Oh, but it is. It's just the tip of the iceberg. Remove it from public places, then remove the awareness from schools, then slowly but surely outlaw the display of religious articles in neighborhood Christmas decorations.

I'm not saying let's teach it as the ONLY explanation of our history, but it certainly is one that is widely accepted. Let's at least give our students the option to choose for themselves. Especially at the high school level, I thinkg they're mature enough to do that.

Or maybe you're part of the small segment that still thinks students believe as fact everything that's taught to them as part of public education curriculum.

At the end of the day, I'm not going to change your mind, and you aren't going to change mine. Let's agree to disagree on this particular topic and move on. There's too much fun waiting for us!
