Regarding the idea of a secular Sunday School: you know how we in the skeptical community are always griping about the sorry state of critical thinking in the education system and the public at large? A secular extracurricular class on critical thinking, reason, and the scientific method would be awesome and also something that could be pitched orthogonal to any religious disagreements (so parents think “oh, logic” and not “oh, ideology” – the myth of atheist brainwashing is dangerous and something we need to fight).
I for one wouldn’t mind spending a day every week teaching kids Russell and Popper.
