The Bible isnt fiction. Just my opinion though so as not to hurt anyones feelings. I sure hope the kid wasnt pushing this stuff to others. Christians must keep stuff quiet and secluded as not to cause problems.

 

Classic example of what I was talking about in the "camel" thread.

Let them read whatever fiction they want to read during free time. Bible, Koran , Huckleberry Finn, Martian Chronicles... Reading is good.

Theory of Evolution, etc. I agree.

Let me say, that I don't agree with not allowing the child to read the bible (or whatever he chooses to read) during the free time. And while I don't think it's all, or even the majority of Christians, you can't deny that there is a group that just isn't very tolerant and take any accommodation to another belief as a grave affront to Christianity, and are very vocal about it. You hear it on these boards here all the time. You even mention "bending over backwards" to accommodate. How have you bent over backwards, or gone out of your way to do accommodate. In reality, I'm betting you (and not just you, but most of us) haven't had to do much, if anything at all, except exercise a little tolerance.

 

I'm fairly confident, that a Muslim student in the same situation, would have been treated the same way at that particular school.

 

 

If there wasnt so many " accommadations" going on you wouldnt hear about on a weekly basis . Christian are not making stuff up , they are just tired of being the doormat of all religions -- led by our Muslim loving president .

And Yes , fiction , non fiction , whatever , free means free . And fire that lazy teacher. Oops forgot , have to do a bunch more than that to fire a teacher.

It's clearly something you are sensitive about.

I am, I agree.

Please don't tell me you think evolution is fiction. I'm certain there are some out in the "hollars" of eastern ky that subscribe to such nonsense but surely not anyone on this website. Is the Earth flat too?
