218. That violates seperation of church and state and the teacher wasn't their parent.
In some parts of Africa the tribes still practice scarification and facial tattoos. A child is held down and his face and chest repeatedly cut with a broken shard of glass to produce a pattern. A teenage girl must lay still as she's stabbed in the face repeatedly with a thorn to produce the Tattoo. With the facial tattoos the must chose to get the tattoo. But the scarification of the males is mandatory. If you don't have the marks you are not a member of the tribe. You do not live in their village. You do not eat their food. You are not protected by their Gods. If these people move here to the USA. Do they have to leave their old world religion and traditions behind? No they do not.
