If you think non-theistic science is so fine, then fund your own private schools so as to keep out the superstitious riff raff and keep your children pure from what you believe to be academically inferior teaching. ( Fester Chugabrew)

To Fester Chugabrew,

Any government powerful enough to allow and force upon resistant children a religious worldview is powerful enough to force a secular, atheistic, or non-theistic agenda on your children.

Solution: Get rid of government schools! They are a monstrosity. They are tyranny and do not allow freedom of conscience.

You are right. Government has no business in the education business. Government funded education can only produce mediocrity if it is to accomodate the public while maintaining religious "indifference". Government funded education with non-theistic principles established by law can only produce mendacity. It's suicidal to make non-theistic principles the law of the land in any endeavor. As long as government takes up authority and expertise for itself in the field of education it must, by law, allow for a plethora of pluralistic thought, both religious and irreligious. Yuck.
