Folks, this may be a sign of impending armageddon. A Worldnutdaily columnist, Len Kinsolving, has actually written a reasonable, moderate, sensible essay on something. Kinsolving is usually one of their nuttier columnists, even relative to their normal nuttiness, but this column is astonishingly well considered. He's writing about the Dobrich family and the way they were treated in Indian River, Delaware.
When Mona Dobrich went to the Indian River School District board meeting and asked that the school board consider prayers that are generic and less exclusionary, it ignited a local storm.
One speaker said to her: "If you want people to stop calling your son 'Jew boy' you tell him to give his heart to Jesus!"...
Is there no Christian in the vicinity of Georgetown, Del., that shares my Christian faith that Jesus Our Lord is utterly appalled by what has been done to this Jewish family?
I'm sure there are many Christians in the area who agree with him, and this non-Christian certainly does. Unfortunately, they're drowned out by the bullies and loudmouths. Of course, the WND then makes up for it with this ridiculous article claiming that a UN treaty could end homeschooling in the US - a treaty that the US hasn't even ratified.

"Although signed under the Clinton Administration, the U.S. Senate never has ratified the treaty, largely because of conservatives' efforts to point out it would create that list of rights which primarily would be enforced against parents."
Heaven forfend that children should have rights! Actually, it wasn't ratified largely because it outlaws the execution of minors.
