Dear Joe,
I am more than familiar with the Catholic School education. And the bullying that went on in those institutions was horrendous. It was enough to turn anybody away from religion. I managed to survive the experience thanks to being transferred elsewhere by my wise parents and as a result I managed to retain my religious beliefs. My husband was raised under the Christian Brothers system - he's a different case altogether. My father was raised by Jesuits. But enough said. I stated earlier that bullying is an existing problem and it can be solved depending on the hierarchy within the institution and the people involved. Looking always at kids in a negative light rather than having grass roots programs designed to work with the kids is not going to be successful. You needs kids to feel connected with the schools and the teachers. If you run programs that don't connect with the kids that's when you're going to get problems.

Remember the movie Babe, sheep dogs in the movie were saying 'sheep were really very dumb'.
Sheep have an instinct to huddle together, that I have heard a theory that sheep on the outside are more likely to be attacked by predatory animals. Government childcare government appointed experts supporting women going to work, that paid child carers will take care of children, I am suggesting like sheep, keeping children together in early age childcare, young children are going to experience: conflict; jealousy; trying to dominate weak looking children; being bullied by stronger children... child carers are too busy to notice, and/or more concerned about keeping child numbers being cared for high, that a viable childcare business greatly depends on numbers. Crying, noisy, running around children does something to other children in care. Like brothers and sisters not liking each other, that two is company, three is a crowd, like sheep, children can be expected to get dumber due to constant movement from many children will overload visual and listening memory, confusing memory ability to select worthy to remember knowledge, example, like watching pointless to think, fast moving, shifting scenes Hollywood movies... that increasing numbers of children huddling in a group, future psychological problems and/or thinking dumbness, poor academic learning progress should be expected. I heard a quick suggestion by a female who could have been thought of as a child carer during a Malcolm Turnbull childcare news clip, saying 'calming children, keeping children calm while children are in childcare is a good thing' maybe one of a few benefits to children.

Friday March 24, The Drum host began by saying, “is it time to ditch all teaching of religion in schools and instead teach children ethics”.
http://www.smh.com.au/comment/parents-need-all-the-options-before-deciding-on-religious-education-at-school-20170306-gurs1w.html Between quest speakers personal opinions, which personal enjoyment opinions favouring religion can be lies in support/instructed by a paid by establishment propaganda spin expert to manipulate listeners decisions towards favouring choosing one of several religions, that listeners generally listen for simple quick to the point conclusions from smooth soothing voice and intelligent sounding people. Asking an ethical person to draft out teacher reading material to be taught to children, some religious person or education department curriculum lesson drafter is given the task, whom sabotages reading material so teachers and parents will complain what difficult to comprehend non-religious ethical teachings are being taught, persuading all concerned to return to religious based ethical teaching. It seems religions are attempting to monopolise teaching ethics in schools. Religions I speculate, are constantly falling back to paragraphs in the bible supposedly formulated 1500 years ago by self-interested self-appointed (second (or further down the birthright trail) in line to have inherited wealth aristocrat) having turned themselves into awe inspiring looking cardinals in some large gathering. Translating Latin into Greek, into old English, into modern English or not. My speculation here is that shifting between talking about ethics and reading out bible paragraphs to justify where ethical information came from, that god is party responsible, sudden shifting from bible paragraphs to ethical readings interrupts listeners thought process flow. Which in itself is unethical. I have not yet watched one episode of channel Ten's “Bull” yet as shown in promotional adverts, Bull manipulates juries to favour his clients... yet realising Bull on listening to media news, you can't really believe free speech in a society where school education and media influences human behaviours is real freedom of thought not being influenced by media simple one line analogies verse complex boring discussions, free speech. Likened to post Brexit and Donald Trump winning the presidential election analogies, say simple statements, make promises difficult to achieve... majority voters vote for the simplest emotion words provide.

Where I maybe accused of rambling on, I try to gather ideas to formulate new relevant ideas, compared to other posters. That most posters have short one line comments, I suggest an education which required limited complex answers to even less complex questions, that: hurrying; easily distracted towards fun; crushed child curiosity; an emotional desire to quickly judge, rather than analyse; some winning instinct to have the last word; that any person who doesn't follow the group's “group thought” are outsiders.
I speculate many people's depth in thought is so shallow, curios to listen people listening to one on one debate hear (anticipating getting emotionally stimulated) favour backing a winner, the loudest bully of a two person argument, that generally a debate turns to louder bullying personal attack on a weaker debater, that many people hearing bullying feel the bully is the better debater, choosing to feel the bully won the debate. The spirit of bully competition felt inside and outside classrooms were the few inspiring in taking notice curiosity traumatised by academic learning children could enjoy. Federal Parliament question time, has prime minister and front bench ministers standing up on an asked questions, leading answers to bullying members of the opposition. A society of badly educated citizenry many of whom may ignore much of this performance, fail to openly criticise government, nor does any mainstream media criticise bullying performances. Religions teaching ethics Catholic school priests culture of child molesting, is a case of “do what I say, don't do what I do”. Emotional reward to feel superior to that of others “narcissism” a bunch of priests standing in front of: a congregation; classroom of boys... the feeling of words flowing out of subconscious memory into spoken words, euphoria of respect and influential power over a group of people and/or bullied to be obedient to authority children. The pleasure of getting away with sin and sinful thoughts, increased by bullying young school boys. Posted by steve101, Saturday, 25 March 2017 3:00:26 PM

How can any listener understand deep ethical concepts if presenters shift between one line statements to stated bible paragraphs. That having previously mentioned media news presenter's rolled over short stories one after the other, any time to consider depth in stories is like shifting from simple ethical beliefs to bible unclear statements needing further clarification.
School students copying from chalkboards, students can only remember short sentences before writing down short sentences into textbooks keeping spelt words spelt correctly. That the idea of comprehension while reading from chalkboards slows down the progress in the task of copy readings into textbooks, which students constantly realised, punishes any incentive to comprehend knowledge, that being if there were any knowledge worth comprehending. That having copied down chalkboard text, students intended to read textbooks within one week before examinations, only to remember: people names; place names; dates; anything that believed maybe asked in A to F examination questions. That asking students to analyse Shakespeare: love; greed; jealousy; suicide; desires to murder... comprehending old English phrases further punishes instinctive incentives to comprehend any depth in reading material. That most readers are merely desiring some quick judgement to justify their own delusion of quick to judge intelligence. I theorise that sending children to school too early, that young children would be better of kept calm and separate from other children. That children merely experiencing everyday communication one on one with responsible parents, children build awareness to ethical behaviours. As children slowly consider the value of information, comprehending depth, that alternatively, if no increase in awareness fails to inspire thought, children may not mature into responsible adults.

The process of cell DNA to unravel 2-metres of DNA within small cells to be correctly read by organisms unknown by science means, to create and nourish life. The lack of knowledge “we (scientists) don't know” is like religion, no ideas: where god is; what god is; how god creates magic; whether religious leaders can actually communicate with and/or influence god, in English and/or Latin; there is so much missing information, believers are left to believe by mere faith in their emotional intelligence. To believe in faith is teaching children through to adulthood to be stupid, that fear of bullying authority teachers and/or nuns and priests, childhood emotional fear fight or flight bullying influences human beliefs, humans kept stupid by believing unproven behind closed doors lies. That DNA news fact stories is one fake lie media promote to aid one more unproven lie among many unproven, at best seen from a far away distance stories. That many fictional dramas quote unseen evidence DNA keeping DNA myths appearingly real, that the establishment are amusing themselves by citizenry being bullied into stupid intelligence, that citizenry are so easily believing what they're told, having no explained evidence to what's being presented.
