[Protagoras]

My parents taught me that I could always opt out of anything that went against what I knew to be right. If the teacher did not agree I was to ask for her to call my parents.

Your parents gave you good advice. I'm glad you were strong enough to know when and if to do it.

Most little children don't understand that they are being indoctrinated.

This child could be taught the same thing. Instead she is being taught that if she does not want to do something she not only does not have to do it but she can prevent every one else from doing it too by force.

Hmmm,, different viewpoint than the father has. He thinks that his child is being forced to recite something she has been told is wrong. He sees the force from a different angle.

The correct solution is to abolish government schools and complusary education.

My personal view is that God probably doesn't want people to praise him at the point of a gun.

SHE WAS NOT BEING FORCED TO SAY IT!

Sorry for shouting but that is the whole point. She was not being forced to say it she was not even being asked to stay in the room while others said it. This mans beef is that it is being said at all.

That is not acceptable.
