I just watched a program on TV about high school teenagers. It seem in several schools all the kids were getting A's,which is unusual, so someone checked into it and it was found out that they were brow beating the teachers into giving them high grades, teachers were happy to do it because it made them look good as a teacher.It seem some colleges are doing it too.
Seems the real problem is with the mealy mouth wimpy teachers at these schools. They shoulda just kicked the crap out of the punks and gave them all F's. The Teachers are probably all members of the ACLU.

Again it was probably the ACLU that cause this. If you have no fear of punishment you don't have much need for remorse. Build more jails I say. Bring back the whip. A good lashing by the principle will take care of it. A good rap across the knuckles with a ruler does wonders.

Well said Everett. A man is no better than his word. Without Honor you have NOTHING.

WAALLLLL you can't have it both ways Everett. Our Constitution was set up to protect us from the church running our government. Separation of church and state. It's been a long time since I was in school but I do remember reading what happened in countries where the state was run by churches. It wasn't pretty. I would not want to be in that situation. I might just rebel. The "Public" schools are run by the state and the Federal government contributes money. So, they are part of the government. So you cannot have the church involved. I don't think they removed God from schools. I think they removed the church(whichever church you want to call it is up to you) It did not have anything to do with religion, it had to do with the U.S. Constitution. If it was not in our constitution they would have had a much harder time of getting it removed. Get the Government out of our schools and you can have all the religion you want. BUT.....which religion, which God? How about the one that tells them to kill all who do not believe in their God. Should that one be taught. Or Jewish, Should they forbid mentioning Jesus in school but read the Tora? Or Voodoo....wooohoooo Zombies and cutting off chickens heads at recess? Disclaimer. I am only using these as examples I mean no disrespect.
Morality has nothing to do with God. You want a kid to behave you must teach him right from wrong, that is morality. If he lies you kick him in the ass. If he steals you kick him in the ass, If you tell him to mow the grass and he doesn't you kick him in the ass. Bring back corporal punishment. NOT beatings or abuse. But a good old fashioned whipping.
