Scripture is clear that Jesus was accused of hanging out with tax collectors and 'sinners'.

Because he was trying to change their sinful ways.

I hope that your point is that we should strive to do the same. Clearly, he wasn't screaming at them while having a meal. He was listening and being...uh...mannerly. Otherwise, I doubt they would have stayed very long.

I hope that your point is that we should strive to do the same.

While I think we all should, I will not tell you or others that you must.

I only speak for myself. Not you or the school board.

Let me add that I feel sorry for the child. She must be confused and hurt.
