Summary

This quote suggests that the act of having Christmas pageants in schools is seen as a means of imposing and promoting Christian religious beliefs on children. The person making this statement, with experience in elementary education, argues that such pageants serve as a way to condition young minds towards this specific religion. The underlying assumption here is that Christmas pageants, often centered around Christian narratives and traditions, do not allow for a diverse representation of beliefs and can potentially overshadow other religious or cultural significance associated with the festivities.

I lay on the bowsprit, with the water foaming into spume under me, the masts with every sail white in the moonlight towering above me. I became drunk with the beauty and singing rhythm of it, and for a moment lost myself- actually lost my life.
