Asymmetrical system of education leads to imbalanced way of life
Recently a Hamilton area father, dentist and follower of the Greek Orthodox Church filed an application with the Ontario Superior Court seeking a court order to gain religious accommodation from the Hamilton Wentworth District School Board which is guarantee via policy, this after politely asking the same board to accommodate his family's way of life by allowing for their public school aged son and daughter to in the area of moral and spiritual education, an exclusive area for direction with inherent rights and responsibilities of the parents. Asking for advanced notice to avoid or withdraw from lessons, activities or materials in areas where subjects touch on sensitive areas is basic diplomatic protocol, when the given instruction from government run education violates the values, ideals and beliefs of the family, it becomes paramount for the state to look after the autonomous hereditical authority of the family or else it loses the confidence of its members, erodes and eventually fails.
That single failure of that specific family unit leads to a slow decay and eventual destruction of society in general, as that bond now broken connects with other broken ones to realize that family of today is not what it used to be, which begats a modern society that behaves differently and more deficiently than any before us.
We must realize the limits of the state, just as we recognize the infinite possibilities and opportunities it has to make our lives better, creating the starting foundation for familial values, ideals and beliefs through moral and spiritual education taught by the state and its curriculum that favours humanism, secularism and relativism is where the line must be drawn. Also, traditionally any well thought out state run curriculum has recognized that both the science of fact and the religion of faith has always been, until only the last century, the best of friends and should once again be allowed to begin again together coexisting in a sign of love, peace and toleration. Life is too fast and too short to ignore the best of education in all of these foreign lands where the sum takeaway is effort is time, time is money and money is power, for those who do not believe in an education system that allows less exclusion by opening up and becoming more inclusive to others not in step with the modern mainstream majority, then humbly may I suggest they join the same minority they have supposedly left and subjected to the dark world of intolerance.
