For a few years now, I've been urging parents to send their kids to private religious schools and/or homeschool them

What's wrong with private secular schools? This article skates around the premise that one can't be moral or upstanding, or for that matter, patriotic, without being religious.

We do have secular schools....that are called government funded public schools. Secularism is a religion in and of itself....teaching no moral boundaries and worshipping the god of "if it feels good, do it"......which is why we have the mess we are in today.

Private parochial schools have moral boundaries of right/wrong...making it understood that we are accountable to a Creator as well as our community...and are undergirded with the foundation of truth and facts in their education.... not teaching the curriculum the way they'd have "liked" it to have been...IMHO

It's possible for people to be moral, upstanding, and patriotic without being religious. But without the true religion, such people are moral, upstanding, and patriotic without knowing the truth about God. Religion is about knowing, loving, and serving God, not about being moral, upstanding, and patriotic.
