Even though I agree with the status of public schools, I don't think Christians who send their kids to public schools are sinning - I think it is out of years of conditioning and ignorance rather than disobedience to God.

During the years of the Ottoman empire, Serbian subjects saw their sons conscripted into the ranks of the slave armies that ran the empire. Today's parents may believe they have no choice but to comply with the forced levy of the State. They have far less excuse for believing this than the Serbs.

The future of this country will either be shaped by the Statist T&G ("talented and gifted") janissaries, or by free thinkers raised in Christian homes.

If the Status were so talented and gifted, why would they
have to resort to deviousness, evil acts, and controlling
mind games?
We call them the status quo.
Holding on to power or wealth without merit is where their
evil comes from.
Personally, I believe that the free thinkers are the ones
that are talented and gifted.
Free thinkers need to use their talents for good and not evil.
Since man has many problems discerning between good and
evil he must rely on the word of GOD for guidance.
