The education system should try to make children question their religious beliefs

Old habits die hard, i guess. I'm not intending on turning this into a semantical debate, but I'll be defining a few terms to keep everything clear. Definitions:Should: Used to express obligation or duty[1]Educational: Serving to educate[2]Question: To express doubt about; dispute[3]Burden of Proof:My opponent has the burden of proof in the round to show that educational systems have the "obligation or duty" to make children question their religious beliefs. Should the pro fail to prove this, or should I prove the opposite, then the resolution is negated and the Con will win. My Case:My argument for this debate will consist of two sections1. ) The Purpose of Educational Systems:The first argument I will be focusing on is the purpose of the educatonail system itself. The purpose of an educational system in a modern capitalistic society is to train young minds for the workforce so they can become skilled workers and help provide for a better future[4]. Whether this be in grade school where basic maths, sciences, and critical thinking skills are taught, or in colleges and universities where students get a specialized education in their chosen field, the educational system only exists in order to help create skilled workers and provide a better future for the children participating in it. There is nothing in this purpose that would imply the obligation to make children doubt their religion, or question what their parents tell them (Trust me, Hormones already take care of that :P). This would not help the child learn to do better in their chosen field, nor would it provide them a better future, and so forcing teachers to dedicate a period of their day making children doubt their beliefs would be a counter-productive waste of resources as it takes time away from educating students about the already required subjects.2. ) The Right to Practice Religion:I am personally an atheist raised in a Christian household, yet I completely disagree with the resolution. When children are required to be put into an environment designed to dissuade them from following their religion, this conflicts with the child's right to practice religion, which is a fundamental human right[5]. Although I agree that it would be beneficial for children to think about what they hear rather than blindly follow it, brainwashing children into doubting their parents in school is not the answer. If anything, it uses the same blind-following system that the pro evidentally disagrees with simply by making the child blindly doubt information simply because it comes from the parents. If a child is going to questing his/her religion, this should be done on his/her own to ensure thorough thinking of the matter rather than blind doubting simply because of the source. Because this conflicts with the fundamental right to practice religion, the educational system should not be obligated to make children question their beliefs. Unfortunately the character limit prevents me from negating the Pro's case, however my case stands as a direct negation of the resolution. I'd like to take the opportunity to thank my opponent for offering the debate, and I look forward to the upcoming rebuttals.
