And that's why I'm an atheist. But I still believe that you let children enjoy their childhood and the wonders that are part of it.

I wish someone could do a jesus mural on the side of her shack to piss her off.

That lady makes me so mad!

I'm sure it will be litigated soon.

Believing in Santa Claus is one of the best things in life. I will never forget lying in bed with butterflies when I was little.

Good stuff there. Also despise the destroyers of innocense. I wonder if that self righteous **** has any kids? Probably not or she would know how wrong her actions are. I know how pissed I'd be if my step daughter (she's 4) had come home from school (pre K) with that kind of dissappointment. Drty nailed it when he said those families had been robbed.

The bitch actually had the balls to write the paper and try and defend here actions.

Teacher defends Santa remarks
Editor:
Lebanon Daily News



Last week I substituted at a local elementary school in Lebanon County. The lesson plan required me to read the 1882 poem “The Night Before Christmas” by Clement Clarke Moore to two classes of students. While I can appreciate the poem for its literary value, the subject matter is offensive to me, and the reading of this poem to the children imposed values upon me which are against my deeply held religious beliefs. I could not in good conscience present the notion of Santa Claus as a truth to the children, and stated so.
No public-school teacher should be required to teach a belief, custom or religion that he or she believes to be false, or be required to pass those purported falsehoods onto impressionable children, without the right to state a disclaimer. Furthermore, freedom of speech and religion, no matter how unpopular the speech or against cultural norms the religion, are protected rights.

A secular public school should not be propagating any kind of religion. The belief in Santa Claus as a divine, magical, omniscient, powerful, giving, loving father-figure, to whom children are taught to make supplications and requests, is a religion indeed — a distorted substitute for the Judeo-Christian God.

In presenting the poem, I gave the children some historical background about the Santa Claus myth — its evolution from the historic Nickolaus, Bishop of Myrna in Asia Minor, who died in 343 A.D., to its amalgamation with ancient Western pagan traditions of German, Scandinavian and Dutch origins, to the current manifestation in the secular Christmas culture of today. (Dutch children, for example, would put their wooden shoes out at night for “Sante Klaus” to fill with candies.) The current Santa Claus figure was popularized in the late 19th Century by artist Thomas Nast of Harper’s Weekly magazine, who depicted “Saint Nick” not as an elf but as a rotund, pipe-smoking man in a red-and-white suit. This is the deity to which countless public-school children today are taught to make supplications, and about whom they sing their many songs at annual public-school Christmas programs.

If people are upset about the revelation to children that Santa Claus is a myth — which all children who are taught this lie figure out eventually — perhaps it is because Santa is that zealously guarded idol of their own modern religion. Therefore, as a religion, let Santa be kept out of the public-school classroom — or perhaps, in the interest of “diversity,” make his mythical, oversized personage share equal representation in literature and song and Christmas programs with the other Person of the season: the Lord Jesus Christ, God made flesh, God with us.

Definately not muslim, far, far out there "Christian" fanatic. I have nothing against Christains (I'm one) but I hate people that try and shove their religion down your throat. I'd like to now how she showed the love of God to those kids.

Damn this is close to home. I live in Jonestown (originally form the other side of the state) and I go by that school on the way to post. I think the locals will eat her alive.

A product of a bitter upbringing and feels she should share her misery with the happy populus.

I hope she gets her ass brutally murdered on XMAS Eve.

I hope Santa gets me something good.

That's the one reason I'm glad we don't have snow this year...

We did something similar with the gingerbread man last year. Kids loved it!
