Should Religion be taught in Prison?

[krazedkat]

I was helping a client who came through to me the other day to find vacancies and I stumbled upon a job offer from HM Prisons for a Muslim Chaplain, oh my non-existent god, the annual pay was £36,000 to £50,000 depending on experience. That's three/four times my salary and they're not what I consider to be consultants regardless of what they may tell you about supposedly 'reforming' Islam convert extremists (bullshit).

Can you imagine the burden this is having on the taxpayer? I thought these bastards were in prison to be, you know, punished, i.e. to serve a sentence, not to be radicalized and further their deep-rooted hatred for society.

And as for arguing for their rehabilitation? Let them rot for all I care. Anyone convicted for a foiled dirty-bomb/terrorist attack has essentially forfeited all their human rights in any case, I'd personally deport them with or without their bloody passports and ban them from entry into the country ever again.

It's all bullshit. Really, this "conversion" business is SOOOO fucking small. They get all excited after converting one person . I think that jail-time is punishment enough for crimes o_o... Also, taxpayers shouldn't have to do this, USA is to be a secular state :\...
