slingshot effect posted:Less wages means more jobs cry the Exhalted Job Creators, safe in the knowledge that no one with a voice loud enough to be heard will call them out on their craven bullshittery, as if lower wages won't just mean keep the same amount of young people employed but working them harder to wring out every last drop of cheap labour capital. If people can't afford to buy things it'll prob lead to less employment.

I'm glad they are getting the opportunity for an education, as they very well should be. But this comment by Morrison: quote:"It is the government’s responsibility to ensure that detainee children within Australian facilities receive full-time schooling, in line with Australian community standards," Holy poo poo. How has this man not formed some kind of irony singularity by now and collapsed in on himself.

the Australian community is generally pretty okay with Catholic education, it's Islamic education you'd have resistance to

I think that theoretically it's okay for Catholic Education to provide education to asylum seekers, as long as they don't try to shove bibles down the kids' throats. Unfortunately, I don't really trust a religious organisation not to do that.

I was asked to leave (not officially expelled because then they have to refer you to another) Catholic school and I am generally hosed up but I don't quite know where that anecdote fits in with the data.

Went to Catholic private schools from year 6 onwards. I didn't really care for the religious stuff myself and was very critical of the Catholic faith in Religious Education but oddly enough the very religious teacher we had marked me highly and was very encouraging of my work despite his personal belief which I didn't expect. He did kind of ruin any respect I had for him, however, when he tried to implement starting our Science class with prayer, at which the entire class pretty much complained as a whole. In regards to asylum seekers, though, I think it's pretty insensitive as a lot of these people are Muslim or not the least Catholic/Christian. Not that Reichsmarschall Scott Morrison gives a crap about that.

I didn't go to Catholic school I was in the state government system from pre-primary to year 12. I believe that a teacher who is Catholic or works for a Catholic education organisation is nevertheless capable of satisfactorily delivering lessons. There is no reasonable grounds for religious discrimination.

Realtalk: a person in the Catholic sector is capable of delivering lessons as capably as someone in a secular one. This isn't why Morrison is having people from the Catholic Education Office deliver lessons though. He's doing it because he's a racist piece of poo poo who wants to pray the When it comes out that they're giving religious education which amounts to "how tops is Jesus? Boy, the pope is swell dude" I'm not going to be surprised in the least.

I went to a co-ed Anglican school with chapel once a semester and a chaplain that moonlighted as one of the middle school science teachers I think I got pretty lucky edit: the chaplain-cum-science teacher had no weird religious young earth/creationist type poo poo going on Jonah Galtberg fucked around with this message at 10:29 on Jun 15, 2014 |

My Brother had to explain to his Christian science teacher that no, there is a pretty good theory about the formation of the moon, there is no big scientific mystery only explainable by God, and that he was an idiot.Captain Pissweak posted:Realtalk: a person in the Catholic sector is capable of delivering lessons as capably as someone in a secular one. So theoretically yes, but I'd never send my kids to a religious school and just hope for the best.

I must have been lucky to go to a Catholic school where all the religious stuff was kept strictly in the bible study classes. In fact students themselves could opt out of that class even if their parents wanted them to go. I remember an incident where some parent showed up and started shouting at the staff in the main office about her son not going to bible studies. Eventually the principal came and talked to her and told her that the school refuses to force religion on an unwilling child. I guess Australia has more in the way of fundamentalist Catholicism?

I went to a catholic convent school but I was very, very lucky. It was a crunchy granola lefty socially progressive school. We got taught about privilege and why we had a responsibility to give to others less fortunate. I did my first feminism subject at 13 and went to my first protest with the nuns at 14. The religious stuff was fairly constant but we were taught to question and challenge and the year 12 religious studies class was basically comparative religion. We also got taught about indigenous history since white settlement from a sandal wearing hippy former sociology university lecturer. So very lucky. Single sex schools aren’t great for social development though. I made some dumb, dumb decisions when I got to Uni ….. sigh.
