I said that you religious wingnuts are so obsessed with your beliefs that you stop at nothing to push your beliefs on children while they are in public school
I as sure you will want to back up any occasion that I have pushed my religious beliefs on another person.

You might start with letting everyone know what my religious belief is- so far, according to the NotBots that frequent this forum, I am Jewish or Muslim, or Catholic or absolutely a Jehovah's Witness or a Christian Fundamentalist.

Hard to keep track, especially when some of the NotBots assert that I am members of two religions at the same time.

Oh, I guess I forgot: Satanist.

How about this one from about two weeks ago:
One complaint.

80 million students

100,000 public schools.

Happens all the time...

COUGH.

Meanwhile, in the UK: their law REQUIRES DAILY COLLECTIVE WORSHIP.

Yes, we covered that when you say "all the time" it means to you you may remember that it happened over some period of time since the 1960s
Actually you claimed that 'all the time' means frequently.

Not at all. I clearly reminded you that the colloquial expression of 'all the time' was not a statistical claim. You are the delusional one.

I chose not to. Whether I could or nor remains to be determined.

No, collective meetings happen every day in the UK. Those that choose to use the time to worship do so. Those that choose to not worship, do not. Seriously, are you this daft?

If you are afraid to state your beliefs then you will have to live with the assumptions. Rather juvenile in my book.

And so far out of over 80 million students attending public school this year in the USA, you have found ONE case of one school reading a prayer in a public assembly.

One out of 80 million = not frequent.

And I said you were full of sh!t.

Another colloquial expression applied to person such as yourself who run their mouth but can't back it up.

Apples to apples: the UK requires DAILY collect worship from millions of its school students... and out of 80 million students here, you say it happens "frequently" and have come up with one case.

Collective worship is required by law.

What part of "required by law" is it that you don't understand?

Apples to apples: you ONE case of a student who objects (rightly) to this public prayer: he could just excuse himself from the prayer and stand in the hall, could he not?

And this is a once a year thing.

So you have no problem with f undies requiring daily prayer as long as those who chose to not worship do not have to worship?

Dope: when I went to school, it was "required" except those who did not want to participate- after the parents went and and objected- had to put their heads down on the desk and ignore the public prayer.

And if you were part of the public prayer you had to close your eyes or you'd get smacked in the forehead with the blackboard pointer.

No, there are many more. But, as I pointed out earlier, this is not a claim like 'my friend is a magical sky pixie'. All you need to do is google it. Why should I do that for you?

So, when the muslims demand you face east and praise Allah 5 times a day, you are happy to cling to majority rule and pay the consequences?

So your argument is that when your constitutional rights are violated, you should 'take it like a man' and let it go? Got it.

Back it up.

There are 80- million students who do not have religion pushed in their face like it is in the UK- WHERE COLLECTIVE WORSHIP IS REQUIRED BY LAW- where millions have in thrust in their face EVERY DAY.

Apples to apples.

PS: ALL THE TIME.

Follow the thread, Dumphuqe.

You are the one who is saying the COLLECTIVE WORSHIP REQUIRED BY LAW in the UK is no big deal.

Yes: the USA has a CONSTITUTION which prevents this.

HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH!

I do believe I have mentioned this at least fifty times.

PS: You will note the EXACT QUOTE of the UK law (posted more than once) doesn't cover thousands of religious 'belief', it demands the worship be wholly or mainly of a Christian character.

Daily Horoscope for May 23

Leo

You're in a very idealistic mood today, making it almost impossible for you to view loved ones in their true colors. If they've got any faults you won't see them because you'll have blanked them out. This rosy vision of your nearest and dearest is fine if it doesn't last long but it will cause problems if it persists and you continue to brush any problems under the carpet.
