we already have mental ebola. It has weakened the thinking of black people.

Lawprince: Practising one's faith provided it doesn't infringe on an else person's right is a fundamental human right.

But see Hipocrisy on Nairaland! When the Muslims were advocating for wearing Hijaab in Lagos schools, many of the posters never saw it as a fundamental right then. I'm amazed at our double standards.

my friend are you a muslim? cos i'm

If that is the school policy as a secular institution of learning, then the boy and any other student is bound to obey. Leaving is an alternative.

They can't make unreasonable demands and expect people to abide by them, just because they feel uncomfortable with it. Their act is senseless and very wrong. Haba, how can an individual be deprived from going to school for such flimpsy excuse? Not that he took a gun to school.
then why are Christians crying when Muslim girls were wearing hijab to Christian school in osun state?

You people should stop being hypocrites for once.

It is as simple as ABC..the boy violated school policy and therefore deserved the suspension.

There is no two ways about it.

If the boy wants to read the bible during recess, he should be enrolled into a school that permits such.

NEXT!

no I am not a moslem, I am just fascinated that the most persecuted book on earth is the Bible... no other book has been, modified, damaged, challenged, destroyed, hoarded, re-translated, hidden as the Bible... chai Bible don suffer... and so also the holders of Bibles dont escape these persecutions...

rubbish.!! There are thousands of minority religions that are being discriminated on And Worse things done to their Followers. Yet none of you stand for equality cos you have been indoctrinate by religion that other religions are not the way ,truth and life . The Moment your sect accused u Start to rant like its only you against the world and everyone hates you... Am not happy with the punishment On the boy.. But I think this has to Implemented in african schools. I saw a 5 year old. Muslim boy sing “father abraham Has many sons” and the father was just looking @him. Now he has Enrolled His kids For Saturday And Sunday Arabic Classes. Its not like the primary school they are Attending is a Missionary school. its just a private school. Its indoctrinating our children. Like it has indoctrinated alot Of the citizenry. If you are in a biology class and you are reading economics book , is it right to u?. Will the teacher shove it off all in the name of reading? You have your homes, family, friday, sunday, mosque and church to to help further your child's religious studies and missionary schools where you can have a field trip with your religious escapades. there is a difference between the church and government. Mixing up the two is like Using fuel to quench Fire. Although there are a thing Or two to learn from Each Other. We are building a weak, racist ,triblastic and mind degrading educational system if we don't address all this. the effects are already visible in the sector

nnamdibig: PLAINVIEW, TX – A 13-year-old boy was suspended from school after he was caught reading the Bible during recess. Plainview Middle School says Joshua Patterson violated school policy by reading the Bible in school.
School officials say the student was warned several times that he could not practice religion during school hours, but refused to comply. A letter was sent home to the child’s parents warning them that Joshua could be suspended or even expelled if he continued this behavior.
Patterson’s parents, who are devout Christians, told their son to continue reading his Bible because it was his Constitutional right. Megan and Daniel Patterson say they intend to file a lawsuit against Plainview Middle School.

“We are going to fight this with all of our might,” said the child’s father Daniel Patterson. “How can a school tell a student that something as simple as reading his Bible is wrong? We teach our children about the miraculous wonders of God, and Joshua has taken a special interest in religion. His dream is to one day be a preacher. This school has violated the rights of our child, and we will ensure this never happens to another student.”
The school refused to elaborate on why they chose to suspend Joshua, other than saying his actions were directly against school policy.

Its interesting that later they will be surprised and wonder why the students are shooting each other in school. Surfing the internet & watching pornography is probably not banned in that school. Did he read the bible to anybody else? When we force children to turn away from God, we force them to turn to the devil!

Should have been the first policy introduced in Africa by the law makers after the end of colonization!

Nothing worse than having your people mentally and spiritually colonized by the colonialist enemy who then enslave and colonize your people!

1Jo 4:3 and every spirit that does not confess that[1] Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

And we have several of them littered all over NL, looking for the slightest opportunity to refute the existence of God. Continue being an atheist until the plane is about to crash

If this is not his first warning, he should have obeyed or atleast found another school.

Imagine the chaos and confusion if everyone took their religion to school.

I doubt most of you people here will want your child/ward to sit beside a boy who comes to school with Juju if his parents are Pagans.

One thing that also defines a skul wit good mgt is ability to mangae crisis (wateva d type or course). There are 1000s of skuls worldwide dat givs liberty to it studnts to practice yet no crisis watsoeva (cept for few cases of some religion goin xtreem bout it)

My opinion, academic would make one a professional but d core value of moral is imbeded in religion if tought and accepted d right way. Xtain or izlam

Can someone tell this woman is not making sense. grin

There are thousands of religions with their scriptures round the world and will also call your bible "satanic".

Even the Jews that own the old testament bible will call your Bible false.

Re: Boy Suspended From School For Reading Bible During Recess by lebienconnu: 8:31am On Jul 31, 2014
Every school, like all legal entities, has its own policy of which, i beleive, the parents are aware. Keeping the child in that school may jeopardize the boy's dream of becoming a preacher in the future. I suggest that the guy be enrolled in a school which does not have anti-religious policy.

my opinion.
