1) existe (?) traduccion al castellano de su primer módulo<br>
2) esta organizacion está siendo investigada en USA por el IRS por
enriquecimiento ilicito, y se indica están cortando programas allí<br>
3) su contenido es (era?) generado por una organización dedicada a
Cábala, y su expresión respecto a "no ser religioso" es debatible, y
discutida por la prensa de Los Angeles, sede de la organización<br>

mi opinión: creo en la necesidad de libertad de religión, y ello
debe existir en la educación (sí, sé que en UY nos damos de laica,
etc.). En ese sentido, SFK, en mi opinión, tiene derecho a existir,
pero me apena que sea tal vez la única ASLO con contenido de
religión. De paso, una visión *atea* no es laica, también es una
postura religiosa, y no tiene mayor motivo de ser auspiciada por
Sugar que los otros.<br>

<div dir="ltr">My feeling on this is that religious instruction,
presented as such, is OK. Presented as something else it isn't.
Sometimes there is a gray area. For instance, hatha yoga can be
taught as a religious practice and also as a system of exercises
with no mention of the original purpose of the exercises. I
think this Spirituality For Kids crosses the line. Teaching kids
that they have a light inside them and that they need to listen
to a True Voice is what a Vaishnava would call Mayavadi
philosophy; the idea that all souls are part of God and that
self realization is to merge into God, etc. While some Hindu
traditions teach this, others would considers these beliefs
morally repugnant. Going back to hatha yoga, a Christian would
be offended if his child is taught anything but exercises, and a
Hindu would be offended if his child is not taught something
besides exercises.

<div>Between Get Books and Read Etexts and the Browse Activities
a child wishing to study his own religion or others has a
wealth of material to look at. Personally I'd leave it at
that. Sword is OK, and if there is something for studying the
Koran that's OK too. If I could figure out how a Python
program could make studying the Gita easier or more enjoyable
I'd write one.</div>

<div>But Spirituality For Kids is different. It teaches kids
religious beliefs while pretending to do something else. That
kind of thing can only lead to trouble.</div>
