[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have perfect reasoning ability. You all are clueless.

I am not writing in links so the links can prove my point, but to make the point that all the links you send are meaningless, because all the sources you bring up also have written articles making my point.

You can be selective about the words you use, and pretend that you are using something secularly. It is still the wrong place for it. You think you’re being cool by adapting these behaviors, and don’t take a minute to think for a second of what they mean. You are the same people who are tearing down statues because their origins are linked to slavery, but refuse to look at the roots of meditation because it makes you think you are hip with your expense yoga pants.

You are just empty heads. [/quote]

Are you an atheist? What are your positions on kids reciting the Pledge of Allegiance with the words “under God “?  Do you believe in this national prayer day in the schools? Most of the people I’ve known who oppose meditation schools are conservative Christians who just don’t want “that religion “in their schools. Even though it’s not a religion.[/quote]

It doesn’t matter who I am for my point to be valid.

Regardless of whether I am an atheist or conservative Christian, Muslim, Jewish, or satanist, it doesn’t make my point less valid.

Anything that includes the word God has an explicit choice for opt out, and it is not served in disguise.

If they want to calm kids down they can let them breathe fresh air with a longer recess, not practice meditation in a stuffy classroom.

Ps. You are correct in that meditation is not a religion. It is a religious practice, like prayer, which also is a religious practice. [/quote]

For the immense majority of people, meditation is NOT a religious practice.
