As I said, if you want to indoctrinate your kids, then it isn't education we discuss but something else...

As you live and your children will live in a multi-cultural, multi-religious society, the fact that they don't learn how to deal with it will probably be a problem later in life... (Try to say to your co-worker or supplier that he will go to Hell because he doesn't believe in the same God, and see what happens next)

I know for instance that if another kid had ever tried to speak of Jesus to my kids, I would have sued the school. Proselytism isn't for schools at all!

Oh, but your religion DOES get taught in the shools.

It is the religion of secular humanism.

e.g. Same sex marriage now gets taught in Massachusetts public schools.

Your religion successfully strips Christianity and Judaism from History, literature and civics.

Our children get the bland, dry, lifeless, athiest version of history.

Catholic societies, for example, are always multicultural, we don't need athiest-marxists to establish what multiculturalism is. My church and my social circle is already multicultural and has been for 1900 years.

The first step in setting up schools as centers of indoctrination is to remove logic from the curriculum, as has been done in government schools.

The core of the medieval, Catholic/Christian education was the Trivium: logic, grammar and rhetoric, skills which give children the ability to find truth and analyze subjects critically.

Most certified teachers are unfamiliar with the history of compulsory government schooling. You're not alone.

If I wasn't convinced before this statement, I am now. You are out of your mind.

Sue THE SCHOOL because a KID might speak to your KID about Jesus?

Yeah, that's what this country needs. More lawsuits based upon what children say to one another.
