Lsdfunk ::: Favorites Then the class should be theology/philosophy. Not christianity/creationism. Any way you look it this, bar the biased view of the fundamentalists, it should not happen. 07-10-09 09:20:48 __________________________________________________
jetmanisme ::: Favorites That's not entirely true. Learning about different religions has value when one studies various social sciences such as political science and sociology. 07-10-09 08:05:06 __________________________________________________
cactuscac ::: Favorites Religion shouldn't be taught in the schools at all. It's got nothing to do with learning, it's a personal thing. Parents can send their kids to church if they want them to hear bible stories. 07-10-09 02:36:25 __________________________________________________
voiceoftruth2006 ::: Favorites "A large Somali immigrant population is probably going to need comprehensive beginning English instruction" If an immigrant wants to move to a country it is his own responsibility to first learn that country's language. He has no right to expect the host country to take care of that for him. I am appalled at the arrogance of immigrants who expect the host nation to bend over backwards to accommodate them. Ich lebe in Deutschland jetzt. Ich habe ein Recht, das zu sagen. 07-10-06 07:19:20 __________________________________________________
voiceoftruth2006 ::: Favorites "Are you telling me that a town with a large Somali immigrant population wouldn't have drastically different curriculum needs than a rich, predominantly white city?" Why should it? Do 2+2=5 in Somali maths? Do Somalis need to use a different variety of English grammar? Does Somali chemistry include edible lead? Doesn't evolution happen in Somali biology? 07-10-06 07:13:39 __________________________________________________
voiceoftruth2006 ::: Favorites "You should try to explain the similarities between creationism and evolution." What similarities? There aren't any! Creationism/ID is just an old myth. Evolution is a thoroughly supported scientific theory. 07-10-06 07:10:03 __________________________________________________
DeadFishFactory ::: Favorites In a real-life forum or discussion, then yes, there would be none of that. Are you forgetting that this is the internet? And of the internet, not only is name-calling, hostility, and sarcasm encouraged, it's mandatory. 07-10-04 16:38:10 __________________________________________________
wildbestia ::: Favorites well.. i guess the curriculum is not about not taking extra classes or extra study. curriculum is about standard, like let's say - alumni of high school must have learned physics, chemistry, know what integral and derivative is. And it should be same in the whole country. Now if some family or community feels the need of some extra study - fine. From the other side, some Somali kid might be well educated and I don't see any reason why he should be studying less (or more) than rich white kid. 07-10-03 14:40:27 __________________________________________________
LacusOdii ::: Favorites A large Somali immigrant population is probably going to need comprehensive beginning English instruction at every age level, for one. Likely that they will need remedial level classes for all age groups. Don't you think that community will get gypped by No Child Left Behind if brand new kids from a third world country are being compared against rich white kids? 07-10-03 14:17:37 __________________________________________________
imhischild29 ::: Favorites What's up with all of the sarcasm, the hostility, and the name-calling? Grow up! If you choose to disagree, disagree! The scientist at the end gave his dissenting view, but he didn't have to belittle anyone to do it. Take a lesson! 07-10-03 02:55:03 __________________________________________________
