The sadness in your heart seeps through your post.

Studies show that 85% of children from **active** evangelical homes are not active in their faith 2 years after finishing high school. In contrast, 95% of homeschoolers are active in the Faith of their Father within 2 years of finishing high school.

In my opinion our nation's godless system of government schools and collectivist temples of Secularism is absolutely our nation's greatest long term threat. As a nation we can overcome almost anything if we as a people are well grounded in our Judeo Christian values. But...A weak and spiritually soft nation will crumble.

I am very distressed that other conservatives fail to see the urgency and importance of shutting down the godless collectivist government temples of ignorance ( misnamed “schools”). I am profoundly worried that other conservatives do not share my concern that we must give every child in this nation the opportunity for a truly Judeo-Christian based education that upholds our nation's founding principles.

Our education system began with the purpose of teaching children to read the Bible in Latin,Greek, and oftentimes in Hebrew—Entering College— or the University they were required to know Greek enough to translate some of the classical ,secular works—and/or the Bible. The purpose was to train up men as capable of leading a church as a business.
the idea of teaching mans duty to God —and to their fellow man was written in their charters and goals-and students expected to be able to give a ready defense at any time.
The twice passed Northwest Ordinance did not separate nor discriminate against Religion,Morality,or Knowledge but declared all three necessary to good government,and the happiness of mankind.None of this I learned when a ward of the public school system.However much time God gives me to
speak—I will speak Until we the American people start talking to each other and determine we will NO longer be silent—the enemy will win in America.I pray for anew awakening -and that God will find me a worthy voice to speak HIS Gospel.
