It sucks, I beleave this was the wrong move because its a government acting as a parent to school kids, trying to hevy handedly disrupt that child’s religion. Wanna get these kids “free from their opressive religion”? Talk to them as a peer. Social movements are there to do that, even ones that work mainly in the school system.
Couldn’t they’ve picked a less extreme way of handling this situation than “we are your parents, we think you shouldnt have to dress like that so now you wont”.
I’m really glad all the smug atheists came over from reddit too
Why don’t you pray about it?
Because I’m an atheist. I just don’t think being one means I’m smarter or more civilised than religious people.
