But Laci, it IS for my teeth!
Bibles in public high schools! Oh noes!
So my lovely young friend Sam just updated her Facebooks with this lovely news:
Frankly, it really upset me that they handed out Bibles at school today. The man I was by kept saying that it was the only book that would last you forever. What about the Torah? The Quran? Whatever else you believe in? I think anyone should be able to believe in what they want, and find it extremely rude that a church would come and try to shove it’s religion down other people’s throats.
I let her know about public schools (she’s at a public school, did she leave that out?) and the separation of church and state, and how only having bibles was clear religious favoritism, and that neither had any business in her school or in this country. I told her to get the hell in touch with the administration, and to be vocal above all!
I’m a huge atheist buzzkill, but I really have no problem with religion as long as it doesn’t hinder scientific advancement and the personal freedoms of others. Regrettably (but unfortunately not shockingly), these seem to conflict rather often. See Sam’s status above for an example. This ain’t right. Shame, teacher person! You are supposed to be shaping young minds with logic and creativity, not forcing them into the rigid and small confines of your personal scripture by allowing preaching in the classroom.
