Indeed! The very foundation is rotten.
Government schooling's very foundation is a socialist-funded, single-payer, compulsory-use, and godless entitlement. How can that be fixed? It can't.
Actually, I do support conservatives running for school board if their sole purpose is to abolish the government schools.
And...I support Christian teachers working in the government school **if** at absolutely every opportunity they warn their students, the parents, and their neighbors about the evils of socialist, single-payer, and godless schooling. Of course they may be fired before the school year but that would be “doing something”.
By the way.....At their very best government schooling **forced** a generic and lukewarm Protestantism on their captives. They gradually deteriorated until, by the 50s and 60s they were merely nodding on occasion in the direction of God.
What does Christ do with the lukewarm? He spits them out of His mouth!
Is there any example of Christ using the threat of armed Roman guard action to herd captive children into buildings so His message could be **forced** upon them? No.
A religiously neutral education is impossible and government schools **always** have, are now, and always will, be using tax funds ( collected under the threat of force) to promote the religious worldview of the most politically powerful ( today, godlessness).
How do you think Jesus feels about you bearing false witness?
Sspecifically, when were you or your children placed in jail or taken in custody while you were homeschooling?
Failure to reply with anything other than an exact date will be viewed as an admission that you have been caught in another of your lies.
Agreed.
I do not understand the mind processes of these ardent government school defenders who can sometimes be found in other threads attacking single payer socialized healthcare and big government in general. Socialism is the political expression of the secular humanist religion. Government schools are secular humanist institutions which are, according to the Barna surveys, quite effective in converting children away from the Christianity of their parents.
