"Hurr it's Freedom FROM Religion, not Freedom OF Religion Durr!" These group of people piss me off more than the deranged fundamentalists. So you're going to tell me it's perfectly acceptable that if a child wishes to have a day off for their religious beliefs, their grades must suffer and should be punished because the people who made up the schedule believe that his beliefs are a fairy tale? That's discrimination based on religious views, and therefore unconstitutional. Try again. I'm sorry to burst the bubble of these opposing side radicals, but Religion will never be pushed to the end where they have to meet up in the woods at random (Because they want to outlaw it wherever there's a breathing non-religous person walking) and practice their beliefs under a full moon so you can scream and yell "See?! They really are witch doctors who believe in dark magic and practice sorcery under the full moon!" 2/10 made me reply, apply yourself I'm not even religious.

  • Well thanks for going full retard m80. Never did I say discriminate, merely ignore. A child's religious views are fairly irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. And no where did we say outlaw religion, read m8, dont assume shit. You just make an ass out of yourself

  • [quote]A child's religious views are fairly irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. [/quote] Not just A child, it's a HUGE number of children that you are now considering irrelevant because you specifically don't believe in their faith. [quote]And no where did we say outlaw religion, read m8, dont assume shit. You just make an ass out of yourself. [/quote] I never once in my post called out YOU specifically on this, but if you're going to deny you sit with that camp of people you are out of touch with your own beliefs.

  • Again, the children are not irrelevant, their religious views are. Those views are the parents views, and the children should embrace the fact that the world doesnt give a -blam!-

  • [quote]Again, the children are not irrelevant, their religious views are. [/quote] "You're grades are being punished not because you're irrelevant, your views just are." Like that's going to blow over real nicely. [quote]Those views are the parents views, and the children should embrace the fact that the world doesnt give a -blam!- [/quote] I can't believe I fell for obvious bait up until this point.

  • No bait here. They are not being punished. They shouldn't take days off to begin with

  • [quote]They are not being punished. [/quote] >Child takes day off to observe their own religious holiday >They miss a school day and the possibility of a grade >They're told to get over it and they have to choose between their grade or religion That's punishment for choosing their faith over school, which is discrimination. Unconstitutional. [quote]They shouldn't take days off to begin with. [/quote] Now you're just moving goal posts. This is bait.

  • You are not understanding. Religious observances are INSIGNIFICANT. Schooling on the other hand, is very important to developing society and a functioning economy. At the end of the day, religious practices do not benefit society as a whole

  • [quote]Religious observances are INSIGNIFICANT. [/quote] What YOU fail to understand is that religious observances are insignificant to YOU, this is simply an OPINION, a SUBJECTIVE VIEW. When you are mapping out a plan for school you take into consideration of religious observances because religious groups DO make up your community and contribute to society. NEVER has a religious observance ever caused problems in the schooling of children, the only reason one would throw a fit over it is because they have this spiteful nature against it. [quote]At the end of the day, religious practices do not benefit society as a whole. [/quote] At the end of the day, they don't hinder society in any form.

  • They are not important to me, but they are also not important to society as a whole. They are disruptive and only fuel conflict between different religions

  • [quote]They are not important to me, but they are also not important to society as a whole. [/quote] They are important to people who make up societies. [quote]They are disruptive and only fuel conflict between different religions[/quote] [CITATION NEEDED} Clearly a growing issue in our schools is the number of religious-initiated fights that break out during class hours. Because if there's one thing the US is known for, it's the religious conflict that happens in our local towns and schools.
