Axiom:
All schools must restrict free speech, press, assembly, and establishment and expression of religion. If they didn’t chaos would run wild.

Axiom:
It is impossible for any school to be religiously, culturally, and politically neutral. Such a philosophic state of neutrality is impossible in the mind of any sentient human.

It is for this reason government schooling is unconstitutional.

Your axioms are just plain incorrect. They aren't based upon anything other than your mandated opinion. If you want to continue with this tact, back up your argument with a logical progression of facts and some scholarly writings.

Go read material on this subject as written by the Founders. They made a lot of sense. Let me give you some samples:

Above all things I hope the education of the common people will be attended to, convinced that on their good sense we may rely with the most security for the preservation of a due degree of liberty.
—Thomas Jefferson

I know of no safe repository for the ultimate powers of society but the people themselves and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to increase their discretion by education.
—Thomas Jefferson

If the children are untaught, their ignorance and vices will in future life cost us much dearer in their consequences than it would have done in their correction by a good education.
—Thomas Jefferson

The tax which will be paid for the purpose of education is not more than the thousandth part of what will be paid to kings, priests and nobles who will rise up among us if we leave the people in ignorance.
—Thomas Jefferson

There are MANY more where these come from. Similar quotes from Franklin, Madison, and others are recorded. This is all fundamental to a prosperous and safe society.

Prove this point with appropriate references and a logical progression of thought. I disagree with the statement, regarding it as false.

You make statements, with no grounds for validity. These are not educated opinions, merely musings of an outsider of society.
