The couple fled to Tennessee so they could home-school their five children, which is illegal in Germany.<br /> <br /> Most asylum seekers in the US tend to flee wars or dictatorships, but one German family moved to the American South in 2008 because they believed they were being persecuted for their religious beliefs. On Tuesday an immigration judge in Tennessee agreed, and granted them political asylum.</blockquote><br /> The article asks: "Religious persecution?". I say darned straight. I had been following this story and felt really bad for the parents who simply wanted to prevent their children from being indoctrinated by European secular socialist values. I concur 100%.<br /> <br /> (H/T to <a href="http://darwincatholic.blogspot.com/2010/02/german-family-receives-policital-asylum.html">Darwin Catholic</a>) 2010-03-03T20:57:37+00:00
