nice post. i agree with your observations. i also like your solution that puts parents back in charge of their kids education.

is it any coincidence that our public schools started going south about the time that prayer was forced out?

It started long before that. Look at this:

1933 - "The first Humanist Manifesto is published. Co-author John Dewey, the noted philosopher and educator, calls for a synthesizing of all religions and "a socialized and cooperative economic order." Co-signer C.F. Potter said in 1930: "Education is thus a most powerful ally of humanism, and every American public school is a school of humanism. What can the theistic Sunday schools, meeting for an hour once a week, teaching only a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day program of humanistic teaching?" -- A History of the New World Order

You know, conservatism is about choice, is it not?

So, if you don't like what's happening in the public schools, take them to private schools.

Am I missing something? Oh wait, you'll start whining about your taxes supporting something or the other. Tough.

Read it again: Tough.

I say if you don't like whats going on in the public schools, get involved and change them! If the atheists and moral relativists were able to change them from what they were, then we should be able to change them back!
