My son’s public school has “fall festival” every year. It’s put on by the PTA. I noticed one year that the list of events included “Fortune telling”. I went over and watched, and they had a woman with a crystal ball who would tell the kids things like “you will get an A in PE this year.”
I wrote the principal an email explaining the relation of fortune telling and Halloween to the occult and told her that I was sure that if the local Baptist church wanted to have a pastor sit there and tell the kids what God’s will for their lives was for the next year, that would not be allowed. I asked her to please refrain from including the fortune telling in the future.
Her reply was that they were not doing anything that was against district policy and so they would continue to have the fortune telling. Pathetic.
That person and the female leader at the school mentioned here both need to be drummed out of education.
There are a lot like them in them thar hills. With that poor judgment, they picked the wrong field.
“Her reply was that they were not doing anything that was against district policy and so they would continue to have the fortune telling. Pathetic.”
Did you continue to raise a big stink about it? That’s the only way to get outrages like this stopped.
