foeofthelance Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 http://uk.news.yahoo.com/pressass/20080704...ed-6323e80.html Now, I've got no problem with education about other cultures, but I think this is perhaps taking things a little too far, no?

shinigamiinochi Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 0.o When I had to go through confimation, I had to go to a temple and take part in the service, but even then I wasn't forced to pray, just watch. That's taking things a bit too far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avarion Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Religious sensitivity and tolerance has been stretched way too far. I find this incident deplorable because of the teacher's blatant disregard for individual choice and autonomy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Agaib Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Its people like these that make people like Me who advocate sensitivity to other cultures look like idiots. The cause of cultural sensitivity its in no way advanced by these idiots. I oppose all officially recognized prayer in schools regardless (with the small exception of religious clubs). It doesn't matter if its to Allah or to the Christian God. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
