Religious symbols...Why can't I take my troll doll to class if others are allowed to display their crosses?

Answer 1

First you would have to prove the troll doll is a religious symbol - that trollism is your religion. Then you sue. There have been several cases where Pagans have sued and won allowing their children to wear pentagrams to school. Its an all or none type proposition. If you are going to allow crucifixes and fish symbols then you must allow others.

Answer 2

It's slightly disturbing that you see your troll doll as a religious symbol!!!! But I see your point. Pagans aren't usually allowed to display their pentagrams in school because of religious prejudice. But Christians can display their crosses???

I think the answer is that crosses have become something of a fashion accessory more than a religious symbol for a lot of people. It's stupid. If schools are going to ban relligious symbold to cut down on bullying, then crosses should be banned too.

Answer 3

A doll is not based on a religion. We have the right of exercise of religion in the 4th ammendment..Although Christians are getting the short end of the stick throughout the US when it comes to symbols, bibles, prayers, even graduation speeches...the US has no problem with the symbols or mentioning false gods and dieties...but they have a hissy fit if anyone says Jesus...Why? What are they so afraid of?

Answer 4

Nope! fortunately, I stay in a small specifically Christian community and that they haven't any objections. in certainty, final 3 hundred and sixty 5 days or the three hundred and sixty 5 days earlier, a sixteen 3 hundred and sixty 5 days old had recommendations cancer and on the front of the highschool exchange into an indication that pronounced "Pray for Brian". On Tuesday, Sept. eleven, 2001, we had a voluntarily prayer consultation out by utilising the flag pole for the time of a era. in case you probably did not choose to bypass, you probably did not would desire to. the college district is administered by utilising an ordained minister. in the event that they ever eliminate the pupil's suitable to prayer and placed on crosses, then they are violating the 1st exchange.

Answer 5

i think if you want to worship trolls, then by all means, you should bring it to class. maybe you can spread the troll gospel, too. then again, i'm sure some people would hate you for your religion and maybe even say that trolls don't even exsist and call you stupid for praying to your troll doll and worshiping it. so think long and hard about taking your troll to school with you-you might get persecuted for what you believe, and that's not fun, now is it?

Answer 6

If the troll doll is a symbol of your religion then they can't force you to leave it at home unless they force everyone to leave their religious symbols at home.

Answer 7

I know you are joking... but if you were serious, you could actually do that... your civil rights allow you to display the religious symbol of your choice in public places....as long as you are wearing it on your person.

Answer 8

Because there is no freedom of religion in the US. You should sue the school board for violating your constitutional rights.

BTW, what's a "troll doll"?

Answer 9

Well it's obvious, isn't it - they fear the power of the Troll!

Inspiring idea - might bring my cuddly Shrek into work next week as a mark of my worship of Paraquat the Flatulent, Ogre-God Supreme...

Answer 10

Is it a matter of display, or a matter of being distracted with it. You could probably wear a troll pin or shirt.
