But in general - science is not liberalism and Christian schools should meet the same academic standards as other schools.

Assuming you mean public schools, why would a private school lower itself to the lowest possible common denominator?

Public schools are enthralled by the likes of the NEA, ACLU and other liberal organization who have openly declared war on Christianity. There's nothing different about Christianity in this country in perhaps over 200 years of it's existence, except perhaps a better understanding of what it takes to be a Christian by today's standards.

That being said, the relationship between the state funded school and the private school should not be altered because of a recently tainted view of Christian education.

I will say it plainly. ANY private Christian school is superior to a public school. There should be no issue here, the only existing issue is one of anti-Christian hatred.

1. The common denominator in question is accreditation and both public and private schools have to meet the same standard, at least in principle.

2. Actually there is an unfortunate trend lately to try to distance Christianity from observable science.

Every Christian school is NOT superior to any public school. That is ridiculous beyond compare. There are thousands of superb public schools throughout the land which are far better than even the best Christian school.
I had children attend both.
