"Thanks for the link. But being sued to pull a book and pulling a book because it offends one person are two different things. Agreed?"


Yes but you seem to miss the point. The lawsuit is because.........they refused to pull any books on the subject, even though many complained. Yet this school pulls Huck Finn, when one complains. Quite a double standard. Not to mention the books many complained about were NOT classics, in fact are quite new and are pushing an agenda.

I see. I got the point, I just didn't realize that we were on the same page. Thanks.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Good Point!

Down on the Animal Farm, the politically favored get to sleep in the barn. The rest get the barn.

Do you see? It is impossible for the government to be neutral to all parties involved. It can not have the books in the classroom and not have them at the same time. It is impossible!

No matter what the government does it will favor and ESTABLISH the political, cultural, and RELIGIOUS beliefs of the politically powerful. At the same time is WILL actively and even maliciously destroy the values ( some of them religious) of the less favored.

This is why government schools are an abomination. They will ALWAYS deeply violate the freedom of conscience of the less powerful. The pigs living in the Farmer's House will alway get to indoctrinate the rest of the animals.

Why doesn't someone drive a stake into the heart of government schooling? Why doesn't someone sue these government school monstrosities for violation of free assembly, free press, free speech, and establishment of political, cultural, and religious belief?
