Modernism gone mad

New religious education guidelines for schools in Norfolk:

Excerpt: (Link thanks to daryl sng)

Christianity
Do use the term 'the Holy Spirit' rather than 'Holy Ghost' which suggests a trivial and spooky concept of the third person in the Trinity. Do attempt to organise visits to a church when they are busy. Visiting an empty building can reinforce the impression that churches are a monument to a faith which is no longer relevant. Don't, when exploring the Eucharist, suggest the bread and wine become 'the body of Jesus' or 'the blood of Jesus'. This suggests almost a cannibalistic consumption of human flesh.

Islam
Do avoid equating Islam with terrorism and violence e.g avoid photographs of Muslims holding swords, Kalashnikovs etc

Judaism
Don't refer to the first 39 books of the Bible as being 'the Old Testament'. It suggests that the books are old-fashioned or out of date. Don't use the term the "Wailing Wall". It suggests that Jewish prayer is negative and moaning. The proper term is the "Western Wall".

Sikhism
Do be careful when showing pupils the kachs. Without preparing pupils they seem to some like merely voluminous underpants and can give rise to a poor response.

Buddhism
Do avoid suggesting that all Buddhists are celibate monks or nuns with shaved heads. Do be cautious about asking pupils to "try a bit of meditation". To have a go at Buddhist meditation comes so close to a faith activity that unless one has the consent of everyone it could create difficulties.

Hinduism
Do be selective when using photographs of ascetics and holy men (Sadhu) and attempt to prepare the pupils before disclosing such material. Photographs of emaciated men caked in mud may merely create the impression that Hinduism is for weirdos or masochists.
