Educating children is NEVER, NEVER, NEVER religiously neutral. And,,,that is why government should NEVER be in the education business!

Friendly amendment...

Yesterday, a federal judge ruled against those complaining about the book "King and King".

What would have happened if the judge ruled in favor of the parents objecting to the book "King and King", even though it is OBVIOUS that such a book DOES undermine the religion taught in the home?

Answer: He would have set a precedent that would have destroyed government schooling in the U.S.

It is axiomatic: The education of children is NEVER religiously, politically, or culturally neutral.

Judges do all they can to tap dance around this uncomfortable fact, and do all they can to rule as narrowly as possible to avoid destroying the government K-12 education-industrial-complex.
