double standards and church and state :: essays research papers

     Double standards ar when there are a tempered of rules for adept couch of people and another set of rules for another set of people. How dose this pretain to the seperation of church and state do you ask? Relgion in inculcate is my answer. We as scholars are not supposed to talk our trust in school. But along with that there is also a section deep down each of our text books that is all about religion.     Teachers tell us that those are only classics and we have no reason to complain. Then they expect and incourage us to discuss about the a religiose storys within our text books. This dissemble collide withs numerous students religios or not uncomfortable. I know this because I have asked several(prenominal) students how they felt about the offspring.      One student had told me how he had to go through with(predicate) a watchword an atheist student had brought up about his thoughts and beleifs on reli gion. This made the student i asked very uncomfortable and angery at the feature that the atheist student was preaching , as my friend felt, against my friends religion to his class. This act of discussing, as the teachers put it, made this sertain student very angery at the circumstance that the teacher can sit there and let the student preach against someones beliefs. Knowing that many people, not only the student I rundle to, believed in what the atheist was aposeing. So my friend was not the only one angery at that discussion and not showing it, but many were.     This issue of discussion also gose other ways. For example, say a Jewish student was assigned ,along with the rest of the class, a religious short story on a Christian belief. When he returns to the school and the teacher starts a discussion on the story. The teacher explains the back ground of the religion and gets into great tip . To this Jewish student this sound alot like preching the Chrisia n beliefs to the class. There could also be a different student in the class that had the same conundrum and he or she just happens to be a Buddist, Muslim, Mormand, ect. This explaining of the Christian religion could sound like preching to anyone with a different religous back ground.     Anyone that can make a student quit reciteing the Pledge of Allegiance every mean solar day just because of the statement, "One nation under God".
