So if oppression has always been there it is pushing to ge rid of it?
Oh my.
Let's put this in a context the right can understand. There are many people who do not want any mention of sex in school. They do not want health classes that teach anything but abstinence. Why do they feel this way? Because what teachers say does have an impact. And health is not religion, it is only how some people interpret their religion that makes them think health classes are somehow in conflict. How much MORE oppressive to actually have kids praying or singing to a God they do not believe in? For people who get their undies in a twist over health class and scientific theories, you would think it would be easy for them to understand why other people might balk at foreign Gods being mentioned in school. But then logic is never a huge problem for some people.
