Well, FROG, what would you change? Do you think the schools should teach a certain religion as part of the curriculum?

Well, if parents want their children to know the creation story of their religion, they should take them to church. I don't see why it's the obligation of the state to preach Bible stories to kids.

And how do they teach that?

They don't teach us we're free to do whatever we want, they teach us to "respect others" "keep your hands and feet to yourself" "share with others" and so forth. They just leave any extra religious morals (like "praise Allah" or "meditate every day") beyond these basic ones to the parents, and I think that's a good thing--I wouldn't want the government teaching my kids what religious morals to follow, would you? I want my kids to follow my religious morals, not the government's.

I think what religious people are quick to forget is the idea of freedom which our country was founded upon. We don't need the government to do everything for us.

As far as creation goes....all schools teach is the science. If kids want to beleive that God caused evolution they're free to do so, but we can't NOT teach kids science every time it contradicts a religious belief...otherwise science would NEVER get taught! :lol:

Who's creation do you teach?
I'm willing to bet it wont be my cultures...

my faith says that North America sits on the back of a giant turtle... should that be taught in school as science?

I mean... equil time and all right?

They should teach the Christian religion, call me what you want but his county is a Christian nation and when they said "an establishment of religion" they meant not to teach one denominations Christian beliefs over another’s.

And they teach evolution, why didn't you guys respond to that?

Evolution is not a religious belief. It is a scientific theory that is the basis of modern studies of life. Scientific theories, regardless of how they relate to religion, should be taught in school.

FROG no offense but you sound a lot like all those Muslims in the Middle East who have established theocracies in which people have little or no freedom.

Oh please, you're delusional. This is not a Christian nation anymore than it is a Muslim nation or a Buddhist nation. :roll:
