Not only no, but Hell No. They don't, for example, have a "God-given right" to decide that their children need to be educated as terrorists.

Thanks. Tells me all I need to know about you. You might be more comfortable living in Cuba or China where kids are wards of the state.

Parents do have a God-given right to raise and educate their child according to their own standards. The government schools--which are relics of the 19th century--should be abolished.

LOL! And if those standards include, say, indoctrination in terrorism tactics or the violent overthrow of the U.S. government, you'd be fine with that. Right?

Well, I doubt you really believe that, except as a ranting point. Then again, you seem unable to step back from your ideology, even when it takes you to insane conclusions -- so perhaps you wouldn't even grant the reasonable proposition that the aforementioned "standards" are not acceptable.

The problem is, you're asserting a "right," but ducking the responsibility that goes with it. Which tells me all I need to know about you.
