You are ideologically correct in a way. We really have no more right to impose our beliefs than the atheist do to impose theirs on us. That is why we are not saying we want to teach the 4 spiritual laws or the Catholic catechism or the Jewish Talmud in school. The most ideologically pure solution would be to totally abandon the public school system and let every parent decide for themselves how to school their kids. I personally think that would be a wonderful thing and that the taxes saved and the competition created would actually mean most parents could privately educate their kids however they wished and it would be surprisingly affordable.
That being said, it is highly, highly unlikely that is ever going to happen, so it is mandatory that we insist that our children are at least taught the correct, historic foundations so they can properly understand American history, government, politics and economics, and the philosophical/religious foundational beliefs that shaped those events and documents. In other words, teach them the truth, not the liberal fantasy politically correct version of it. Therefore, go back to the original writings, the original historic accounts of events and teach what really happened, follow the train of thought from English Common law, natural Law, Blackstone’s law, the Bible (as far as where it intersected with the founding ideas of our government,history of the Pilgrim’s and Puritans, etc.) As someone mentioned, there is a ton of good stuff at David Barton’s site, go to the National Center for Constitutional Studies, Foundation for American Christian Education (5000 Year Leap), etc
Nice to see that someone agrees with me, even if it's only in principle!

Probably not in our lifetime, but I have hope for our grandchildren if we start laying the philosophical groundwork now...
