Nice post Polybius....I've been following this asinine situation for a few days now....you are one of the few to recognize that the little girl is what matters most. Who cares what her mothers job involves..this little girl belongs in church, and anyone who things otherwise, is simply wrong...

Actually, "her mother's job" matters more than what school she is in. It is the current mentality in our culture that the school, be it private or public, is the place where children learn values and behavior in preparation for adult life, but the reality is children will emulate their parents far more than they will any teacher. It's human nature. Perhaps this religious school understands all their good teaching would be for naught if the girl has a slut for a mother, and maybe trying to use tough love to get this woman on a brighter path was in the best interest of the little girl. And if she chooses to continue to strip, there are plenty of other private schools that will accept her child in our free society. But this denominational school should not be condemned for having standards that both protect and elevate ALL their students and parents.

SCRIPTURE says that GOD will no longer allow the children to be punished for the sins of the parents.. but that every man would bear his own responsibility for what he or she does.
In fact, God got kinda torqued at the perjorative riddle of the common folks... "The father bit the lemon, but the childs teeth have been set on edge (grimace at the sour taste)." God said... "I am going to put an end to THIS particularly offensive proverb about ME..."
Religions seem to take great pleasure in choosing to emphasize professional "gnat straining" (what mom does to raise money... and I guarantee you the ahem "christian men" in the congregation are familiar with her work!!!), while carrying on the age old orgy of "camel swallowing", (kicking the daughter OUT of an allegedly GODLY and MORAL environment, avoiding that damned 'suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them NOT' clause, spoken by the MASTER of heaven and earth). But hey, who listens to Jesus in the Church today? Priests, Pastors, so-called Christian Leaders? Jesus said forbid them not... but what does HE know?
He must not have known there would be strippers in our day and age, when he uttered those archaic instructions. Funny but the pharisees didn't like his instructions then either. Seems those guys are around in every generation. PUKE.
I am convinced that some of the ladies in this particular church got her kid thrown out, after HUBBIES went to see said "stripper mommie" perform on stage.
... hypocrites.
