It would be a hell of a lot more startling if the government weren't concerned that 9 children are being brought up to sit around and do sod all bar sing in church all day. I can't think Jesus would approve; after all he had a job to fall back onto if the preaching gig didn't work out!Helen Lashbrookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14806155400041511316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-16229028952600689132015-11-04T05:53:12.368-05:002015-11-04T05:53:12.368-05:00In some ways, I have the same feeling for the loca...In some ways, I have the same feeling for the local church-lead schools in our area. My town is small and we have two grade schools, the "public" and the "Lutheran". I got to wondering, after I heard some schools (probably in Texas) were teaching that people and dinosaurs existed at the same time, what our local kids were learning, or not learning, as the case may be. I was speechless (it was only momentary, I assure you!)to find the kids I work with that went to that school never learned about Darwin and evolution and a whole myriad of subjects. How are they supposed to compete when they get into college and they don't understand what the professor is talking about, if they don't have a foundation to work from? It saddens me.

In my opinion, the judge should have thrown the case out and ordered the children to be registered at a public school and to be supervised by Children's Protective Services. (I don't know if this is "keeping it civil" like you requested, but this case helps me understand how Bush got to be Texas Governor.)Tonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05187611054293001721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-36430307914576371382015-11-03T16:17:33.785-05:002015-11-03T16:17:33.785-05:00wa state has great homeschooling rules including
