BORDENTOWN — Students won't be allowed to sing religious holiday songs at winter concerts in a Burlington County school district.

I never heard of a holiday called “winter.” I thought it was the name of a season.
I’m sure we have to be liberal, we have to be politically correct, we have to avoid offending someone, we have to be inclusive of other faiths, yadda, yadda, yadda.
What else? We have to celebrate diversity. We can’t refer to specific holidays because we have to respect other faiths and celebrate the diversity of faith.
Any liberal catch phrases to add????
Do an Alynski, overwhelm the system.
If everyone just refuses to “comply,” and sings songs they like, the whole commie pig system would collapse.
Like to see them arrest some two hundred or so carolers.
Grow some gonads, take them on.
Each school board member should go on record if they support this policy, then come election time people will get a good idea just what sort of community they have.
Then why bother to have your winter whatever?
Nothing says Christmas like state censorship of religious songs.
What a sham.
Government school is child abuse.
Another Christie problem or success?
Let’s face it. New Jersey is still a liberal cesspool state and nothing is going to be done by Christie to change it, esp. with Booker as their new Senator.
Liberalism is the poison of the soul, political correctness is the methodology, cowardice through silence is the “default position” of the “silent majority” and this story is further proof of it.
When the hell are the citizens of New Jersey going to say “I’ve had enough of this liberal crap and I’m not going to take it anymore!”
When are the people of New Jersey going to thrown the “NEW HESSIANS” the hell out of the state, out of power, out of political positions, out of School Boards, Administrations, Teachers Unions?
This is just **one** example of the thousands of binary decisions that all schools must make that can never be religiously neutral in content or consequences.
Solution: GET GOVERNMENT OUT OF THE SCHOOLING BUSINESS!! Begin the process of privatizing all education.
If the school forbids the God-centered music it teaches the children that religion is somehow shameful and must be hidden away as if it were a bathroom activity.
If it allows the God-centered religion, then whose denomination with the government sponsor? And...the government then imposes unwanted God-centered thinking children who are captives of the government in its institutions.
Fundamentally....GOVERNMENT SCHOOLING IS A FIRST AMENDMENT AND FREEDOM OF CONSCIENCE ABOMINATION!
I agree 100%. However conservatives as a lot are more concerned about our families and jobs and don’t make good protesters. Somehow we have to find ways to recruit protesters to muck up the works
This has been going on since the early 80’s!
Amen. Dismantle the public school system.
It’s insane.
My state is likely one of the reddest in the nation, yet, at Christmas time **all** the government schools have signs outside that say, “Closed for **Winter** Break”!
There is no where else to go. My county is the end of the road.
Forget the protesting.
Do what hurts the most. Hit the Marxists in their wallets. Remove your children from the government’s collectivist schools.
Think about this, please!
In many counties, and even in some entire states, if Christians and conservatives simply removed their children the ENTIRE system of the EVIL and godless K-12 collectivist schools would IMMEDIATELY COLLAPSE! That is all it would take.
Call to prayer at regular intervals throughout the school day, over the PA system.
Kids who don't like it can go to the dhimmi room.
Sorry, that's the way it is.
Great idea!
The best though would be for conservatives and Christians to remove their kids from the commie-run K-12 collectivist schools. I bet that even in N.J. there are counties where, if conservatives and Christians did this the entire evil commie collectivist schools would collapse.
Yep!
They definitely shouldn’t **bully** or **stalk** others with their godless worldview!
