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.


Please tell us if you are equally exercised over the Pledge of Allegiance, Halloween, Valentine’s Day and Christmas, Hanukkah or Easter images or words in school.

All of these have more direct links to religion than meditation.

I’m guessing you’re just an-Asian, though. Seems to be a trend these days, because Covid and Trump made that a little more acceptable.

Valentine's Day is a great example of something that used to be religious in nature but is now secularized. See also: Sunday.


Valentine’s Day is another religious concept used to make love homogeneous.

The difference is that the guidance counselor is not teaching your kids to participate in Valentine’s Day, and it’s not part of the school lessons.

DP. To be more clear, an inability to communicate your argument in your own words is almost always secondary to either not understanding what you are trying to say, or just not having a coherent argument.


DP. I like to apply the Michael Scott “explain it to me like I’m five” test. If you can’t do that, you don’t truly understand what you’re talking about.

OP, it’s sad you don’t have the reasoning ability and cognitive skills to understand the difference between meditation and Buddhism.

No we ban HP b/c the author is a bigot.


And here we have yet another product of our failing schools, incapable of logic and reason and seemingly unaware that words have meaning. But yes, let’s focus on mediation, religion, and Harry Potter.

What is the difference from your link to this? Or is your link better because it comes from a British woman? They are speaking exactly the same words.

The difference is that yours is Tibetan Buddhist meditation practice which is not used for kids in schools. I know this because I teach and have to follow very strict rules to ensure any breathing techniques taught are secular in nature. We do not use the word spirit, spiritual, om, namaste or anything else that would ruffle your panties.
