Well, Mr Teacher,Early America you were required by law to attend specific State approved churches.No one is forcing religion on anyone except muslims.Was it also public education that told you that schools decided God must be removed from public schools?
No. that would be the court system. God has no business in schools, unless it is a private school and that is how it operates. You cannot force religion on people.
So I would not be forcing religion on my students who were Protestant, Catholic, Jew, Muslim, and who knows how many atheists and other religions by promoting my own view of religion in the classroom?
Yet Jews, Quakers etc flourished.
Was it right? I donāt like the idea. I oppose Christianity being taught in school more than every atheist. I know how you teachers screw everything up.
But thereās nothing wrong with a teacher telling his/her students they are all special and created in the image of God and should act like it. Thereās nothing wrong with a 5 minute period for students to pray for their teacher and parents which occurred for decades.
OK, dumbass! I know you have this overarching desire to prove your ignorance in every post, but you need to give it a f-ing rest!
Why do you think teachers have any part of the decision making process?
You said "early America". That stopped with the ratification of the Constitution you imbecile! Why don't you enroll in a local community college and study a little American history instead of spouting your bullshit?
Whose God are we talking here? As I said, I once taught in a school where I was the only American in the classroom. My students were Protestant, Catholic, atheist, Muslim, and who knows how many other fringe religious groups!
You would the first one howling when someone gored your ox!
America was founded as a Confederacy. And it took several decades to correct that mistake.
In the meantime, citizens of America were required to attend specific State approved churches. And you faced arrest if you didnāt go.
While I know a 5 minute prayer period for students to pray for their teachers and parents offends you, thinking people know it has a positive influence on young people of all faiths.
