Barmymoo:
I dunno, I think schools ought to take field trips to different religious places and events. Just focusing on one religion is wrong though.

GarandMarine:
Sure. Under the auspices of a comparative religion class, preferably taught by an atheist or agnostic so you get some fair representation, and even then education would be better served by observing high mass then a church play. Those things should honestly count as Geneva Conventions violations.

Exactly, especially if the trip is explicitly stating that this is the "real" story, which is their way of saying that this is the "correct" religion. At first I was confused with the dad because from the nature of the trip I figured it had to be a religious private school, so why would he send his kid there if he didn't believe or want his kid to? Then I got to the part where it's mentioned as a public school and I was pretty shocked.

The sad thing is, this shit happens all the time in public schools in Australia.
When I was in year 9, our principal made the entire school go to an "Easter Assembly" at a local church where the motherfucker screened the fucking crucifixion scene from Passion of the Christ. He gave no warning as to what would be at the assembly, and the kids whose parents opted out (Because it's opt out RE, what even) were all stuck in the detention room for a few hours whilst everyone else was at the assembly.
