Lmao.

Fuck yeah. Social Studies taught by a Satanist with a dead eye. It's like budget Hogwarts.

Be sure to stick around for the After School Satan Club

It's asthetic as hell. I know this guy was rocking the look first, but it's got big papa emeritus vibes.

What is this picture supposed to be of? A man who is depressed about his eyes being different colors? I can't tell how it's supposed to be related to the article.

Ahh, thank you. I'm familiar with the man but not much of one for faces.

If worshiping the dark lord can lead to spending time in public schools, maybe there's something to this whole hell business.

It's probably an unpopular opinion, but if public school chaplain positions are open to everyone, if they provide spiritual counsel to students who want it, without proselytizing or coercing students into religious activities, and if their work is controlled by the school to stay sure they don't contradict scientific teachings and respect the psychological development and freedom of children, they can be a good thing. Secular France has this kind of chaplains, and it's great; somehow I don't believe it's possible today in Florida.

That's not how people who believe in imaginary sky daddies work.

You do understand that this is super religious America and not secular France, right?

Maybe op edited the comment, but they did end it with this:

No, they did, they just continued arguing for it despite that.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, I did, because you know, America is not the whole world. I was speaking about school chaplaincy in general.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

And my point is that chaplaincy in general is not really relevant to the way they want to do it in Florida. What you're calling a chaplain is not what they are thinking of as a chaplain. It might sound similar, but they want someone to preach Christianity to children. All of them. That's the goal there. Sunday school in regular school all day every day.

This is not about France's idea of school chaplaincy because that's not in any way what this is or intends to be just because it used the word "chaplain" in the job description.

I don't know why we're debating when I have the impression that we agree and are saying the same thing?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

That’s how Lemmy works. Most of us kind of agree on things. There aren’t many hard core religious or hard core republicans here. So we end up yelling at each other in frustration, establishing the left-leaning as the far right of Lemmy.
