That's why I posted the second link. Quite a few didn't get the memo, it seems, including you. Did you read the second link ? There are lots more stories like that out there. I simply included two. Words are one thing, practice is another.

Yes, the HORROR. What part of no "establishment" don't you get ? Show me where kids are making rosaries, or skull caps, or Jewish prayer rugs, or modelling Noah's Ark or... oh wait, you can't, because it's all one-sided. If the schools want to teach a course on comparative religions that's fine, but that's not what they're doing, are they ? Can I see the chapter on Muslin extremists right alongside the chapter on the Spanish Inquisition in that textbook ?

No, my point is that these kinds of exercises have no business in public schools or public school textbooks, where attendance is forced by law.

It translates back to the wedge issues fought over the political space, of forcing a favored ideology onto some.

My personal solution is to get the government in all its forms out of being in a position to push certain choices that are social issues.
