Don’t let the facts get in the way of martyrdom.

The article posted is a bit deceptive about what happened.

Some of the “innocent” activities included loading the Christian kiddies up with Jesus pencils and candy canes with Bible verses attached to distribute to their classmates.

This wasn’t a normal purchase from the local Wal-Mart. The parents obtained the materials either through their church or a Christian bookstore with the intent to use their kids to convert others without the knowledge or consent of the other parents.

If Islamic kids handed out face veils with verses from the Koran during Ramadan, you’d be having a (justifiable) fit. Why carve out an exception for any preferred religion?

The kids are too young and there was no parental knowledge or consent. The so-called Christians who did this should be ashamed of themselves.

Yeah, but would the teacher, principle and superintendent?

Actually, if the playing field was even i.e. Christian kids could talk about Christmas at Christmas times, I really wouldn't have a fit about the Islamic kids, or Jewish kids explaining Passover etc.

If fact, I remember Jewish kids talking about Passover in my elementary school. I thought it was a good thing.

Don’t let the facts get in the way of martyrdom. And yet you ignore the ONE fact that I cited. Don't let READING the comments of others interfere with continuing to post your Anti-Christian diatribes. Some things in this case may be protected and some may not. I copied ONE incident. Children being prohibited from writing "Merry Christmas" on CHRISTMAS CARDS sent to troops overseas. You ignored it, refused to respond on point, and accused me of martyrdom. Then accused the parents of only being "so-called" Christians. NEWS FLASH: I'm not a Christian. NEWS FLASH #2: Even IF all the events you claim (from a source not in evidence here) happened as you claim they happened, it would show such parents to be "good", devout Christians. But you wouldn't know that because your obvious Anti-Christian bias will not allow you to find out what it means to be a "good" Christian, because you THINK (wrongly) you already know.
