Religious people try to force god onto children in school

I'm just saying that it wasn't a right wing conspiracy of some sort.

Why does doing the wrong thing have to be a conspiracy to be wrong. Some times, the word "dumb" applies, far too often with the religious. At the very least, it was myopic and a flagrant violation of the constitution.

Not well in schools run by demoncrap administrators turning innocent children into future psychopaths and sociopaths.

Only psychopaths think invisible demons are making them gay. That's what the religious teach. Religion is the most common form of child abuse because the abusers kid themselves that they're doing God's work.

The question is, what kind of God demands that the threat of torture be a child rearing technique...and don't get me started on their literal Rearing of children.

I take it you don't believe parents and overseers should discipline children?

Time outs and safe spaces don't get the job done, according to teachers experienced with more suitable forms of discipline.

"... teachers experienced. . ."? Uh huh. So you don't believe that parents and teachers should not be restrained in the ways they discipline children. Nice, the sadists will be quite happy to follow your lead.

I don't believe Christians should be presumptuously told by the state not to spank their children when God tells Christians to spank their children.

Teachers spanked kids when I was in high school. Christian parents spank their children because God tells them to. Who do state employees think they are to try to countermand what God says?

SOME state employees see themselves as protectors of children.

God tells SOME parents to spank their children, depending on how one translates the original language. Download Thy Rod And Thy Staff They Comfort Me: Christians and the Spanking Controversy

That god you worship is such a nice guy that he even OKs killing a child if they don't behave as the parents of the child demand.
Deuteronomy 21 NRSV
18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father and mother, who does not heed them when they discipline him, 19 then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his town at the gate of that place. 20 They shall say to the elders of his town, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of the town shall stone him to death. So you shall purge the evil from your midst; and all Israel will hear, and be afraid.

You may find studying a variety of theologians helpful in figuring out what the Bible is saying and how it applies to you.
