“Or they can homeschool their kids if they don’t like encountering religion in schools. They’re free to do so, just like it’s the option thrown in the face of every Christian parent who objects to the depraved content of public education today.”

Why any Christian would want to leave their children in the socialist government schools is beyond me. These public school pagan indoctrination factories do a great job of converting children from the Christian faith into the secular humanist faith. Wasn’t that always the ultimate intention?

I get tired of hearing my fellow Christians complain about public schooling and then defend sending their children there. Sending one’s children to public schools signifies that one is satisfied with the moral and educational status quo in society at large. Period. If that is indeed the case for the majority of Christians, we may end up one day looking back upon the present as the “good old days” when the executive branch was occupied by the “moderate” Obama and not some open totalitarian socialist leader. Because that is where we seem to be headed.

And shame on any Christian pastor who is “all in” for public schools (the majority of Christian pastors?)- just one more indication that modern churchianity is all about money and zero about preaching the Gospel & truth.

Actions speak louder than words.

I would say that it is not what SEEMS to be happening, but what IS happening.

Homeschooling is a lot of work and way too many people are interested in their easy life to bother with taking the effort even with their own kids. And then they bemoan what happens when their kids go off to college.

What's sown in the wind is reaped in the whirlwind. They have no one but themselves to blame.
