Yeah, Ban All Religious Schools In The U.S., ESPECIALLY The Christian Ones
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is pretty much an unhinged hateful wingnut, BUT her ranty opposition to religious schools is nothing all decent people shouldn't support on some level. Does Hirsi Ali hate Islam with the light of 10,000 burning Qurans? Sure. She's got a personal beef. Got it. In the good ole USA, Muslim schools aren't the problem, the Christian ones are. While it is probably not a good policy to ban them outright, certainly the emphasis should be on tolerant, well-rounded schools teaching science and history and literature and shit and NOT teaching hilariously dumb stories about fictional gods and angels and that crap. Religious organizations should be tolerated but not endorsed or financed in any way; a true pluralistic society doesn't put any one persons stupid faith ahead of any other person's silly beliefs. Christians have way too much influence around here, and people die because of it. As far as Hirsi Ali goes, her being married to a cretinous fool like Niall Ferguson tells you all you need to know about how fucked up in the head--along with how much of careerist--she is.
