Do you remember ‘penis inspection day’ at school?

RE: Do you remember ‘penis inspection day’ at school?
From the quote box:

Quote:● Students will identify Judeo-Christian values (e.g., rule of law, God-given rights, equality of mankind, limited government, separation of powers, consent of the governed) in founding documents.
● Students will recognize the influence of the Protestant work ethic on economic freedom and personal responsibility.

The first sentence quoted has every single word a lie, most of the stuff that gives us rule of law (eg habeas corpus, presumption of innocence, fair trial, prohibition of excessive punishment) comes from non-christian sources, if the bible were the source of our legal system we'd still be gutting chickens to prove guilt. Rights most emphatically do not come from god, in all the abrahamic religions humans are abject slaves to god's will.  Equality of mankind is not a thing, though if the bigoted idiot who wrote this meant that all are created equal, then I've one word for them, just one word, slavery.  christianity posits that god is absolute ruler and under god is the king who must not be gainsayed, same goes for separation of powers, god holds all power.  Consent of the governed derives from pagan Athens, under christian rule the governed must unquestioningly obey their absolute rulers.

On the "protestant" work ethic, in Germany, the country where this idea supposedly originated, most of the industrial areas (the places which are praised for having it) are in the largely catholic Rhine-Ruhr valley.  Plus you've got totally catholic Belgium and northern France.  In fact the protestant work ethic is totally dependent on where the natural resources are, and they happened, in England, to be in protestant areas.

That's bullshit.

What does it mean that they're "moving forward" with this? Is it a done deal, and the next step is implementation? Because liberal American values do NOT find a foundation in Christianity, and it's miseducation to suggest otherwise.

Far right nazi ideas on the other hand, do.
