If the majorities will was honored as it should have been in this nation on these subjects over the years, we would not have to worry about a school teaching or ever trying what you just hypothetically suggested they would on our children, but since that has not been the case anylonger in America, I don't doubt anything that will be tried next upon our children in this nation, and yes I am sure we wouldn't like it along with all the other things we don't like that is going on against us/we the majority in this nation right now.I can't understand why religious zealots would insist on pushing their religious beliefs in a public school. School children are a captive audience.
How would you react if your child came home and told you her atheist teacher had told the class there was no god?
How would you react if your child came home and told you that they had been kneeling on prayer rugs twice a day and praying to Allah and she asked if she could do it at home too?
i wonder how they'd feel if their kid's teacher explained that the messiah hasn't come yet and that jesus didn't fulfill the prophesies.
somehow, i suspect they wouldn't be so thrilled about religion mixing with education at that point.
i say, as always, if you can't spend 8 hours a day without praying, you should be in a parochial school. it's really that simple.
