[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah this is the equivalent of prop 65 warnings for hazardous substances that appear on everything in California. Thanks Youngkin![/quote] Worst moronic governor in Virginia’s history [/quote] Yeah because giving a heads up to parents about what their kids might be assigned to read is sooo dumb. But then people like you complain when parents are disconnected. Which is it?[/quote] It is dumb. Schools are in charge of educating our children, not parents. Parents should stay in their lane and leave education to the professionals. If left to their own devices, parents would indoctrinate their children in weird fantasies and superstitions like some zombie from 2,000 years ago died for their sins and is their savior.[/quote] Wrong on so many levels. You should not be allowed anywhere near a school based on your lack of basic understanding of rights in the US. The first amendment of the Constitution of the United States guarantees [b][i]First Amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.[/i][/b] The Constitution of Virginia goes further in protecting religious rights: [i] "Article I. Bill of Rights Section 16. Free exercise of religion; no establishment of religion That religion or the duty which we owe to our Creator, and the manner of discharging it, can be directed only by reason and conviction, not by force or violence; and, therefore, [b]all men are equally entitled to the free exercise of religion, according to the dictates of conscience; and that it is the mutual duty of all to practice Christian forbearance, love, and charity towards each other. No man shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place, or ministry whatsoever, nor shall be enforced, restrained, molested, or burthened in his body or goods, nor shall otherwise suffer on account of his religious opinions or belief; but all men shall be free to profess and by argument to maintain their opinions in matters of religion, and the same shall in nowise diminish, enlarge, or affect their civil capacities. [/b]And the General Assembly shall not prescribe any religious test whatever, or confer any peculiar privileges or advantages on any sect or denomination, or pass any law requiring or authorizing any religious society, or the people of any district within this Commonwealth, to levy on themselves or others, any tax for the erection or repair of any house of public worship, or for the support of any church or ministry; but[b] it shall be left free to every person to select his religious instructor, and to make for his support such private contract as he shall please[/b]." [/i] The Virginia code 1-240.1 protects parents rights to direct their kids' education by clearly and simply stating: [b][i]A parent has a fundamental right to make decisions concerning the upbringing, education, and care of the parent's child.[/i][/b] If you don't understand basic human rights on religion and parenting enshrined in the US Constitution, the Virginia Constitution and the Virginia Code, then you should not be part of any curriculum decisions or education policy.[/quote]
