Progress numero dos!

So I read this article (more like Wikipedia if that is even considered and article?) about how christiannity was banned from public high schools. The court case was Engel v. Vitale in 1962. The parents of some of the students at Herrick High School brought up the case because they felt that when the school prayer to Almighty God was offending them because contradicted thier religious beliefs. So Congress said that having this prayer was unconnstitutional because it violated the First Amendment. i just thought this was interesting because I had nev er known how the whole no prayer in schools began.

Progress numero uno

So, i finally decided my controversial topic. It's Christianity in the classroom and in schools period. i just got done writing my propposal and I think it's good. There are some definite questions that I want answered about like how did praying in schools become banned and whatnot. i also want to know whether praying in schools differs depending on the type of school (Public, Private, religiously Afaliated, or not). One of the hot topics of this subject is if Darwinism or Creationsm should be taught in sciennce courses. I would like to interview Mrs. Bradley and get her reason for why she chooses one over the other. The mini spinoff of talking about Christianity in the classoom, is whether other religions other than Christianity feel that their religons should be taught in the classroom and how are their children affected by being taught one thing at school and another at home?
So yes, this is the progress have made, I haven't really started on research, but I will soon.

Christianity in the Classroom

I’m not positive on the controversial issue that I want to write about, but I’m strongly thinking about doing religion in schools. My main focus would be on Christianity since there have constantly been issues with that in American schools. I’m interested inn this topic because elements of Christianity are a part of my religion and I want to understand why they are not always accepted in schools. I believe that all religions should be accepted in a school because that is one of the first steps in having total acceptance of diversity in an atmosphere filled with so many different types of people. Knowing the other side of the argument is just as important, and I don’t know that side as well and think it will be interesting to explore. I’m not sure if I will be able to write like 5 pages on it though, and that would be my only drawback. But if I get enough info then I should be aight.
