Can Public Schools Be Religiously Neutral?
Argues that secular humanism is the religion currently being taught in public schools, and that the schools should therefore be open to all major religions.
http://www.leaderu.com/humanities/neutral.html

Extractions: LU-Announce Can Public Schools Be Religiously Neutral? Paul G. Kussrow and Loren Vannest The Supreme Court ordered that all religious activities be removed from the public schools (Engel v. Vatale, l962) and in subsequent years strengthened its decision through further restrictions (Abington v. Schempp, l963; Stone v. Gramm, l980; Graham v. Central, l985; Jager v. Douglas, l989). Who can argue against neutrality? We who have a fundamental belief in God can point to the significant decline in standardized test scores, increase in student pregnancy, and violence in our schools since the Court's l962 decision. But the question remains, and has the Court been able to remove religion from the public schools or has only certain types of traditional (God based) religion been removed while non-God religions fill the vacuum? Is a religiously neutral public school education an oxymoron? Can individuals who think and work in what some term government sponsored institutions (public schools) truly be neutral and teach in what others hope will be religiously neutral zones? What is Truth?
URI Kids :: World Religions
Short introduction to the beliefs and rituals of this ancient religion from Japan.
http://www.uri.org/kids/other_shin.htm

Extractions: Shinto means the way of the gods. Shintoism is an Ancient religion of Japan. It started at least as long ago as 1000 B.C.E. but is still practiced today by at least five million people. The followers of Shintoism believe that spiritual powers exist in the natural world. They believe that "spirits" called kami live in natural places such as in animals, plants, stones, mountains, rivers, people and even the dead. Shinto places of worship are called shrines and are usually found in beautiful natural settings. The shrine contains an Inner Hall which is only entered by Shinto priests since it is believed kami are present. Shinto priests can be either male or female. Purity is important to Shinto followers and therefore they rinse their mouths and wash their hands and hang up wooden tablets with prayers on them before entering the prayer hall. Once inside, the kami is summoned with a bell and offered rice or money. After which the worshiper bows twice and claps twice to welcome the kami then bows again. Shinto shrines are marked by a special archway called a torii. This archway is believed to separate the sacred world of the shrine from the world outside. There are about 80,000 shrines all over Japan. Each shrine has a yearly festival in which people pay their respects to the kami and celebrate with food and drink.

Extractions: From filibustering Frist to taking a stand on Darfur: Our annual roundup of college campus activism. Advertisements Advertisements R enowned world religions scholar Huston Smith says, "Every society and religion has rules, for both have moral laws. And the essence of morality consists, as in art, of drawing the line somewhere." For Smith, a practicing Methodist who for 26 years has prayed five times a day in Arabic and who, at 78, still does hatha yoga, that line can be drawn creatively or idiosyncratically but it must always be done with discipline. Best known for his book The World's Religions (published in 1958 as The Religions of Man

Llanowar
Includes geography, religions, new monsters, d20 system classes, and a modified magic system.
http://www.legolas.org/llanowar/

Extractions: Home Classes Geography Magic ... Religions Welcome weary traveller to the Keep at Candlemass. Here, we have attempted to catalog as much of our world, the World of Llanowar as we can. Our scribes have travelled wide, and attempted to seek the hidden truths (as well as those visible) awaiting them. Our world is a large, and mysterious one, and you never know where you will find a hidden nugget of truth, waiting to be polished, and set down for posterity. So, pull up a chair by our hearth, and preuse our scrolls. There is much here for you to learn, and perhaps there is a bit for us to learn from you.... The World of Llanowar is a collaberative effort of Devon Jones, Dustin Tanski, Peter Shmalcs, Lee Gonzales, Scott Todd, and Many others. This world is intended to be a unique and interesting setting for Role Playing Games, concentrating mostly on the D20 System. Added: 12/07/2001 - D20 logo added 12/07/2001 - Added the initial version of circle magic. Also added borders to the CC2 llanowar map. Finally, because it has been released under The Open Gaming License, I have started adding the standard D20 classes that are used in the word of llanowar. I ahve to say, the open gaming license is the best Idea WotC has had. Kudos to them for their forward thinking. 11/05/2001 - Gained permission to use the city "Samanthar's Creek" from Tony Marker in a modified version for the Llanowar city of Macomb. Thanks Tony!
