Paranormal Activity in IPS
I don’t know what rocket scientist came up with this rule in Indianapolis Public Schools, but I can’t think of a better way to get sued and cost the taxpayers thousands of dollars.
According to scienceblogs.com, IPS is blocking atheist websites from its computers; actually its blocking all “alternative spirituality” websites.
Sites that promote and provide information on religions such as Wicca, Witchcraft or Satanism. Occult practices, atheistic views, voodoo rituals or any form of mysticism are represented here. Includes sites that endorse or offer methods, means of instruction, or other resources to affect or influence real events through the use of spells, incantations, curses and magic powers. This category includes sites which discuss or deal with paranormal or unexplained events.
You can read the full rule here . If I were a Wiccan or an atheist I’d be heading off to my attorney to either file a lawsuit or get some clarification because if IPS isn’t going to block sites related to Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Shintoism or Greek or Roman mythology , then I deserve equal access and I’m going to sue until I get it. And If I were an IPS official, I’d start praying now and hopefully to as many members of the pantheon as humanly possible.
