Regardless of your rant, yes our schools are excellent, and I’m confident we’ve made the right decision for our kids.
Try looking at schools outside the urban jungle, and you’ll likely find what we’ve found.
What could possibly be excellent about the following? Please explain this. Specificially (point by point) what is untrue about the following?
**ALL government schools are atheistic and godless in their worldview. All government schools teach children to think godlessly and to evaluate everything in their school day in a godless manner.
** All government schools are a freedom of conscience and First Amendment abomination. All government schools trash the child's ( and indirectly the parent's ) freedom of speech, press, free expression of religion, and assembly. Since it is IMPOSSIBLE for any school to be religiously neutral government schools at the moment are establishing the religious worldview of godless atheism.
** All government schools treat children like prisoners. Children are isolated from the community in buildings that could easily be confused with a minimum security prison. It is the government who determines with whom the will or will not assemble ( a First Amendment violation). The government tells them when they will eat, rest, exercise ( and even dictates acceptable and non-acceptable exercise) and use of the bathroom. Their school buses look like prison work gang buses.
** In many ways the social dysfunction of school gangs and cliques resemble prison protection gangs. Thankfully, humans are adaptable and most adults finally unlearn the socially corrosive survival habits learned in school and do move on to healthy and cooperative relationships in work, family, marriage, with their extended family, and neighbors. Sadly some do not and suffer emotionally and economically all their lives.
**In ALL government schools those Christian teachers who try to sneak in a little Christian philosophy into the godless curriculum are merely teaching the children that Christians are sneaky. Those Christian teachers who do not try to sneak in a little Christianity merely teach the children that Christians are hypocrites who will sell their soul and principles for a paycheck and pension.
**ALL government schools teach socialism. Merely by attending children learn that the government has the power to take money from their neighbor ( by police force if necessary) to pay for a service their parents want for tuition-free. And...Their government indoctrinators teach the children that it is their **right** to have government take money from their neighbor for their schooling. Well!...If the government can take money from a neighbor to pay for tuition-free schools why not a thousand other “free” wants and needs?
** NO government school is religiously, politically, or culturally neutral. This is axiomatic since it is IMPOSSIBLE to have a religiously, politically, or culturally neutral school. No matter what the government chooses to do **ALL** government schools will establish the religion, politics, and culture of some and actively trash that of others.
**Therefore...ALL government schools are a freedom of conscience and First Amendment abomination.
** All government schools forbid free exercise of religious belief, therefore, ALL government schools teach children to compartmentalize their faith into public and private spheres. ALL government schools teach children that religion is somehow shameful and must be hidden as if it were a bathroom activity.
**Since ALL government schools teach children ( who have committed no crime) like prisoners, ALL government schools are teaching children to be good little compliant workers for the fascist state.
Finally,...There are some ways in which prisons are better than government schools. Prison bathrooms are likely to be safer and cleaner than those in a government school, and prisons are far less segregated by race, age, and economic class.
