[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Should have the pledge of allegiance right next to it. [/quote]

And the American flag. Maybe several flags.

The kids need to know that being American means being Christian.

^ in case anyone was still confused about whether the MAGAs want to impose their religion on you.[/quote]

No, that was posted by an anti-theist.

The anti-theists don’t like the American flag. They don’t like the pledge of allegiance. The anti-theist who posted this says she’s a teacher in a red state who stays seated during the pledge with her mouth shut.[/quote]

Oh go scratch something.  I love the flag.  More than you do, because I love what it stands for and not the object.  It sets a sky-high constitutional ideal that it is our job to try and live up to.  [color=red]And it has nothing to do with government mandated bronze-age myth worship as expressly forbidden by our constitution [/color](yeah I love that too).

The constitution doesn’t forbid any religion. It doesn’t allow the government to [i]establish[/i] a state religion.

No religion or religious practice is forbidden in the United States. [/quote]

You've got to be kidding me.

Government mandating a poster of a religion-specific bronze-age myth is exactly establishing a state religion.  This isn't just my opinion, this has been determined by the courts many times, in addition to it being logical to anyone with 2 brain cells and an honest disposition.[/quote]

I am sure LA will have their law struck down. I am just not a hater like you are. I think everyone should be represented in schools, including Christians. Everyone is important and welcome. [/quote]

So all 7,000 religions should get their own air time on the walls of each classroom? Sounds fking idiotic.[/quote]

I mean it just seems to me like endorsing one specifically and putting up the fundamental tenets of the religion on the wall is an attempt at indoctrination, but that’s just me. I’m just a stupid agnostic. What do I know?[/quote]
