No, I do not mean school of thought. I mean direct involvement of human
beings connected to Logos school and the local Trinitarians, who are also
involved in Bonham boxing and lacrosse, who use their connections to Logos
and a certain local church, to promote the goals, beliefs or practices that
they want to see promoted in an educational setting. One of these beliefs
appears to limit girls access to boxing and lacrosse. If I am wrong, I
would be glad to be corrected.
Though you may technically be correct in your declaration that the Bonham
boxing and lacrosse clubs are not a formal part of Logos school curriculum,
you are most disingenuous in the rest of your statement that the views of
Trinitarians have nothing to do with the goals, beliefs or practices of
Logos school. Sounds like a lawyer talking. You know full well that Logos
school embodies goals, beliefs or practices that do indeed have connections
to the Trinitarians in Moscow.
You know full well that informally Logos school does have connections to the
Bonham boxing or Lacrosse club. And my charge of sexism still stands
regarding these informal connections to Logos, local Trinitarians, and the
Bonham boxing and lacrosse clubs.
You might answer the question regarding why girls are not allowed to
participate in the Bonham boxing or Lacrosse clubs. If they are allowed to
participate, I stand corrected. Otherwise my observation and commentary
remains the same.
If they want to limit girls access to certain sports, just admit that is
what they are doing, don't hide behind technicalities.
