[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have thought about this a while, and I do agree with OP that this is BS. A religious institution can do whatever it wants. I have no problem with people who choose to practice Islam, and find it to be far less objectionable than Christianity. But a school should not be doing a field trip to a religious institution that requires girls to conform to BS gender discrimination practiced by that religion. That's wrong. [/quote] I don't see how ignorance is to her advantage. All the other children will be having an educational experience and will leave the trip more informed while the kids that skip it are deprived. Even if the education they receive includes information about how religions treat men and women differently...that is important to understand even if you reject those teachings. Ignorance is never advantageous.[/quote]
