And I have no problem with teaching the history of religions. In fact you can't teach history without talking about the impact of religion in shaping the modern world. Just don't teach any of them as "the true religion"
This is a perfect example of the problems we have with a few specific issues.
Homosexuality is NOT a religious issue.
OPPOSITION to homosexuality is a religious issue.
Too many Christians believe that NOT having rules based on their religious beliefs is discrimination against them. The fact is we shouldn't have laws based on ANY religion. We can't let a religious belief (opposition to homosexuality) control the rules of a public school.
I learned the history of religion in school, but I wasn’t goin to church in school.
The left complains about organized prayer in school or organized religion in school. And when the right complains they are only complaining about Christianity. Because they don’t want Islam taught in school and they don’t want students breaking out prayer mats and facing Mecca to prayer or allowing Scientologist to conduct audits on their kids or Satanist equal time or a coven of Wiccans
That’s a disingenuous argument at best.
