<< Hi SeaWolf, Well, I was being a little sarcastic because in American
schools
or government schools(the schools which taxpayers pay for) it is against the
law of the land to teach any religion or to teach about the soul or the
spirit. So of course, only the physical body is studied in tax supported
schools, so I feel that it was a fair sarcastic statement. My heart is not
in the public schools. I dismiss most of the politically correct *stuff*
that the schools teach.

I gotta say, I'm happy they don't teach religion in schools. I was the only
Jewish kid in my school in a small, mostly southern Baptist Arkansas town
(where the entire police force was Klan), and they prayed to Christ everyday
in the schoolroom, had religious assembly (only protestant, never Jewish,
Islam, Buddhist, Catholic, Wicca, Pagan, Hindu, etc.), and tried their best
to convert me. I felt like I was on a constant battle ground from the time I
walked into kindergarten. I'd rather be "politically correct" than
"religiously correct".
