"It's the paedobaptist faiths that create parochial schools to raise their children in the faith they value more than life itself. It is the anabaptist faiths that outsource their children's minds to statist schools."

Paedobaptist/Anabaptist? What are they and what is the difference between them? You're talking to a layman here.

Paedobaptists -- baptize the infant children of the faithful.

Anabaptists -- hold infant baptism in contempt, insist on "believer's baptism," even of those who were already baptized. While disparaging "ritualism," most anabaptists have a rigidly choreographed procedure that excells at making false conversions. You walk down the aisle in response to very sophisticated manipulation, fill out the record form, get dunked, then resume living like you did before. Such is the case all too often, anyways!
