Getting back to the point I tried to make in my earlier post, the professor
wasn't demanding that her church teach his beliefs, why do christians
insist on having schools teach about theirs?


Because they are forced to pay for those schools and are getting
ripped off if they then cannot have their desired content therein
represented. That's why public funding for schools is such an
abyss - it is impossible to have any single institution represent
the ideas and values of a society as diverse as ours fairly - there
isn't enough time in the day.



Howdy,

You seem to suggest above that those who do not choose to
participate in the activities of religious institutions do
not have to pay for the activities of those institutions.

Does not the tax exempt status of those institutions point
to the opposite conclusion?


You betcha, and I oppose that too with same vigor I do public
schooling...


All the best,
