Today we added more to our Europe Map, and then we continued our blog discussions.
- We started off the class period discussing more about gay marriage. We pretty much just reviewed what we talked about yesterday.
- Prayer in school- Republicans believe prayer in school that it should be allowed, but should be voluntary. Democrats are generally against it because they believe religion and state should be seperate. I believe that it should be voluntary, so i'm on the republicans side on this. We learned that you can pray in school, but teachers can not lead them in prayer. People have the right to practice any religion that they want.
- U.S role in the world Iraq- The cause of the war was nuclear. Democratics view that they want combat troops out of Iraq. They want no fighting. Republicans believe that the war was necessary that if we fight them over there they won't come back and fight us on our land. George W. Bush started a surge which is sending more troops over to Iraq.
- U.S role in the world Afghaniston- Republicans started the war in Afghaniston. They believed the war was necesscary. Democrats believe it is very necessary and Obama sent more troops out there. The war in Afghaniston was because of 911.
- U.S role in the United Nations- There is numerous things the United Nations can do. Democrats are for it because they believe helping each other out is better. Republicans mostly want to run things by themselves because if someone doesn't want to do something, we will do it. A lot of United Nations thought that we thought we were better than the other countries so they didn't like Bush.
