Whatever you say rkz. I've just been reading a lot of your posts lately and from my perspective, it's seems to me that you have one view of things but it's just not the way it is or was or ever will be.

Point in case, religion in all it's forms. Although I agree that church and state should be separated, I recognize the fact that religion forms the basis of culture within the state and therefor, it is almost impossible to separate the two completely. That being said, I don't believe the state should have the right to legislate with religion in mind.

I have to refute this. I responded at least twice that the anecdote you referred to re UK schools not teaching about the Holocaust (Nazi extermination of Jews) referred to one single school where it wasn't even set on the curriculum. You continued to post that the UK were scared of Muslims & amended their curriculum accordingly.

That is like me starting a thread entitled US Employees Won't Employ Men With Moutaches because it was a Disney theme park policy.
