Attend school Then you can learn to read and think critically so that you might make a decision about what religion you want to follow.....or not.

Well they are both important...church is only one day a week and school is all week. Church is more important however. What good is it, if you are the smartest person, but you still end up in hell because you didn't learn what you needed to at church?

Why does it have to be one or the other? Most worship services are short enough and infrequent enough that you can look after secular knowledge and take care of your soul, too

I think overall it is more important to attend school. You need to attend school in order to learn to read and write. If you cannot read and write you will not beable to read the Bible or your instruction book!

If you don't attend school, you might make the mistake of thinking that the things they tell you in those other places are true.

You try and get a job with 16 years of going to church full time on your resume.
Hint: avoid anything involving one way tickets.

School...they'll teach you to think for yourself rather than to follow the crowd unquestioningly.

Education is ALWAYS more important than worshiping a mythological figure that has no more claim to existence than any other mythological figure.
