However, it should not have any place at school at all. Except in history lessons: on the effect religious trends had for the forming of a culture, in good and bad. the state should also not see it is it'S duty to teach religion. It should enforce that religion and state keeps separate instead.

Never said we do, I only pointed out to August that it is possible to get lessons about religion and science in school.
Seperated from each other.:D

BTW
here the state is teaching religion in school and not some private fanatics.

Oh I'm sure you can get religion separated from science but can you keep a science teacher from voicing his opinion about religions (either in general or in particular) in class?

Like when little Johnny comes home and says that his teacher told him that all religions are superstitious clap trap and those that believe in a supreme being are fools or worse.

Y'know kind of like how some people around this forum talk about religion. I say both have to be kept out of school and that includes science class.

Maybe opinion itself should be kept out of the classroom, with the possible exception of when opinion is the subject.

I totally agree, but as a teacher myself i must admit that this is sometimes easier said than done, especially when we're passionate about a subject and we have inquisitive students.

I fully understand. I knew I was suggesting the impossible even as I typed. It would be nice if everyone knew where to draw the line, but that's impossible too.

Your wit cuts with the dullnes of Uwe Boll movies.

"Boll does not shy away from his critics".
"Boll made headlines by challenging his critics to "put up or shut up".

Cool! Anyone with the balls to adapt movies from video games is fine by me. Better to try something and be panned than to sit back and let the critics dictate policy... :up:

Ehm... Postal isn't exactly high-end gaming. Where you talking about say Red Alert 2 I'd agree.... :rotfl:
