as for that extra credit question, if it had to do with knowing background information, then it's not fair; i don't even know that story and i should be given an equal opportunity to get extra credit. but if it was just using the people/objects as examples, then i feel there is nothing wrong with bringing it up.

For the first statement, that's how I've always felt. I'm okay with religion topics in school, as long as you more than one side to the story...but that never happens. I've read that A & E weren't the first people either, so which would I say? [I'm just supporting this claim].

I can't remember so much on the extra credit question, but I had to do the worksheet one, and I didn't do that. My friend didn't leave it blank though, what she did was put something like "This shouldn't be here because there shouldn't be religion brought into school" (something along the lines of that).

And to Brian Lesser, please to explain to me how you have to be mature to respect other people's opinions, and also you have to respect other people's opinions to be mature (I worded it like this because of the fact that w/ "and", both have to be true; correct me if I'm wrong though and I'll edit this).
