Re: Christmas carols in Latin and “Silent Night”

Gabz....Send me a link.

Also....When did it become a conservative or Christian principle or value to **force** Christianity on other people's children and to **force** taxpayers to pay for it? That's conservative? That's Christian?

Also...It isn't religiously neutral for the Christian children! A few sprinkles of Christmas cheer does not make a godless school into a God-centered one. Chalk one up to “diversity” ( cultures being equal, you see. /s ) Unfortunately, the children risk learning to be casual and lukewarm in their relationship to God. Do you know what Christ does with the lukewarm? He spits them out of His mouth! When did it become a conservative or Christian principle to **force** children into a situation where they risk learning to be lukewarm and casual about their faith, or to **force** taxpayers to pay for this religious abomination?

Socialist K-12 schooling is a tuition-free, entitlement, and socialist goody. Why not use that government power to acquire LOTS of free entitlement goodies? That is the lesson children risk learning when they attend their local socialist school. FDR was not an accident. He was the result of one to three generations of voters learning to be comfortable with socialism by attending compulsory socialist schools.

As for my “extremism”, I have been richly rewarded in personal satisfaction to see my ideas, even my exact wording and phrasing, picked up by the mainstream conservative media. Why? Because it is true.

Personally....I think it is time that our nation's socialist K-12 teachers explain themselves. They need to come up with justifications for why they would support teaching in schools where children must think and reason godlessly just to cooperate in the classroom. How could it possibly be otherwise? Maybe you could explain this to me? Why would they hand out textbooks and assignments that support and uphold a godless worldview? Who in their right mind would do that to another parent's child and force taxpayers to pay for it? When did this become conservative or Christian?

Personally...I am at the point that I will not have a teacher from one of our nation's K-12 socialist schools as a friend. Period! Simple! I am done!

But...Gee! Thanks for concern about my downfall. I trust that your concern is genuine.

And...If I am painting with a broad brush send me links to government owned and run K-12 schools that are God-centered (that means every minute of every school day, because that is the very definition of God-centered!). Send me a link to a government owned and run K-12 school that isn't a socialist entitlement tuition-free goody. I have asked these questions many time. No one has ever sent a link.

Re: Christmas carols in Latin and “Silent Night”

Gabz....Send me a link.

First off, I did not say Christmas Carols in Latin, I said one Latin hymn. Is your reading comprehension failing that badly?

Secondly, how, pray tell am I supposed to send you a link to a concert held in the school last week? You are being utterly ridiculous. Either you believe me it occurred or you don't. If you don't, that is your problem, not mine, but I was there and you weren't and my daughter is in that chorus.

Also....When did it become a conservative or Christian principle or value to **force** Christianity on other people's children and to **force** taxpayers to pay for it? That's conservative? That's Christian?

What force? No one is forced to be in chorus, and no one is forced to attend the concerts. As to the taxpayers, well if the standing room only crowd is any judgement, I would venture to say no one had much problem with it. It is well known about this class and there is always a waiting list to get into it. I don't think it would even be offered if there was a problem with it. Do you?

Guess what? Not everyone has your God centered look on life. You have become so fanatical that you are not even paying attention. People are capable of having varying different circles in which they interact that may or may not overlap which have no bearing on their faith in God. I have one circle made up of the parents of many of my daughter's school friends, another circle are from my church, and yet another is from my leisure time. There are overlaps and all are enjoyable and have no bearing on any of us when it comes to our faith. You give our children far too little credit, but that is your personal problem.

Socialist K-12 schooling is a tuition-free, entitlement, and socialist goody.

No, it is not tuition free because it is paid for with tax dollars. What part of children being taught that did you not understand?

I really don't know why I bother saying anything to you because you refuse to consider everything is not as you see it in your extremist tunnel vision view.

Personally...I am at the point that I will not have a teacher from one of our nation's K-12 socialist schools as a friend. Period! Simple! I am done!

EEK - what a horrid attitude. I'm shuddering at that. What a thing to teach children. I would never do such a thing, deciding someone is unworthy of your "friendship" because of their job? How elitist of you.

But...Gee! Thanks for concern about my downfall. I trust that your concern is genuine.

What is genuine is my belief your extremism will be your downfall. You have your followers and psychofants(spelling intentional,) but your extremist attacks will not bring about any changes.
