Discussion 12th Grade and down

[ShadowMaid]

I have seen that many other people that I have talked with are interested in some of the debates going on that are 1 on 1. They can talk about it here. :)

[Imrahil]

We might have a use for this thread again.

[Imrahil]

I guess our discussion is boring people Christine.

[ShadowMaid]

Gee... wonder why? :rolleyes:


;)

[Imrahil]

Am i really that boring? :(

[Christine]

Our discussion is boring? :shocked: If this topic is boring, why are so many of the adults discussing it? ;)

[Imrahil]

Maybe the adults are boring. Who knows?

[Imrahil]

It may take me longer than planned for me to post a response Christine. I have a couple things going on for the next week so I'm not sure how much time I can devote to it. Sorry about the delay.

That's ok Imrahil. That gives me a chance to finish up a few things that, when finished, will allow me to devote more time to this. :)

[ShadowMaid]

Oh, I wouldn't say that this is boring,..... but.... well... okay, maybe it is boring. :eek:

Howdie everyone, it's my first post here, so I thought this dry thread would be the preferred place for this. I'm in grade 11 in Canada, attend a Private Mennonite school, been raised Christian Scientist all my life, though I should mention I'm a strong athiest.

Look forward to posting more, and figuring out how to get cool stuff on the left, maybe a star.

[ShadowMaid]

Cool. Welcome to TOL. :) Glad to have you... and I can think of some other people who are happier that you're on their side. ;)

Welcome to TOL Griffin. I look forward to engaging in a debate or two with you. :wave: :)

Unfortunately I missed the public education vs. home school debate; I would have liked to add my private school input. I'm also taking Calculus by home school and went to public school for 6 years.

Anyways, I don't know if this is the right place to put this but I think an interesting debate would be the role of religion in schools. The Pledge with "under God", how to approach the teaching of Religious Studies, where do we separate?

Actually, you might not have. There is Battle Royal Jr. (big debate) in the works, over homeschooling vs. public schooling (we still have some scheduling conflicts to work out).

As the only private schooler here (to the best of my knowledge anyway), your input would be very interesting.

You could start a new thread in the forums if you wanted. I think that that would be an interesting topic to discuss.

Shadowmaid...You are incorrect about G being the only private school product here. I am one too.

Why don't you start another thread? This topic would be of interest to me, especially since my views may differ from other Christian youth on this board. :)

I finally posted my long-overdue response. Sorry for the delay. I wish I had a better excuse but I've been kind of busy and I'm a bit of a slacker so it took me a while to get back to working on it.

[temple2006]

Sorry, SM. The post shud be addressed to Greywolf.

That's okay. It's all cool. :)

[ShadowMaid]

So are there any thoughts of the small debate going on between Imrahil and Christine? Any personal views that anyone would like to share? This thread isn't just for 12th and down graders. :)

[Imrahil]

I doubt many people even remember it anymore.

[Christine]

I remember it ;) I haven't forgotten. I hope to have a rebuttle posted before the weekend. :)

[Imrahil]

Oh don't worry about it I just haven't seen that thread or even this forum for a while.

[Christine]

No, really, it should have been posted lonnng ago. But with summer, other responsibilites came up and it was put on a back burner. Now, summer is slowing down and I can pick it up again.

[ShadowMaid]

No need to feel rushed. :)

[Imrahil]

No need at all. I'm just sitting here waiting. No rush. ;)

[Dread Helm]

Are you still waiting.........?
