You've inadvertently proven your own point here. Most children do not learn effectively in a stressful environment, but you are not a professional educator so you didn't know that. The feel good bullshit is intended to ensure we don't live in a world dominated by the personality type which is comfortable oppressing less hardy individuals. One man's feel good nonsense is another's guarantor of individual freedom of action.

Why not?

I am not a Christian but I listen a number of Christian bands, usually metal. Its funny how Christians get so up tight when they hear about a Christian Death Metal band.

Meh, there's been a whole thread devoted to this very subject. I don't care if Jesus backs it or not, it sucks.
