Momma B has always taught me that most Houses of Worship, regardless of the actual religion, are supposed to be hospitals for the soul, not museums for saints.

I partially agree. Clearly, students have to pass a test; however, I think the primary goal should be to educate a competent and professional entry level provider. I agree that nobody should take pride in failing students. I know where I teach, we are always nervous during examinations because we want students to succeed. Some of my greatest pleasures as an instructor have been to see struggling students succeed. It is a powerful experience when you are able to make somebody's light bulb turn on so to speak. Take care, chbare.

I will refrain from commenting on the wisdom of such a law, but I will say I'm glad we have our priorities straight. We have no budget, our economy and the housing market are still in the crapper, unemployment is STILL double digits, our national deficit and debt are in the stratosphere, but gays can serve openly in the military. Hoo-friggin-ray! And we wonder why Congress has a single digit approval rating? I shudder to think what the next equally "vital" law that will be passed while Democrats still have control. January 5th cannot get here soon enough.
