Question I attend a weekly "Philosophy" class which teaches us that this life is a dream and that following re-incarnations (until we are "realized") we will end up in an eternity of bliss. This philosophy is being taught by an organization which runs a junior and secondary school and is presumably teaching this same philosophy to the students. My children do not attend these schools nor would I want them to as I am especially opposed to the theory of karma and the idea that a person who suffers misfortune in this life is paying for past misdeeds. I feel that it is wrong for the school to be teaching these ideas under the guise of "philosophy" as I feel that the school in in fact teaching a religion. Am I right or wrong to be suspicious?
