Yipes, I haven't seen this much effort in posting since the glory days of JAG. Thank you gentlemen.
My point is real simple.
Teachers feel that preaching to children about saving the planet is perfectly fine. My son gives me regular reports. These mini sermons are NOT fact based. They are essentially statements of faith, theory or part of a personal value system.
This is a cultural thing. It's ok to push this agenda, legal or not.
But the ACLU would have a teacher in court in 10 minutes if they shared their personal faith in a traditional religion, especially if they were a southern evangelical ( which I once was, by the way, don't consider myself one now, but I still feel a distant connection ).
I find this replicated everywhere. Theme parks that are deisgned to entertain get real preachy about saving the planet. Schools, hotel rooms, the evening news, etc. It's not logical and the funny thing is that the State is supporting the establishment of this system.
