Great News: German Home-Schooling Family Allowed to Stay in US After Asylum Denied

I say let them stay...they just their Mod Edit ~ Rule 9/Circumventing profanity filter -over" by the Government early on. Welcome to America.

 

I don't think you understand what religious persecution is.

 

Many people have come to this country to fully
express their religious views and customs as they see fit. It was founded by such people when the governments of Europe suppressed
certain religions that didn't fit their state agenda.
My family came here, from Germany as a matter of fact, hundreds of years ago in order to escape religious suppression.
The Romeikes are no different. I don't think you know what religious persecution is.

 

Ubama had to find out if they would vote in his favor.

 

It would be the homeschooled...sinse most of the illegals drop out around the ninth grade or so. Then they go into business for themselves. Either importing illegal drugs or more illegals. The only thing they know.

 

I have no reason to doubt what you tell me about your family history but in this case you are wrong.
By law no family in Germany is excempt from compulsory school attendance. If an exception was being made for Christian families, that would be religious favoritism. We can debate if this law makes sense or not, but this is the situation.

 

The family acted against their state's laws by not sending their children to school, and the law says "compulsory schooling". Then they claimed this was a case of religious persecution.
I might as well attend school / university / work wearing a swastika shirt or any other symbol of national socialism, which is against the law in Germany, get expelled / fired and claim this to be a case of political persecution.
BTW they could have easily moved to a European neighbour country like Austria, which allows home schooling.

 

I'm not here to debate the wisdom of German law.
Clearly the Romeikes could not engage in their religion to the extent they wished in Germany. Therefore they came to a place where they could.

 

It was outlawed here 500 years ago. And it was done so for good. Germany is not a parasictic society where you can live without producing anything. You have a gargantuan part of people who simply "exist" without any further contribution. Its the main reason that you have a gigantic debt deficit and germany a surplus.

We see your homeschooled kids here in TV. They want bring their crazy religious tales into reality and teach children nonsense like creatonism. And no i never talked with a homeschooled person nor do i feel the urge to do so.

 

They can teach their children evry nonsense they want at evening when they come home from real school.

 

Does that mean if i practice old aztec religion i can rip out hearts and then claim in your country thats my freedom of religion?

 

Do you base a lot of your opinions on what you see on TV?

Since we have the same flag in the upper right corner of our posts, I feel the need to disassociate myself from that kind of arrogant drivel. Just for the record.

 

The German law against home-schooling is ridiculous; we ought to be protecting people from stupid laws. And I couldn't care less if you granted Snowden asylum. I like him, too.

 

I see it as ridiculous to create countless christian taliban and push children into eternal isolation. I also see most of your laws ridiculous and we protect people here from your stupid laws. Like the man who shot 2 of your marines at airport here and is protected from your medival death penalty laws.

Serious dude, your country has the death penalty, with that its breaking the most basic human law and makes your country a rogue state like Iran or North Korea. A country that has death penalty as option is basicly a failed state and does not have a law system at all.

Did you just throw an personal insult against me? Do you know me personal to call me arrogant?

 

So, basically, you are okay with harboring criminals if the laws they break are stupid, too. I like you.

 

depends, i´m pragmatic.

 

You know the rules. You have to provide evidence of your assertions.

 

you have laws that would stifle the free speech of your citizens and take away their children if they choose not to participate in state sponsored indoctrination, yet you have the audacity to call our laws medieval?? i'd say arrogance is the least of your sins. while i'm no fan of the death penalty, i do see its occasional use as a necessary evil. of course it may be used mistakenly or even with malice, it is far better than the naive notion that a society may be engineered through the use of laws that seek to bend the will of the people to that of the minions of the state. unlike the german people's tendency toward goose-stepping to the tune of their leaders, the american people recognize the importance of the supremacy individual. the individual may be wrong, but the damage inflicted by the few is far less hazardous than that inflicted on the nation by a government allowed to punish the very thoughts of its people.

ignorance is certainly not restricted to religious zealots and the great errors of the species are caused more often by the hubris of our self-appointed and self-serving pseudo-intelligentsia than by those who attempt to choose a more spiritual path. so go ahead and call the believers fanatics or worse. it does them no harm and only highlights your own bigotry. go ahead and allow your leaders to outlaw any but the paths that they choose. there will always be those who scoff at your latest political cult of personality and there will always be a place that will allow them the liberty to pursue their own goals. they will not be isolated, they never have been.

 

Are you the head tyrant of Germany? What does it matter to the 50+ million German population what you would allow? What makes you think you're better equipped to divine the best interest of Germany's children? Sounds to me like you're trying to churn out people who all think the same. People who think like you. Why is that in the best interest of Germany's children? Is your way to learn the only good way to learn? How do you know?

Humanists like to think they believe in evolution and natural selection, but they sure don't live it. What makes you think that the group interests of 16 states will provide better outcomes than the individual interests of 20 million German parents? Time and time again we are shown that trial and error is the best approach to complex design, and yet time and again we structure our systems using monolithic government directives. We allow small minorities to wedge themselves into power and make decisions that limit choices for everyone. That's a recipe for disaster.

Home schooling turns out wierd mal-adjusted kids.

It's the perfect way to create little Christian righties by keeping them stupid.

 

It's a perfect way to raise your kid to be a future white nationalist.

I suspect most of the stormfront crew were home schooled.

 

Did you just make this statistic up, or do you think you have some sort of evidentiary support for this statement?

 

State sponsored Indoctrination?? Are we talking about Germany in 2014 or Stalin's Soviet Union 1950s? You really shouldn't wear your American glasses when judging something that you're clearly not familiar with.
You don't know a lot about today's Germany, do you? I don't know where to start in the light of this nonsense.
Probably watching too much History Channel.
I'll better leave it at that.

Sorry to see that you obviously misread my comment.
I really don't know why you feel the need to bring something up I didn't mention at all.
Cheers.

 

Sure, and I'll present it to you right after you produce evidentiary support that God exists.

 

Science is never indoctrination. Children are not property of their parents. Your words "take children away from their parents" already show how you think. You see children as property and not human beings. Children deserve to be free and if their parents want imprison them in the cage of ideology they deserve to be rescued.
