Stop. Kids aren’t not allowed to read the Bible at school. They’re just not forced to. There’s a difference.
They are removing Bibles from the library. Even back in my day when we all recited the Lord's prayer in school, they would never have allowed us to read Bibles in class, as we were being taught regular schools subjects.
Implement seminary like the Mormons do in Utah. Not hard.
Kids are already coming out of school ignorant. If they're taken out of class 3 or 4 more hours a week, they won't even be qualified to say "Fries with that?"
And it's still in school, unless you plan on driving kids all over the county to get to their churches.
Utah’s education does ok.
Going off topic from religion, I 100% agree with the idea that a lot of schools today aren't doing even a halfway decent job educating our kids, and much of their time is being frittered away on nonsense.
Some have been stopped, they also have been stopped praying over their meals.
And pretty sure when that’s happened it’s turned into big news stories and lawsuits have been filed and people al have been fired. I agree the school system has moved massively in the wrong direction but I definitely feel like people have woken up and we’re starting to win those battles.
Where? How exactly can you stop anyone from praying? You can pray silently any time you wish.
I'm not aware of anything in the Bible saying that prayers must be said aloud. In fact, I'm quite certain there's something in the Bible about not making a big fuss while you pray, instead you're told to do so quietly.
I would really like to know what exactly happened at these schools where the admin has stopped anyone from praying over their own meals and such.
Edited to add: I found the Bible verses I was talking about.
Matthew 6; 5-6 “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you."
Mostly that's how I do, but some people are obvious that they are praying. Holding up your hands and looking up can be a good indicator. Prayer hands is a giveaway, or head bowed, eyes closed, hands on lap, sometimes lips moving with no sound.
Uh huh.
