So if someone stated handing out korans the administration would stop the immediately? Riiight!

[DBrow]

Will this include the Common Core practice of having kids recite the shahada while kneeling on a prayer rug?

[TexasCajun]

Who knew the 1st Amendment stopped at the gates of public skewls.

[Genoa]

Odd, this is just a hoot ‘n a holler from Dayton, Bryan College, etc.

Saw a similar story on this locally last night:

Per the article, there is ‘concern’...and a student felt ‘very uncomfortable’.

Good, no more evolution!

Madison's Notes for the Bill of Rights

Madison used this outline to guide him in delivering his speech introducing the Bill of Rights into the First Congress on June 8, 1789. Madison proposed an amendment to assuage the anxieties of those who feared that religious freedom would be endangered by the unamended Constitution. According to The Congressional Register Madison, on June 8, moved that "the civil rights of none shall be abridged on account of religious belief or worship, nor shall any national religion be established, nor shall the full and equal rights of conscience be in any manner, or on any pretext infringed."

Something very peculiar going on in Tennessee - the islamokazis have been making bold open moves to take over around there. They must feel comfortable about doing that.

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 forget, please feel free to add it yourself.)

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

It saddens me that so few Freepers understand that there is a fundamental conflict between government run schools and the First Amendment.

To maintain order all schools,, both private and government, must restrict First Amendment rights. This is perfectly OK in a private school because parents have **privately** agreed with the policies of the school.

When government schools restrict First Amendment rights it is not OK. One of the worst aspects of government schooling is that children are at risk of learning to be comfortable with government functionaries restricting their God-given rights.

There is no solution to the conundrum. Government schools pit one group of neighbors against another as each strives to impose their worldview on their neighbor's children.

Solution: Begin the process of privatizing all schooling on every level.

I really hate it when the word “religious” or “religion” is used to describe the agenda of the left.

They aren’t against “religious freedom” or against dispensing of “religious materials”.

They’re opposed to Christians, Christianity, and Christian materials.
