I wonder when the Muslims and the Atheists will collide. Or the gays and the Muslims.

Should be interesting and I hope that it happens sooner than later.

If it is civil disobedience to ask God to bless America, then let the students, and the rest of us, be civilly disobedient.

They won't.

Atheists -- I've known a lot of them -- do not REALLY oppose religion. They oppose Christianity. They hate it and they fear it. They want it stamped out.

Islam? [shrug] They won't have so much of a problem with it.

That’s why Islam will likely be the weapon that God uses to put the West’s secular nihilism back in its place.

We have plenty of Muslims in north Jersey, but our fastest-growing population is Indians. Some school districts are adding “Diwali” as a holiday; Christians should probably accept that rather than one day have their children going to school on Christmas.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the "other" articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Yup. Exactly. Apparently they have a vendetta against Christianity.

I suggest that you point this out to your atheist friends. I bet that they have a righteous attitude about their beliefs. A lot of atheists seem to. Then the next question might be - why do they hate Christians?
