Illogical nonsense

The confused Rachel Notley has decreed that the proposed Catholic Sex Ed program for schools in Alberta will never pass.  Really?  For her information, the provincial government has no business telling the Catholic School Board what it can and cannot teach.

It's a Catholic institution -- not the public board -- and if non-Catholics want to direct their taxes there and send their children to these schools because educational outcomes are better, they are at liberty to do so.  And if their kid gets exposed to Catholic dogma about sex ed, so what?!  It's a Catholic institution so guess what?  It teaches the Catholic curriculum -- sex and all.  If you don't like it, don't deliberately send your kid there.

Can you imagine Notley decreeing that private Muslim schools cannot teach Muslim values?  Just feature it!  And by the way, we all know what Muslim schools in parallel societies worldwide are teaching students.  You can bet Sharia Law and separateness are in there with bells on, along with the wearing of the niqab and burka for girls past puberty -- a demeaning practice Notley vigorously supports in the public thoroughfare.  What does she tell herself when she supports a Muslim practice, but won't allow a Catholic one?  I mean, what goes through her mind to justify this oxymoronic stance?

If you are going to dictate teachings in one school, other than a public institution, then you have to do so in all, which means you have to ban all separate schools.  What's next -- book burning?  It's ludicrous. 

And what about Jewish Shuls and Temples?  Will the muddled Notley jump in there too and tell rabbis which end is up in that religion?  Just let her try it.  Growing up, I went to Sunday School to be taught scripture that wasn't part of the Monday to Friday public curriculum.  Will this too be banned?

But never mind all that.  It's always open season on the Catholic Church.
