Self-centred little punk should learn to obey school rules

Self-centered little punk?

I tend to think that the little tails trying so hard to use the courts to wag the big dogs in society are much, much, MUCH more self-centered and extremely punkish.

We have a match!

The group has filed a federal lawsuit against the school system, saying it violated Arthurs’ freedom of speech by not allowing him to wear a Day of Truth shirt and to pass out the leaflets during noninstructional time

[Zack Nguyen]

He was told he could not wear a religious T-shirt or distribute religious literature because that would be “pushing his religion on others,” the lawsuit said, and “religion is not allowed in school.”

Obviously. I mean, we can't have a contrarian viewpoint represented in a place of learning. Certain viewpoints must never be represented because "religion is not allowed in school." Except, of course, secularism, which is "neutrality" because it is aggressively atheistic.

And what this lad did would scarcely have rated a yawn in the first half of the 20th century. Who's trying to wag the tail and who wants it to just stay put?

[Quix]

Thanks.

But that's not the tail wagging the dog.

The proportion of Christians in the culture is consistently found to be in the 70-80% range.

Actually, ISLAM and WITCHCRAFT and a host of other RELIGIONS are fine.

It's virtually always ONLY CHRISTIANITY that is raged, ranted and ruled against.

Talk about duplicity, hypocrisy etc.

Ahhhh, but the NWO folks have spoken . . .

NC bump. Biggest county in the state IIRC

[billbears]

Landlocked that is. Dare may be larger

Interesting how the other students were allowed to pass out literature during the day of silence.

Did the school officially sanction everyone else's handouts?

Obviously "Gaynor" didn't get where he/she is today by being studious.

This seems silly to me. I still live in a southern red state(LOL arn't they all)and I know of two schools that still say prayers before football games, lets the school Christian Student Group hold Easter music sing a long in the cafeteria and still has a school sponsored Baccalaureate with graduation. The ACLU has not shut everyone down. There is still rebellion in the country.

I was at an event this weekend. Two men were holding hands.

They are here. Can't just have their lives; but insist on making the personal "political".

Bloody shame.

[Tax-chick]

When I start to worry that I'm not providing an education equivalent to the government schools, something like this comes up!

[Alia]

lol! No kidding. I used to worry too. But seeing my kids at 9th grade level passing the high school profiency exam, in spades, made the worry not so worriful. In fact, I was grateful for the HS proficiency exam, in CA.

At the time I was HomeSchooling, the School Union-ists And Pub Ed Marxists were trying to prohibit Homeschoolers from being allowed in the colleges. My kids broke the mold and I had to go through some face-on showdowns with "officials".

But my kids were punished by activist academics. Singling them out as evil, rotten students who didn't belong at college. Accusing my kids, in the classroom of being "racists". Their thinking? My kids were taking the classroom spot of more "worthy minorities".

My kids retorted -- that minorities had the same opportunities, if not more, to apply to the college. So, we then had to fight the "system" to make those teachers stop automatically giving D's to every paper and assignment handed in by my kids.

One college professor even went so far as to say: "Look, I'll allow you to sit in my classroom, but shut your mouth".

My kid had to hold me back. My child reasoned with me. She said "Mom? There are at least 26 students in her class". The female professor speaks "diversity and tolerance" and her treatment of me might just wake up some of the other students." My daughter was 14 when this happened.

And my daughter refused to shut her mouth in this female professor's class. Refused. When she had something to say in the class, she said it. It did wake students up.

I ate Tums.

[Tax-chick]

I don't think I could handle that much stress :-). I guess we'll find out next year, when Anoreth is old enough to take community college classes. Maybe we can find something without nutty leftists!

It is a sad situation when a Superintendent of Schools is so ignorant of the Constitution that he believes, "separation of church and state" is written in the constitution.

Stupider still to believe the lie, that only Christians see the absurdity of the homosexual agenda.
