Somehow, we got some state money, and it was nice to order some teaching materials that this K-8 sorely needed. It was in a very poor part of town, and offered black children and others who were not catholic a choice over the very dangerous and dead end public school in the area. I don't know how the church divied out $ to the schools. Anyway, I'm a firm believer in separation, but it did benefit kids, not all of whom were catholic.<br /><br />Also, we all attended a period 1 "service", but there was, to my knowledge, no other indoctrination, and I could teach whatever i wanted in my science classes, including evolution and sex ed. I'm sure I didn't get into abortion or any other controversial subjects not suitable for middle school kids. Likewise, I don't recall any admin telling what or what not to teach.<br /><br />Now...don't get a big head...I logged into the blog today...1775 times...just to give you some street cred.

White supremacy is the lynchpin of that actual history and those privileged by it rightfully see secular humanism as its antithesis.

I’m trying to imagine what supporters of these changes believe America will be like once abortion is banned, LBGQT books are banned from libraries, and there is no longer separation of church and state. Instant Nirvana? Suddenly everyone happy?<br /><br />So depressing and so insane. <br /><br />KAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786764158320829279.post-73584632284336162002022-06-21T14:31:05.827-07:002022-06-21T14:31:05.827-07:00You need to go to Church!You need to go to Church!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
