Norway rejects demand for religious tolerance in education

Move over Saudi Arabia, another oil rich kingdom is in the religious discrimination game! The actual document from the UNHRC is here: for a real smile just note the second level sub domain in that URL ... Old One Eye seems to get his hand in everything up North!

The Norwegian government has refused to allow more tolerant religious studies in its education system despite the strong criticism of the country’s rigid religious education curriculum. The Norwegian parliament has rejected the proposal for amending the religious curriculum despite the severe criticism of the current curriculum by the United Nations Human Rights Commission.
