This is retarded... Christian churches aren't allowed to go into a school and preach and "inform" the children about God and if they threatened a hate crime they would get laughed at. If it really was presentation on culture and ethics then yeah, that's fine, but this is CAIR we're talking about, they always have an agenda. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

 Do they ignore parts of reality? Group: Moderators Posts: 2,935 Joined: 23-February 06 From: South Overton!!! Member No.: 46 |
I am agnostic and I'm against this presentation because there needs to be uniformity in the way separation of church and state is interpreted. Don't allow members of a group that has an obvious slant and agenda to lecture on a religious subject whether they be Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Buddhist, etc. I have no problem with religion being taught in social studies or other courses as long as it is relevant to the subject. Then again I was not at the lecture personally so i don't know to what extent they may have overstepped their "bounds".
-------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

QUOTE (Aaron @ Jun 9 2008, 10:10 PM)  Psh, agnostic. Shit or get off the pot, man! Hahaha Actually though I grow tired of fanatics on both sides of the issue. A higher power, force, god, etc is plausible but maybe the universe is a cruel accidental joke. I believe that if there is a higher power it is impossible to define with religion. -------------------- A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this?
