Canada mother calls for ban of indigenous ceremonies in schools

[Violet_Crumble]

5. This Atheist mother has no problems with indigenous ceremonies in schools

Even when I was a kid, though religion was taught at my school and I hated being separated from my Catholic best friend twice a week, indigenous groups would come to school and do cultural stuff so we could learn about their history and customs. We got told stories about the Dreamtime, and i guess that weird Canadian mother would have shrieked about it being religion, but like Canadian Aboriginals it's not, not in the sense of organised religion. It's ancient and it's a vitally important part of the culture and history of our countries. That's why they expose us to it, so that when we're adults we aren't wankers who think there was nothing here before European settlers arrived.
