All you have said is true. And I completely agree. But it is important for children to know that this country was founded as one nation, under God. God is as much a part of our history as is anything else. And to eliminate the refernce to such would be to deny them a fair and accurate potrayal of our country. I think it's just sad when the majority has to suffer for the ignorance and intolerance of a few.
Our government is incapable of teaching our children anything of import. The public schools are full of people pushing agendas and not teaching schools.
I am 64 years old and I have two children, ages 6 and twelve. I do not trust the government to teach either of them. I will teach them history as I was fortunate to be taught and I will help guide them in their religious beliefs if they so choose.
Our government is broken and corrupt and it will not get any better until the people of this nation stand up to the tyranny that has embraced our land.
