Kiwi Schools Confused about God

Only 640 of 1,600 New Zealand state schools surveyed had religious education classes - even then many didn't know what syllabus they were following.

 

Perhaps the teachers just make it all up. Would it matter? Isn't it all make-believe anyway. David Campbell reports on a country where God is becoming less popular, with 30 schools dropping religious education classes each year. They clearly need to follow Australia's lead with a new multi-million dollar School Chaplaincy program.

What is Balls Radio?

Balls Radio is like talk radio, but for thinking people. Now a short daily occurrence, Phil Dobbie offers his opinions on what's happening, in the UK and overseas: politics, social policy, economics, science, religion. Yes, it's another, slightly overweight middle-aged white man telling the world how it should be. But there's nothing alt-right about Balls Radio. And we try and have fun along the way.
