Liberal School Administrators Ban Jesus

because there was an increase.

Not what was promised.

Not even close to what was promised.

And it was eaten up by inflation anyway.

You all promised wage increases of $4,000 - $9,000.

So you broke your promise.

Not surprising in the least.

Schools are Learning Centers, it's not a place were we want to indoctrinate our children into a religious cult. You can do that to YOUR kids at YOUR house.

Singing Christmas songs is not indoctrination. Exposing people to people, cultures and customs different from their own is the hallmark of education. Having to learn and sing Frere Jacques didn't magically make me French.

" The upcoming concert will be a “Winter Concert.” "
Why would you need to insert 'Jesus' into a Winter Concert?

I'm guessing you would be FIRST to object if there was a song about Allah and/or the Prophet Mohammad, the Most Merciful.

The "most merciful"?


Tell that to the gays thrown from roofs or women stoned to death for adultery.

When are Republicans going to ever understand that Public Schools are not religious academies, and that public schools are not CHURCH?

Probably never- because they are zealous idiots, clerics, and clergymen trying to force their religion off on everyone else- WHICH IS AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION! LOL!

[Old Trapper]

100% understand those are not things to be do through government force.

If the government sanctions it, and the majority approve, then it becomes the governments role.

It is not the duty of the government to give preferential treatment to one segment of society over another e.g tax cuts for the wealthy at the expense of the poor.

did you have Christmas parties when you were in school>? Christmas vacation? Christmas concerts? Did it damage you?

Ah but indoctrinating them to be good little socialists. Schools are no longer anything but indoctrination centers with colleges being the apex predator upon young mind full of mush

Thank you for your deep insight into what is occurring.

Religion has no place in the public space.

Put it back in the closet.

You think if Jesus ever came back to earth, he'd want to see a fucking cross?

Jesus wasn't born in December.

Many people celebrate Christmas as a holiday that celebrates the spirit of giving and bringing family together. It doesn't mean people either believe- or disbelieve in the birth of Christ!

It just means they want to celebrate the "spirit of giving" and "Bringing family together" Christmas now represents to everyone- religious or not!

Now, having that said, does that damage you in any way?

'Christmas' is a celebration of one of the religious cults. That should be performed by that particular group. Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, etc. don't want their kids to rejoice over some foreign religious event. Most of the religious cults own property and buildings, they could do all that over there on there property and not try to force it on others. Try to have respect for others, it's just common sense.

Christmas is a pagan holiday and has nothing to do with Jesus.

Virginia School Bans Jesus


In the name of that most virtuous yet, ironically-labeled left-wing moral imperative of “diversity,” Robious Middle School has banned certain Christmas songs from being performed by the school’s chorus: those about Jesus.

The Christian snowflakes needn't have a meltdown over this. They can carol to their heart's delight outside of school, choosing whatever songs they like. But having a winter concert with songs only for one religion is problematic for a public school, since it implies a preference for that faith. In theory, you can avoid that implication if you open the concert up to a lot of different religion's songs (e.g., Hannukuh songs, and so on), but then you still would want to make sure you aren't giving more time or prominence to one over others, or leaving anyone out. So, it's easier just to keep to secular songs.

[Micawber]

it doesn't say should either. theocracy is horseshit.

so dems are all theocrats now. cool.

Straw man argument. I said show me a biblical exegesis that says Christianity has no application in government.
I did not say Christianity had any truth or power whatsoever. But if being told by a chessmaster to play chess,
and I have to remind him of his own rules, I will.

Christians are commanded to do good, charity, love, heal etc. It does not say you get a pass to be an evil selfish prick when it's government.
Not my game, not my rules, but I can read.
