in Catechism class the brothers taught us that the pontiff is the closest person to god on the planet and he probably converses with him daily....something i said..."come on,you expect me to believe that?"......the guy puts his pants on the same way that we do,and probably farts too....they did not like that...Why on earth would they do that? Taking them to the Cathedral and showing them the architecture and talking about the saint statues or stained glass windows as art would be perfectly appropriate in my book. My impression from the article is that the kids were just doing the kneeling thingy, not reciting a Muslim prayer. If they were teaching and reciting Muslim prayers, I'd object. I don't know how they do it in HOLLAND which is where this happened.We visited a Native American village (reenactment) when I was a kid but it didn't make me believe that the earth is held up by a Giant Turtle.
And Common Core has absolutely nothing to do with whatever your bitch is, Irish Ram.
What would the left's reaction be if a school took the students to a Catholic Cathedral and taught them the rosary?
Be completely honest
The OP clearly states they taught the children Muslim prayer....now back to my question...what would the left's reaction be if the same took place at a Catholic Cathedral?
As someone who was raised and confirmed in the Roman Catholic Church I can answer that question. The Nuns believed and told us that it is a sin to attend any church but the Catholic Church - another thing which I have chosen to ignore.
LOL, yeah, I made some rather radical comments too. Before confirmation we were asked to take the pledge not to dance or date with members of the opposite sex - or some such promise. Everyone in the class stood but me. Days later, one of the members of the class, a very well developed and pretty girl who lived a couple of blocks away from my home, came by my house and we made out. She stood, but decided such a pledge was silly too. We're still friends more than a half century later.
