And You Thought Thinks Couldn’t Get Worse — 2

From the high court to the public schools.

It seems that the public education system in England is taking a lead from their Lord Chief Justice, Lord Phillips. According to this report, they’re indoctrinating the children in the practice of Islam. And if they don’t comply OR they don’t do it correctly, they are punished.

The two boys belong to a class that includes 11- to 12-year-olds, and after their refusal to participate they were given detention, the story says.

Furthermore....

Another parent, Karen Williams, told the Mail: “Not only was it forced upon them, my daughter was told off for not doing it right. They’d never done it before and they were supposed to do it in another language.”

As the saying goes....

...the thought....er...plot thickens.
