Home schooling is the only reliable (large scale) way to insure that good kids stay that way.

I completely agree!

I can't find the link but the stats for homeschoolers remaining steadfast in their faith is just the opposite. 95% are active in their faith two years after high school.

Also...We should disabuse ourselves of the idea that parents have time to “deprogram” their kids. Let's look at the daily life of a child:

1) They must sleep 9 to 11 hours a night.

2) Time outside to freely play ( 1 to 3 hours). Often this is in the company of secular humanist neighbor children.

3) They wait at school bus stops and travel to from school for 1 to 2 or more hours a day. ( An atheistic secular environment)

4) We can fully discount the time spent in the morning rush to get to the bus stop on time. Once there, they associate with kids with secular values.

5) There is secular school homework ( 30 minutes to a half hour for younger children and several hours for older children.)

6) Time for the child to “socialize” with secular humanist friends via cell phone and Internet. ( 30 minutes to hour)

7) And....Maybe the kid would just like to relax with a secular humanist TV program. If adults would like time to relax with a TV program why wouldn't a kid? ( 30 minutes to hour)

8) There are after-school practices with sports, theater, and other clubs. ( 1 to 2 hours)

9) Time spent with secular humanist kids in non-school activities ( soccer, karate, or dance) ( 1 to 5 or more hours a week).

So??....Add it up. When and how can parents have the time to overcome the influence of the atheistic, secular humanist, Marxist government k-12 school? It's almost a lost cause. This is especially true if it is a single parent home.

I think maybe you overlook the effect of the courts on schools. I attended HS in NYC [quite a while ago] and before every assembly we saluted the flag and read from the Bible usually the 23rd Psalm. If a school tried that today they would be slapped with a law suit. Even student speech at graduations is dampened. School administrators can't spend their time defending lawsuits so out goes anything that has religion because it offends someone - separation of Church and State, you know.

The country is not slouching toward Gemorrah any longer, it is speeding. The Constitution has been turned on its ear. Instead of protecting religion from government, it is protecting government from religion.
