail is 'told to children at school'. They learn that Jesus was nailed to the cross, etc. I see you've tried to change the subject. This thread is about 'warping children's minds' with horrific stories, and exposing them to crucifixes and other images of a man with a large wound in his side nailed to a cross. If you are concerned about another matter, start your own thread. |

If they could then they should also be taught about 20th century leftism and the hundreds of millions of people who died under left-wing regimes. And the millions of people who died during early capitalism and under the excesses of the far-right. But that's not the subject of the thread. |

Yes. Is that worse than exposing children to images of horrific cruelty? It's notable that the Christian Right who complain about the affect these things have on children are happy to expose those same children to horrific images. |
