Judge rules against bigoted parents

Quote:A San Diego Superior Court judge Monday rejected a claim by parents in the Encinitas elementary school system that teaching yoga in the schools is an improper attempt at religious indoctrination.
The ruling by Judge John Meyer, who heard the case without a jury, means that the Encinitas Union School District can continue to teach yoga as part of its health and exercise curriculum.
The lawyer for the two parents can stop with the BS.
Quote:"This case is simply about whether public schools may ... use the state’s coercive powers to promote a particular religious orthodoxy or religious agenda to young and impressionable school children."
I don't care what the religious beliefs of that family are....they can kindly fuck off.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

If the teacher ever breathed mention of the "spiritual" end of yoga, it's a legitimate case. Make em push it up, do the crunches, and run a 2mile.....honestly yoga? Sigh, ...........
Now, not that hinting at something or promoting it discreetly or indirectly would be a very solid case...but.....
There's a yoga-like- practice involving wicca and the stations, a "stretching exersize" if you will. Howsabout I spent a state grant and my time as a public teacher instructing yall's kids on that?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I'm not sure...I would not have known yoga was religious at all had some Christians in the South mentioned it as an insult to people doing yoga or maybe it was out of fear.
And from what I have noticed from Hinduism is that a lot of their rituals seem to be based in medicinal discoveries...aka they're natural yet they attribute them to the spiritual.

Meh, maybe this or that person doesn't know, but so long as one person does and brings it up..it's a cut a dry breech, isn't it? I'm not going to let your fairy tales into my public schools and state grants..so why would I let someone else's?

Wonder of wonders, strange people create elaborate supernatural stories to explain a fairly mundane and natural experience......doesn't matter.

I think yoga tastes like shit. And those stupid little fucking containers they put it in.
Keep it out of our schools.
