Liberals , Do You Believe Public Schools Should Teach Creationism . . . Or Magic ?
Public Schools in California are mandated to teach Islam to 7th graders .
The Lord Jesus taught Love, while also admonishing Evil .

Do you believe in magic?
In a young girls heart
How the music can free her
whenever it starts
And it’s magic
if the music is groovy
It makes you feel happy like an old time movie
I’ll tell ya about the magic
It’ll free your soul
but it’s like trying to tell a stranger ’bout rock n roll
If you believe in magic, don’t bother to choose
If it’s jug band music or rhythm and blues
Just go and listen
It’ll start with a smile
It won’t wipe off your face no matter how hard you try
Your feet start tapping
And you can’t seem to find
How you got there
So just blow your mind……………uhm,
I’ll take Jesus for 1000 Earnest!
Teachers should just TEACH and stop indoctrinating our children with political ideology from either side of the coin.
You inow the libs were found “smokin in the boys room” jamming to Black Sabbeth & Judas Priest , and only care that nothing too difficult is taught in school
Only in a theology class. It has no place in science.
billyking: I remember that, my grandparents lost their entire life savings to it, and my parents a good portion of theirs.
Dear Mr. McCartney,
Stop that! Please stop singing or I’ll bonk you over the head with your ex-wife’s leg. F’tang, f’tang.
What ever happened to freedom of religion? Oh that’s right the whole separation of church and state thing that was misquoted and distorted from Thomas Jefferson’s letter. That’s right, it’s now freedom from religion.
Yup, Bibles where textbooks back then. Oh, and church services were held in the White House. Good separation lol.
The shouldn’t be teaching any religion in public school. That’s why there’s Sunday school.
Creationism is a religious view point and shouldn’t be taught either.
Claire: Good Point
Separation of Church and State is only an INTERPRETATION of the constitution; I promise you, it is nowhere in there!
But to answer the question, I personally believe in God the Son, Father, and Holy Spirit, in terms of where I came from. However, I do not think that it is my right to impose this beleif upon anyone else, most especially upon someone elses child in the public school system.
It seems as though the only true solution to all of this is to not teach ANY theory of where humans came from. I mean, go ahead and explain the evolutionist theory for everything else, but just not humans.
And when students begin to question when humans came to earth, treat it just like any other personal-religious question!
“I CANT EXPLAIN THAT TO YOU BECAUSE IT IS BASED UPON YOUR PERSONAL AND FAMILIAL BELIEF SYSTEM.”
Schools should teach all theories about the origin of life and encourage the students to study, research, think and make up their own minds.
I’m not sure where one leads to the other.
The Islamic lessons are part of the mandated curriculum regarding world religion. I provided a link to some of the lessons.
Creationism can be taught alongside evolution as long is it objectively and allows the child to decide for themselves.
Neither. I condone fact.
The Lady Jesus taught shame and self-depreciation.
Hence all the wars caused by religion.
Islam today is what Xtianity USED TO BE before the Realist Enlightenment.
Science should be taught in public schools. No religion should be taught unless it is in a course on religion.
No, they shouldn’t.
They shouldn’t teach religion either. Unless you’re talking about teaching the children that there are a myriad of different religions in the world like Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, etc.
But I imagine you are using this in an inflammatory manner, telling half the truth to twist people’s perspective. Isn’t that what the Nazi’s did?
Well my thoughts are this…
A school is about education. All education, not just the parts that suit us. So all Theories, no matter how insane should be atleast touched upon. I discuss these things with my children, I give my ideas, and let them form their own.
A child cannot have too much education, no matter what other people may say. Even the best lies are based on truth, so why not give them a chance to be as intelligent as possible. If people never got out of their bubbles and learned about others idea, this country would not have been as successful as it has been. Thats how we infiltrate armys, other countries, keep relations with other parts of the world, and increase our own wealth and power.
So I want my kids to learn it all.
There should be NO teaching of ANY religious beliefs in ANY PUBLIC SCHOOL!!! Hence the reason for the Separation of Church and State.
If you want your children to believe in a different way of explaining how humans came to be….pay for a private or religious school.
Your religion, my religion, and everyone elses’ religion is a personal and private matter.
The only one I need to explain my beliefs to is God, himself.
You are typical of many PHDs, lots of book smarts but very little Common sense. I tutor homeless children in Los Angeles and the schools are NOT teaching Islam in the hopes of encouraging students to convert to it. They are teaching them about the basic beliefs of this faith just as they do Catholicism, Mormonism, etc.
Magic would be great. We could set up schools that look like the ones on Harry Potter. It would be a wonderful world.
Good luck!
I Agree 100%. I also think the public schhols need to teach all religions – but on topic of islam and current events i think they need to also teach about magic/propoganda. Then maybe at least our children will not believe everything they see on the news.
i think we should teach jesus was a “air-floater” like mohammad. Its more believable ‘water-walker’ or ‘dead man walking.’
Creationsism or magic? Students are being taught that God created the world while pulling a rabbit out of a hat?
It’s simple.
Evolution should be taught in science class.
Creationism should be taught in a comparative religions class.
Logical.
I agree with the early answer… What happened to separation of church and state?
I also believe school should “start” teaching because they have been doing a piss poor job thus far. Literacy and overall education are higher in other countries, especially in so-called “third world” countries. Believe or not, the vast majority of those are getting no funding from America either. They simply don’t have as many natural resources or industries so competing on the world stage is an uphill battle.
Creationism, Magic, it’s the same thing.
You’re obviously not a teacher. Public schools in California (I’m a teacher) do teach a unit on religion. We’re not trying to convert anyone. The textbooks explain the basic philosophies of the main religions. My job as a teacher is to make sure my students make informed, educated choices. How informed can they be if they are only given one perspective?
dumb you are twisting things up again.
Schools should be places of learning not mindless superstitions.
Whatever happened to separation of church and state?
Islam believes in “creationism” too, hun.
Theology, philosophy and religious faith have NO place in a science class,
so when you come up with something that resembles a ‘theory’ backed by the scientific community that can be tested, predicted and has evidence to back it up, let us know, K?
If public schools taught magic, the students would just use what they learned to make their homework assignments disappear.
As long as they are teaching all religions, I suppose it’s not a problem. However, if they are teaching Islam as some PR move, then that’s a ridiculous use of tax dollars.
And as for creationism, save that for college theology classes or, better yet, at home with the folks. I can’t think of a class below perhaps some honors class in the later years of high school where teaching creationism would be relevant.
MAGICC!!! i got the magic stick…
Islam condones beheading.
Barrack HUSSEIN Obama believes in islam.
