:: I appreciate the comments above, but in an encyclopedia an exception should not prevent a clear, up-front explanation of a concept.  By the way, I am confident that taxpayer-funded schools do censor classroom prayer in all English-speaking countries, as in the United States and England.  I have yet to see evidence to the contrary.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 12:59, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

::::As I mentioned above, some provinces in Canada fund Catholic schools.  See ''Faith-based schools''<ref>Faith-based schools, By Jennifer Wilson, CBCNews.ca, Updated Sept. 17, 2007 [http://www.cbc.ca/ontariovotes2007/features/features-faith.html]</ref> for a good summary of the government-funded Catholic schools in various provinces in Canada.--[[User:Hsmom|Hsmom]] 19:32, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

:::I think it is possible to write primarily for the American audience (since about 50% of our audience is American) while taking into account other countries and do it in a manner that provides clarity.  For example, in the [[homosexuality]] article I clearly label where things are occuring and while I mention mostly American events I do mention events that have occured overseas. I also have no problem with articles like these:  http://www.conservapedia.com/Homosexual_agenda_in_Scotland  Also, I do cite experts in the United States, Britain, Europe, and India.  Lastly, I did create a space for an article entitled "Homosexuality and Islam" and obviously such an article would cover things that are happening in the Middle East and other Muslim countries.[[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 18:31, 29 October 2007 (EDT)
