N2 - This paper is a reply to James Awino's contention made in his recent paper that Religious Education (RE) in Botswana leads to indoctrination and fundamentalism, My argument is that Awino has misread the current status regarding RE in the country. In this paper, I have subjected Awino's paper to critical review and challenge some of the assertions he makes. I end by showing that Awino's conclusions and recommendations are perhaps anachronistic to the crucial developments that have already taken place in the Botswana RE curricula.
