I don't suppose you remember the sign I saw a couple of weeks ago?

I talked about it here.

I happened to drive by it again today. This time I was able to read the last few words. Here's what it really says[1]:

"Y IS IT THAT CHILDREN CANNOT READ A BIBLE IN SCHOOL BUT THEY CAN IN PRISON"
I don't know if that's better or worse than what I thought it said.

[1] The bolded words are the ones I couldn't quite read before.

In the same entry, I mentioned that I tried to find out if Ana-Lab would match donations for Katrina relief made to the Red Cross. Today I recieved a note which stated that if Ana-Lab employees wanted to make a donation to the Red Cross or Salvation army to help with the recovery from Katrina, Ana-Lab would match donations. It's a bit late for them to match mine, I think, but it's good to know that any further donations will be matched. And it may be my vanity but I think I had a lot to do with getting that to happen, since I was the one who mentioned it to Debbie. Go me, I guess. *smile*

Just another example of a fundamentalist group using faulty logic to try to make a "head-nodding" point to persons of less than adequate education or intellect.

School is a place to learn secular, not religious, subjects. Religious teaching is what your local synagogue, church or mosque is for.

Prison is not specifically a center for learning by any stretch of the imagination. If they want to read anything in prison, I suppose they should be allowed to in most circumstances, just as you or I should be allowed to read whatever we want at the local coffee shop.
