Christians have criticised the growing number of schools which have dropped their traditional assemblies in favour of multi-faith sessions or ‘moments of reflection’ which include children staring at rocks, meditating or discussing the news. More than 140 primary and secondary schools across Britain have won the right to opt out of the legal requirement to provide a daily act of worship which is ‘broadly Christian’ in character. Several hold Islamic assemblies with readings from the Koran, while others hold sessions giving weeksequal prominence to all faiths and sometimes incorporate events such as Black History Month and Chinese New Year.

i remember my primary school days.... it was 100% white, there was no diversity and equality bullsh1t and certainly no readings from the islamic book of terror and paedophillia. white kids these days are in trouble if they dont have racially aware parents to tell them how it is. |

What's being racially aware got to do with Islam, and the rise of extremism? I have read quite a few of your posts, you sound like a Stormfront troll. |

I remember my primary school days. lets say it was 99.2 % white. My parents are still proud Sikhs...and i remember being so scared as I felt forced to reject my parents...used to cuss and swear under my breath when the lord prayer was read. Held on to my little "kara" ....and prayed to be saved from this brain-washing....and the brown bashing that used to happen on a daily basis.... I was baptised 6 years ago as a Lutherin..Christian. My choice, my Will. Still respect Silkism and can prayer in Temples....this time the other way around. Touch my crusifix...but know IT is MY choice. I am safe in a Sikh temple as cousins and friends ask me why I go to church for communion. Point...Assembley is important BUT cut the religion out. Speak about British values, democracy, our great Scientists and Artists, Why the world loves X factor... our Olympic legacy, Heros of the UK and what they did. Lets NOT brainwash the kids... lets have assemblys again...Why did we lose the World Cup Bid to Mafia land..??? should we become Ruski Putins ?? Why is the UK against this FIFA madness. Assembley about why it is better to go out and play..not X-Box yourself to dumbness... Teach religion in History...but TELL the truth about the butchery if Islam then. By the way..equality and diversity made me "made in the UK" ... Thats a UK value we should stop the Islamacists abuseing. Happy CHRISTIAN xmas. Was the hash provided for free ?

If they want to learn there own religion then do it after school, schooling is for education and to help us get jobs not read a koran instead of maths....imo keep it out.

This is a total disgrace and another step forward for Mo, make no mistake. The Christian assembly is/was part and parcel of British education. It cannot be consigned to history. Sorry chaps, but us who were educated at Public School will never see this occur in our "alma maters". The state system needs a fugging good kick up the Gary to stop this nonsense. If you are Christian or not, this is still a Christian country and state education should, no must, reflect that and the values it carries. |

Lacoste, ferk off I kind of agree. I think students should have the chioce and shouldn't have any sort of religios doctrin spouted at kids the age of 5... Christianity, sihkism, Islam or Hinduism... Let them make the chioce when they're older... |

Utter nonsense, Race has nothing to do with it. Being 'Racially aware' as you put it, is something a White/Ethno Nationalist would say. Islam is not a race, you can be of any colour or Nationality. You belong in the NF/C18 camp, nevermind anyone being in the UAF camp. If that's the best you can do i'd give it up as a bad job. |

Christianity IS a massive part of our history and it is certainly part of our national character. Why should this country change itself to suit those who CHOOSE to come here? I believe in "when in Rome", I don't give a flying where you are from but in my house you follow my rules. When I come to your house I'll follow your rules, don't come round my house telling me how to arrange my furniture thanks. |

It doesn't matter, it has nothing to do with race. Do you think that people who aren't white but are non-muslim feel any different? They don't want to be Islamified either. It's that simple, why do you need to bring nonsense like that into it? I'm quite surprised a White power believer like yourself is on here, haven't all you lot been told to give the Defence Leagues an almighty swerve, by all your Forums such as Stormfront, Blood and Honour etc?[R4E]Typo[/R4E] Edited by Blue C, Dec 5 2010, 06:33 PM.

As a Christian I like the ideal of the Christian bassed assembly. But reallity check, these days with the students forming a multi faith student body I think a mono based religous assembaly has passed its sell by date. I personaly feel that the time has come for a none religous assembly, to bring the school together as one and pass on relevent information. |

Lionsingh, if you have a problem with Shelfside, then I have a problem with you. Why are you always so offensive? You ever been to a demo? Me neither, but I don't insult people who have been to a demo and you shouldn't either. I've had enough of your insulting posts, you always insult people when they never insulted you. And another thing, you told somebody recently that they were not EDL, who are you to tell them that? |

He or she is probably another UAF plant posting messages such as this to tarnish the name of the EDL. I've seen a few like this on Facebook... UAF then take an image of the dodgy message that they've posted and then repost it pointing to it saying oooer look the EDL racist bla bla bla. |

why not have moments of reflection or topics that are useful? We had stuff like this at secondary school but then we had a change of headteacher who tried to bring back christian stuff and prayers and she got laughed out of the room basically (probably more down to her red hair being camouflaged into the curtains and an awful irish accent, but hey). Only faith schools should do that sort of stuff imo, we're not muslims, we shouldnt try and force people into a certain religion or brainwash the kids. This was at a grammar school. |

I am a Jew and I fully believe in nations holding onto there founding principles. If a nation is Christian then you should allow for Christian functions at school's. This does not mean that non Christian kids should be forced to sit through them. They can have something else. When I went to Public School in the states we always kept Religion and Schooling seperate, the only thing we reaffirmed was our loyalty to our nation with our pledge of allegiance. That is not to say that Britain should not do what Britain does. If kids are not of that faith they can opt out of it and do something else. Have prayer groups for all the other kids or something. Western Culture is losing it's identity, we need to do whatever we can to reinforce our faith and idea's. This includes Christians being Christians. |

I didn't say your British should do it, only that we do it in the States. What do you mean "and then we will go live somewhere else"? |

I think the assembly creates a unity between classes, I remember we had a few sikh or hindu kids in class and they always sung hymns and recited the lords prayer I'm not a bible basher but our fundamental laws and I believe general moral behaviour stems from our christin heritage. |
