We also had a Worship Chapel every Thursday morning.

Either way, I think it speaks volumes about the diversity of religious education where you studied.

Well, it is a private school. You pay to get your kids in, and you see what is offered before you decide to pay. It's not like they're hiding what they teach. Plus, it is a Baptist school, and you know how Baptists are in their avid preaching. My parents chose to put me there and I got a wonderful education.
As for religious diversity, I took a class in Philosophy in college and we learned much about different religious and non-religous ideas and ways of thinking. It was taught by what I term the "ultimate skeptic." Whenever you stated anything, he would pretty much counter it or question it. If you believed in God, he questioned it. If you believed there is no God, he questioned it. If you believed in Creation, he questioned it. If you believed in Evolution, he questioned it. If you believed the world was flat and sat on a turtle's back, he questioned it. If you even believed that other people are really conscious and have a self like you (one of the simplest assumptions), he questioned it. He questioned his own existance, our existance, the existance of the universe, the existance of God, and pretty much anything we could throw at him. We got into some very heated debates, and some people left in the middle of class periods, not able to take it.
When you end up questioning everything you've ever believed in, you end up finding out what the things you believe in are made of.
