We were playing school and they decided it was assembly time.

So Religious Child A (7) stood up and started speaking about her faith and Prophet and how people from her religion are wonderful people who help whoever is in need and the elderly, and how the Prophet will bless all of them when they die and they will all go to heaven, and how it is important to be from this specific religion and go to her Church and say prayers regularly.

Than other Religious Child B (6) followed saying that she is a from religion B and so is her family and lots of her friends and they are also good people who help the ones in need and the elderly too, and it doesn't matter your religion or which church you go to as long and we respect each other and don't do bad things.

Than child A was embarrassed and said that she meant to say everything B child said....

Than my own child (6) stands up and do a comedy piece that got nothing to do with religion.

I was just astounded that these children shows so much religion awareness at this age and the A child would feel the urge to bring religion in the playing, although I understand this is probably what happens all the time at her faith school.
I am so glad my daughter doesn't go to that school.
I am very proud of the B girl and she just goes to a mixed community school, which seems that is doing a better job about teaching R.E

Oh and I have had the A child for a sleep over once and she had trouble falling asleep since I couldn't pray and sing religious songs exactly like her parents do every night. I did my best.

I can't help feeling a bit sorry for this kid.

And I worship the Prophet of A religion by the way.

Oh and forgot to say: A girl spent most of half term in her house in order not to be exposed to Halloween stuff going on and in fact on Halloween day they never left the house because apparently this a bad and heavy day when lots of evil things happens.

I am not mad at halloween either and I don't go trick or treating mainly because I am on the shy side but I am solo glad there are Halloween activities going on during the half term.

Why have you posted this again with the religions taken out?

I thought I was going nuts cos I'm sure I read this post earlier with catholic and Muslim( muslin) children mentioned?!

Well some people got upset about me saying which religion were which and I wanted to be impartial. But you gave the game away kansasmum

Plenty of people saw that post. I did, though I didn't post on it. I hardly think you can accuse kansasmum of giving the game away...

SweetSkull · 02/11/2013 13:46

I was not being mean to kansasmum just trying to make a joke.

If you're a Christian, I don't understand why you feel sorry for the Catholic child... So religion is a part of her life, what's the problem?

Really? Again?

SweetSkull · 03/11/2013 22:48

This new thread was written earlier on, ommiting any religious nominations since some MNetters thought that religion was irrelevant to the issue and I also wanted to be imparcial and not to offend anyone.

I have asked HQ twice to delete the first thread but it's still there unfortunately.
