But what's the difference between what you're saying and the government trying to force CRT and sexual identity onto our youth? Why is one acceptable and the other not? The bottom line is, that the goal of removing religion from schools was to prevent indoctrination and forcing a belief system. Isn't what I mentioned doing the same thing?
I just don't see how CRT is the direct opposite of Christianity. That smacks of the modern GOP commodotizing Christianity and selling it to people with infomercial style "to cure all that ails you" aplomb.
But again, I know how it feels to be forced to pray and recite and at least pretend you believe. It wasn't awful, but it, combined with smarmy politicians figuring I simply had to follow their side because "Jesus" is what burned me out on organized religion. Of course I went to college so that shift will be blamed on college professors forcing me to be a socialist and undoing sister Mary forcing me to be conservative. I'm just a brain ready to be washed, I guess.
Conservatives talk about how the heavy hand of the government wrecks everything but think stuff like this will successfully sell the brand of christianity to people? Seems more like pandering to people way past their school years who think this is just what the country needs.
And I know people who share the notion that public schools are forcing agendas on kids...they send their kids to private schools or home school them. The extra work and sacrifice required for that should benefit them and their kids as well, or so I've been told.
