Religious education debate far from over
Published: 21 July, 2009, 09:35
With schools preparing for the new academic year, the debate continues over whether religious education in Russia should be taught more widely – and whether it should become a school subject.
The problem with Islam is that it does not teach you to be a patriot to your country on the contrary it teaches you to be loyal to your own co-religionists even at the expense of other non-Muslim inhabitants often in violent and brutal manner as we see across the world wither it be in Southern Russia, Thailand, the Middle East the Balkans, China, Africa and India. In fact across the world were Muslims reach a critical mass of per-population over there non-Christian inhabitants and there is success for likely rebellion and domination there is likely for violence. This is especially critical to Russia due to Muslim population growth, militants linked to foreign intelligence for geo-political advantage and organised crime and support financial, physical with foreign fighters and theological with Saudi sponsored religious schools and teachings. In the Crimea Tatars are seeking to expel ethnic Russians through large population growth in the area and organised militants attacks and support from the US and probably Yushchenko in Ukraine to be the dominant players in the region. Wouldn’t be surprised if Ukraine and the US were smuggling weapons to Crimean Tatars in the future to cause a civil conflict in the Crimea that would benefit Ukraine, EU and the US and expel the Russian Naval fleet there. According to F. William Engdahl Crimean Tatars are on the lists of people on the US catalogue of people or separatist groups supported by the US and there CIA affiliates under UNPO. http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=14327 http://en.fondsk.ru/article.php?id=2167 http://en.fondsk.ru/article.php?id=2143 So expect to see a Balkans operation like they did in the former Yugoslavia against the Serbs.
While not wanting to unnecessarily reopen old wounds and pour salt on them for the sake of saying "See we told you so," from a (Catholic) Christian and American's perspective, Russian schools are taking a much better approach towards teaching about religion in their public schools than we, and EU nations are. Far better to present religious values extolling the principles of the Ten Commandments, Sermon On The Mount, etc., than to be ramming ideological notions in their heads such as totalitarian nations have done in the past. If teaching religion in public schools is considered "dangerous," may I ask "dangerous compared to what? ... Stalinism, and Naziism?" The millions of Christians in Russia lost to Stalinism alone, 20 million and counting, provide all the answers you need to settle this dispute. Russia is taking the right path on this issue. I only wish American public schools would drop their growing antipathy towards religion and Globalism, Multiculturalism and Moral Relativism. Keep it up Mother Russia. But with one favor, include more favorable mentions about your (Roman) Catholic cousins.
I find this topic about religion in schools interesting. Because, everyone is religious. Religion is nothing more than one's "heart felt belief". From the Atheist to the Christian, they have heart felt beliefs. I have a website. ******. I ran for the Senate in America, not that I wanted to take up residence in the "District of Criminals". There is a section covering Education. It's short but interesting. Religion is taught in the schools, like it or not. Intellectual learning must run hand in hand with moral education. When one has a good intellect but no morals, what kind of a person is he? The American Founders taught: There is a God. He holds people accountable for there actions in the after life. Any religion can accept that. If you don't believe there is a God, who or what should you be accountable to?
