"Perhaps a better word was religion. Doesn't belong in public schools."

But the atheist/marxist religion does?

All we have done is replace one with the other.

Seen what is going on in the public schools lately?
Or even worse in the universities? Our nation is loosing it.
You don't even get a decent education anymore.
Especially in the engineering and sciences.
Mostly you get leftist indoctrination.
And your afraid of religion?
Wait till you see what they (the left) are replacing it with.

If my poor grandmother were alive today she would die of a
stroke at the sight of it.

This is progress?

Looks more like the fall of Rome to me.

Where did she say anything about an athiest/marxist religion?

[cajungirl]

atheism and Marxism have nothing to do with the teaching of sciences in the universities.

If your view of the culture "falling apart" were true, the answer is not to infuse religion into the schools and government.

There is ample reason to be afraid of religion in government and schools.

That is why there are private religious schools, churches, families, synagogues, etc.

And I do not think there is leftist indoctrination of engineering and science students.

Cultural changes happen. We don't need a Taliban or its equivalent here. I do believe the rise of Islamic fundamentalism was fueled by fear of western decadence. The rise of religious fundamentalism in this country I do think is fueled by the same fears of decadence.
