Please ensure you are keeping copies of these posts. I ran a similar thing in another forum years ago but lost it all when the forum went down. It will make a good book someday.

But let me ask you sir in your unbelief has there ever been a period you felt like maybe you are wrong and you want believe again.

Many people do not have faith but still believes somehow because it costs them nothing and lose nothing.

You have tried oo. Since 2014. But let me ask you sir in your unbelief has there ever been a period you felt like maybe you are wrong and you want believe again.

So, I saw a video that got me infuriated.

A young female school teacher posted a Facebook video showing herself leading her student in praise and worship session, right in the classroom.

Questions:

1. Who gave her the right and permission to post such a video of people’s children?
2. What makes her think she has the right to indoctrinate other people’s children with her religion?
3. Are all the children in that class Christians?
4. “Did the teacher get approval from all the parents before taking this spiritual trip with these babies, not to talk of videoing them and putting it on social media?” So Phie

The average Nigerian religious person is a religious zombie.

There’s this compulsive urge for many religious Nigerians to want to shove their religions down people’s throats. Just like a deeper life teacher in a Federal University in Eastern Nigeria told the female students to stop wearing trousers, that they should all wear below the knees skirts or dresses, and she also asked the male students to stop wearing jeans. And just like a Muslim lecturer in a Federal University in Northern Nigeria asked all the female students to start covering their heads to his class.

This is ridiculous.

You are a teacher/lecturer. You don’t have the right to force your religious doctrines on your students. In saner countries, that would earn you a sack. You are using your position of trust to infringe on the rights of your students to choose a religion or none, practice a religious doctrine or not. This is actually a FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHT you people infringe on.

If I want my children to do praise and worship, I will take them to church. If I pay tuition fees, I’m paying for them to learn academically. I don’t want any teacher indoctrinating my children with her religion.

What many of you Nigerian Christians and Muslims need to understand is that not everyone gives a Bleep about your religion. Not everyone gives a Bleep about your Bible or Quran.

Your right to indoctrinate people into your religion ends with your children and your church and mosque members.

I do NOT want my children to grow up as Christians. I don’t want any Christian teacher to make them do praise and worship at school, where I would pay through my ass to get them to learn.

My right to decide that I don’t want my children to be Christians (especially the Nigerian brand) is as valid as your right to decide that you want your children to grow up as Christians.

Practice what you want on your children. But you haven’t got the right to practice such on other people’s children.

A school teacher is paid to teach academically. Not to indoctrinate people’s children into his or her religion.

Nigerian Christians need to understand boundaries.

Not everyone wants to be Christians. Not everyone cares about whatever has been written in your Bible. Stop shoving your Christianity down people’s throats. Leave other people’s children out of your shits.

Despite how religious you all claim to be, your country is still in a rotten state. A vast majority of Nigerians are religious, including all your thieving political office holders, employers who sleep with potential employees, lecturers who sleep with students to give them due or undue marks, bribe givers and collectors, you are all mainly Christians and Muslims.

*-*

This issue of Christian and Muslim school is one of the worst disasters happening on earth today.

Most of these Islamic brainwashed kids who volunteer to kill people, or even sacrifice their lives as suicide bombers were bred in many of these Islamic schools.

Let school for children be a place to learn academically.

Leave religious institutions like churches and mosques to handle spirituality.

You are a Christian teacher, practice your Christianity in your church and at home with your family. Don’t force my child to pray with you.

This religious madness has got to stop.

Just want to ask a question you said schools don't have the right to indoctrinate someone with their religion

Do schools have the right to teach children evolution theory and flying spaghetti monster?

hopefulLandlord:
rightly so


Evolution theory? absolutely! Evolution is a SCIENTIFIC CLAIM, its on par with teaching them physics and biology

FSM? NO!

danvon:
Depends on your idea of 'scientific claim' besides science is limited it's very slow in progress although efficient

hopefulLandlord:


your point is?

danvon:
From my view evolution theory is 100% unscientific

joseph1013:

Yes. Evolution theory deserves to be taught, just like Germ theory, Cell theory, Particulate Inheritance theory, or Dual Inheritance theory. They are all in the same category according to science.

No. Flying Spaghetti Monster does not deserve to be taught in school. It's in the category of Harry Potter series.

hopefulLandlord:


what makes you hold that view? what's "unscientific" about evolution theory?

danvon:
Do you know that Harry Potter is read to children in American public schools? I hope you know Harry Potter promotes the religion called 'Wicca'

joseph1013:

Yes, it's read as a story that it is. Fiction. Same way some of us were fortunate to be told stories of the tortoise and its tricks under a big tree. Remember tales-by-moonlight?

Wicca is a religious movement like other religious movements. It is not taught in American schools to American school kids.

danvon:
Good why don't they read books about a boy who became a Christian that's just fiction, even the Bible is considered fiction by them why don't they read David and Goliath to the children it's just fiction those things are banned but Harry Potter isn't

joseph1013:

You don't mind us reading the Bible as the ridiculous book of stories that it is? You mean, we are free to take out the horrific parts and tell stories like that of the Good Samaritan to teach ethics and merits of good deeds to kids?

danvon:
I'll just make it simple, why are there still apes if we evolved from them?
