faith-based


a politically correct way of saying that the government is going to give tax-payer’s money to religious groups so they can use it to persue their religious agenda.

‘faith-based initiative’ sounds less threatening than ‘religious school’ and so is less likely to scare people. this phrase is increasingly being used in the us and the uk.
tony blair: i think faith-based schools will benefit our children.
journalist: so you’re saying that you want to let religious organisations educate our children so they can learn that evolution and creationism are equally valid?
tony blair: they will receive a balanced education.
journalist: so it’s okay for children to be taught to doubt evolution and consider the earth to have been created within the last 10,000 years by a god? all this at the tax-payer’s expense.
tony blair: next question please.
