Putting God back into schools.

[Ninurta]

While religion certainly is a compass and tool for moral, I see the problem sit's elsewhere.

All the time I read how shitty school systems are, especially in the US. How they indoctrinate your children with CRT and gender stuff. Now the same people seem to cry for more indoctrination?

Not indoctrination, more along the lines of education. In the US, it is illegal, banned by the First Amendment, for kids to be led to any particular religion in a public, government, school. They can be taught about various religions (as part of a comparative sociology curriculum, for example), but no one of them may be endorsed by the school or teachers as "the" religion.

Personally, I think all elementary and high schools should be limited to teaching ONLY reading, writing, and arithmetic. anything beyond those - religions for example, languages and art for a couple more examples - should be restricted to collegiate institutions, when the child is old enough to pick elective courses, and AFTER they have learned the survival basics listed above. I also believe sports should be banned from schools - it has no bearing on a basic education.

But that's just my opinion.

With that said, I don't believe God has ever been kicked out of any schools. they still have exams, don't they? I've never taken an exam that didn't have a bunch of fervent praying just beforehand by a great many students!

The pledge of allegiance used to be recited every morning in schools, back when I was a student, for example, but I believe has since been removed because it has a line that says "one nation, under God". it does not specify WHICH god, so that is up to the individual's interpretation and doesn't constitute a governmental endorsement of any particular god, but still some rabid folk, fearful of any gods, raised a ruckus and had it removed. Yes, "fearful" - if they did not believe in SOME god, there would be no basis for fear, and therefore no basis for their objections. it would just be another formulaic pronouncement to them, without meaning, and therefore with no reason to so strenuously object to it.
