I'd be at the school in a hurry asking about this bible man. I'd be pretty pissed if some clown were teaching my girls to embrace the nonsense. I'm all for kids learning and taking what they've observed to make up their minds. And I feel that I teach my kids to look for truth, but I wouldn't sit by and let some dickhead push religion on my kids and hope they don't fall victim to the madness.
Im from Wales in the UK, yeah that's what i mean i am becoming increasingly frustrated about it, in other aspects of my life im pretty vocal and unashamed of anti theist beliefs however dealing with the subject with the kids is different somehow. I made my own mind up about the shortfalls of religion maybe they will to however I do need to deal with this from a different angle maybe explain how these are just stories with no evidence to back them up.
The bible - the most successful work of fiction ever produced
I suppose I also see it like, the kids don't have a say in what they are taught or what storytime entails. This man's ideals and beliefs are literally being forced upon those children in your son's class. As innocent as this bible man may make it out to be, it has no place in the classroom. It would either stop, or my kids would not be in that class for a minute longer.
