Help Me Ask an MP Questions :)

The bible isn't taught as fact in British state schools

 

 

 

It was at the one I went to, it was at the one my brother went to, and it is at the one my girlfriend's father teaches at.

 

 

 

I don't think it's done as standard. Clearly, it happens, but I don't think it's practice to do so, as it is in the majority of the U.S.

Ask why are the government have discreetly banned live music at venues without a license.

should the british government spend money improving their cricket team :lol: oh and what do you think of convicts beating you in cricket too :lol:

"Do you think it is wrong to teach christianity as fact in our primary schools?"

 

 

 

I don't find it wrong. Its culture. It is another way of thinking. I think every avenue should be presented to children as they grow to see our world, evolution should also be taught. As well as muslim and jewish believes, hindu and buddhist, ect ect ect. We shouldnt pick one idea and shove it down our kids throats, making them closed minded drones of society, no matter if it is evolution or religion that you shove. All religions...credible religions(no spaghetti monsters)...should be taught individualy as "plausible", and evolution should be treated with the same respect/disrespect as religion.

"Do you think it is wrong to teach christianity as fact in our primary schools?"

Me, I like how we do it in the US- no religion in public schools.

 

 

 

Even then, I go to a Catholic High School, and I don't feel all that pressured. We learn about Christianity (though they don't totally force it on us), but mainly we learn about philosophy, morality and social justice and whatnot in religion classes. Parabola, is it really that bad? Is it like fundamentalist, or what?

 

 

 

EDIT: Okay, this'd probably be better as a PM, as to stay on topic :-k . So if you could PM the answer rather than post it that'd be better methinks :P .

No school i've gone to and no teacher i've had has taught any religon as fact (nor does any of the vast majority of schools here).

"Why does the government feel it is correct to claim up to 40% of a person's belongings just because they are dead" is probably a bit harsh though.

 

 

 

That's a damn good question.

[Ambassadar]

What do you feel the biggest mistake you have made as an MP is?

[Bubsa]

You said it :-w

yep its a good point. i'd like to see the response to that question (not necessarily that wording)

[1_man_army]

Oh, one that I forgot to mention earlier;

 

 

 

"Why does the government insist on renewing the Trident missile system when the USSR no longer exists (It was originally designed for the cold war) & when the money could be better spent - on the NHS lets say..."

[StrOwez]

Well I'm back,

 

 

 

Basically she took two of my questions, because they made her think and the fact she wanted others to ask some questions, basically i asked

 

 

 

Q.1

 

Do you think it is right to teach Christianity as a fact in our school.

 

 

 

A. She basically said a lot of bs, then said it's right in faith schools, but in state schools students should learn other religions and points of views.

 

 

 

Q2.

 

Do you find that your religious believes clash with your political views, because you voted for pro gay adoption yet the Jewish law condemns it.

 

 

 

A. Loads of BS, then she said that she isnÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t really that strong a Jew, she only supports some aspects of the religion.

 

 

 

Another questions asked by my fellow classmates:

 

 

 

Q.

 

Do you think corporal punishment in schools is a thing that is needed in todayÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s society.

 

 

 

A. No I condemn violence and corporal punishment is violence.

 

 

 

Q. Are the bus fairs going to rise AGAIN?

 

 

 

A. No, we talked with (insert company name) and we agreed they will freeze them.

 

 

 

 

 

There was other local questions which you guys wonÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t find interesting, itÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s funny how politicians sway away from questions nice skill.

[One Too Far]

to bad, the things by your classmates got good awnsers tough 8-)

[Biabf]

The bible isn't taught as fact in British state schools

Yes it is lol. In my old primary school where I spent 2 years, everything always led back to God. I almost wet myself laughing when someone asked "Why do we have ribs?" and the teacher replied "Because God wanted us to have them, we are God's people and we shall serve them" (I was athiest from about year 5 or 6)

 

 

 

 

 

Q. Are the bus fairs going to rise AGAIN?

 

 

 

A. No, we talked with (insert company name) and we agreed they will freeze them.

YAY!

[The Dark Lord]

Does the UK really still have tensions with the USA?

 

 

 

Madam President, approximately how many nuclear warheads does England possess?

 

 

 

Is England going to war with Iran?

 

 

 

Do you think Bush is a dumb [wagon]?

 

 

 

What are your feelings on President Bush?

[The Dark Lord]

Damn it. You already went there.

[Bubsa]

I'd like to see if that thing about freezing public transport prices is true.

 

 

 

It makes no sense how the government keeps telling us to go green, use public transport and help reduce carbon omissions by not using your cars, hence the congestion charge, yet they consistently raise the prices for public transport. It's a disgrace.

I blame it on privitisation - just look at the railways (in my area) the price goes up once a year at the same time every year & as if that wasn't enough they go up beyond the rate of inflation & the quality of the service is reduced. The worst thing is that there is little the government can do about it, any saving they give to companies aren't going to be passed on to commuters, it's a completely unjustifiable shambles.

[Bubsa]

Damn right it's because of privatisation. That's one reason why no country needs a Tory government.

[1_man_army]

You have to admire the cheek of the Tory party now though. They've tried to present themselves as a green, caring & sharing party of the people under David Cameron instead of the corrupt, elitist scum that every working class child knows and hates.

[Bubsa]

Oh it's typical Tory. All these false promises and absolutely everyone knows that Cameron won't keep any of them.
