wishful thinking my friend. Only to those that don't care or don't have a vision.
The battle for the hearts and minds of our children begins long before college. The rising numbers of homeschooling families across the nation is evidence enough that people are beginning to reject the status quo in education. It may take time to make a difference, but I've got some time on my hands. How about you? Do you want to make a difference, or are you content in your capitulation to the socialists of the day?

One other note on this.... I went to a top-notch Catholic high school that prided itself highly on how many of the graduates went to top universitities. Although a religious institution, there was never, ever, any consideration about how the college would affect my faith or my moral outlook.
So the high schools, especially the religious ones, need to take a hard look at their own priorities. If my old high school seriously wants to place faith, not money and prestige as its top priority, it needs to be willing to stop recommending students to the Ivy League.
BTW, I can't excuse my actions because of my high school. Like everyone, I set my own priorities. And, like many of us, I've found how shallow those priorities can be without the Lord, my family, and my country at the forefront.

All I am telling you is that most of the people who attend these schools aren't from Conservative Christian families to begin with. That's all.
