Description[?]:
As we have moved towards the modern society our traditions, folk and faerietales have been lost to us. Whether by the drive towards secularism forcing anything which might remind one of Christendom out of society or simple though the hustle and bustle of the modern world taking from the world those times when a mother or nursemaid would entertain and teach with the adventures of the miller's son and we have lost of footing. Things that once everyone knew are now only known by academics or only a bastardised [read disney] version is known and this is costing society greatly. It has been said, by some, that history is a road well I say that it is a tower ever rising into the sky and we are losing the foundations, we may tilt but we might just tumble. Before one can begin to see the sense of what exists today one must understand what came before it, To understand modern literature one must have atleast the briefest of comprehensions of Victorian literature which is nonsensical without knowledge of Shakespeare, Homer and fables of Faerieland. Nothing stands alone and nothing has a single purpose, Faerieland is different to all totalities both Christian and Secular and so though a knowledge of Faerieland it becomes possible to question totalities, Faerieland is nonsensical while to a child making complete sense and so by remembering Faerieland it becomes possible to make sense of the modern totalities and finally [in explanation but not in purpose.] Faerieland is a paradox and so by looking at it it becomes possible to look at Humanity and the universe. These stories and jokes, parables and songs which for so long were the root and backbone of civilisation for so long must be told that there may not be a man in the nation who could not name Odysseus as the king of Ithaca or George slayer of Dragons, the purpose of the third wish, the age of the third witch or the destiny of the kings thrid son. Not a child who doesn't know that you cant get everything you ever wanted without losing something you needed or that you might well lose it all by breaking a law you have no reason to break. -excepts from 'Democracy of the Dead' Eamon Christopher Moreau Marquis da Velieres Cildanian Studies [name amendable, it is Christian Traditional Studies in Departmental Schools and collages.] The aim of this bill is ensure that all schools teach a class [which is already included in all departmental school curriculums] Cildanian Studies atleast once a week for all students aged 4-10 [it would then of course be optional as a full elective course dependant on the demand of the individual school.]. In the class the childern would be taught those fables and faerietales which set both the foundations of all that follow them and teach the lessens of childhood and teach them uncensored or modernised in order that they might know the world before they try to get to grips with the universe. The difference between the class in Departmental schools and secular schools is that departmental schools start with the totality that some of these stories might be true and secular that none them can possible be, whether or not you can believe in them is irrelevant, its not important that they be seriously considered it is however that they are considered at all. -Mrs Laura A. Frost When we say all schools must be Christian, we mean all schools must be Cildanian. [[That it is to say primary schools have a requirement to teach CIldanian folk stories, Fairytales and Nursery Rhymes and secondary [high] schools, the Greeks, Shakespeare, Christian Romances and those unnamed due to being in the fictional world not this one which were in which are the cultural building blocks of Cildania, her great national literature and poetic heroes and masters which elate the hearts of the Cildanian patriot.]] For many decades this policy raised the standard of Cildanian Education until it was thoughtlessly thrown away by the Unionists in the interests of International Finance. This is a Bill to restore the previous policy. Description does not include past amendments to this policy although the Bill itself includes them. |

Message | we oppose all kind of fundamentalism, it's not about financial interests, most parts of the bible, koran, or any religious text had proved wrong for decades by SCIENCE, and the students need to taught real science, real applicable science that will REALLY HELP humanity survive through ages. If you still believe that bunch of text is omnious, even Copernicus himself jailed for stating that the earth is not the center of the Universe like The Old-Times Priests said. Now it's PROVEN. we prefer total ban of religious schools, but we're fine with current regulations I Yield. -Barack C. Norris, Spokesperson and Hairstylist of the RawL Party |

Message | [[[We are not talking about american protestantism, Religious schools does not mean narrow-minded fundamentalism. We support Reason and common-sense against such insanety as the 'literal truth' of the bible as much as we fight the oppressive dogmas of liberla science. With Copernicus most of the clergy had been debating that very issue for hundreds of years but the Emperor forced the view against him as a compromise with the reformers, It has nothing to do with Religion as it was a Political move to lessen a civil war and has nothing to do with Doctrine. And Nothing to do with Cildania. This does no harm to the study of Science, in no way are Science and Christianity incompatible except that the current Scientific ruling class go out of their way to discredit and attack Religion in order to main their control on society and let them away with true evil in order to fill their own pockets though the rape of mankind. This calls for the re-establishment of the teaching of the Cildanian Cultural and Religious heritage in Cildania, it in no way prevents the study of science or does anything to the science curriculum. You have you read what the bill actually proposes and then take TWO SECONDS of thought on it before jumping to conclusions based on totally irrelevant issues. ]] |
