You are calling me vicious and you are asking me, “What personal insults?” Really? Unbelievable!
It is amazing how quickly government school defenders descend to personal insult.
So?...Maybe I can help you. Rather than calling me vicious you could explain the following:
** How can a school be simultaneously both God-centered and godless? How could either worldview be religiously neutral in content or consequences. ( You have not addressed this except for ordering me, in the imperative voice, to “dial it down”.)
** How can we as a nation defend teaching our children to think godlessly?
** How, as a nation, can we defend teaching children to be comfortable with socialism? Government schooling is a socialist funded service. The very definition of socialism is that funds are collected from one’s neighbor by threat of armed police action. ( Real bullets in those guns on the hip.)
** Godless and socialist government schools are compulsory for all those who can not find or fund an alternative. Is this not true? Is is not true that “compulsory” means the threat of police force?
**Is it inappropriate to use the words “jizya” and ransom? I certainly don't think so. Unless a parent ransoms their child from the government godless and socialist schooling there will be police action if the parent refuses.
** Am I wrong that government is running a price-fixed cartel monopoly that discourages business from running private alternatives? ( In my county there are NO private alternatives except for homeschooling.)
Ok... You claim to have done OK in government schooling. Since you claim to have done OK under this non-stop godlessness and socialist funded “schooling”, does your unique personal opinion justify subjecting other people's children to a godless and socialist curriculum ( under police threat) or forcing other citizens ( under police threat) to pay for the establishment of government godlessness and helping other people's children to be comfortable with socialism?
Rather than address the issues I have posted, you have personally insulted me by stating that I am somehow too dialed up, never buy anything, and never leave the house. And...You have called me “vicious”.
*I’m not a public school defender. Never said I was. Just said that all of them aren’t bad and people calling other people monsters (wait, is that insulting someone else? I believe it is), are wrong in doing so.
*Ok, explain.
*I never said that Public Schools are God Centered. Therefore I do not care what you do with your kids. If you feel that your public school pushes Godlessness on your kids. Then by all means. Get them out. My public school did not push that on me. In fact, many teachers were Christians and I was able to form meaningful relationships with them. Of course, the majority of Public Schools are not God Centered, with even some pushing the Anti-God movement. I’ll I’m saying is that they aren’t all like that.
It’s no different than Cable TV. In no way shape or form is that “God Centered”, but yet real Christians watch it. They find good things on TV that are appropriate. Just like you can find good schools and good teachers in Public schools. Most of its junk (public schools and TV) but there are a few good things. That’s all I’m saying.
*Our nation will teach kids Godlessness no matter if there is a public school or not. My personal opinion is that the buck stops with the parents. If they don’t instill respect and a Godly character then it doesn’t matter if your homeschooled, public school, or private school. You’re done.
* I never said I was for forcing kids go to public school. Not my argument. You must be talking to someone else.

*I did go to public school, and I am FINE. Not OK, FINE. You don’t listen to a word I’m saying. You hear what you want to hear. You can’t stand that someone did alright going through Public school. Well, I’m sorry to let you down, but a lot of people made it through public school. They actually are doing very well right now too. I never ever stated I was for forcing kids to go to public school (DO YOU READ THIS?). I also never said I’m for parents, who are homeschooling or sending their kid to Private schools, being forced to pay taxes to their public school (DO YOU READ THIS?) I’m sorry that you are around schools that must absolutely be horrible. Luckily I am not. God has provided a Public education path that had many Christian teachers and leaders along the way. The same way he has provided Christian Teachers and Leaders throughout the public school system.
I’ve addressed the issues you’ve posted. Multiple times I had to shake my head. I mean seriously. I can only say, so many times, that I’m not for the Public school system. It’s broken. I only was saying that every single public school is not the horror show you make it out to be and that SOME kids that go to these schools come out alright.
