Way back in the 70s my wife, a beginning schoolteacher and I determined that public school was a waste of children’s and parents time. Since then I, at least, have come to regard placing one’s child in public school by an aware parent is prima facie child abuse.

Couldn't agree more.

I guess team sports are more important than their children's soul and our nation's freedom.

You will see that starting at noon EST today...it has always blown me away to see how obsessed many Christians and conservatives are with college football.

Care to explain the passion that your lot has for it as well.

The Denver Broncos’ offseason just started, but their star quarterback Tim Tebow is already back in the news. Legislators in Virginia and several other states are considering proposals to allow homeschooled students to play high school sports at local public schools. Called Tebow laws, they are the same kind of rules that allowed their homeschooled namesake to play high school football in Florida long before he joined the NFL.

RE: Romney.

Yes, it’s sad we lost him. I believe he was going to be great for education.

As it is, fight Common Core Curriculum when you can. Romney said he was going to fight it, and that he believed in local control.

Islamic marketing is going to be increasingly common. (See CSCOPE in Texas.)

I’d like to suggest a simple way to deal with this. Insist that all religions be treated equally, thus no more space or time to Islam than to Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, etc,

That’s fair, and consistent with all ACLU lawsuits.

While my posting style is different

Yes or no does his/her "style" do more harm or good to your cause?

Metmom I noticed that you have failed to answer a direct question. Since you previously had no trouble defending him/her and since this question was about his/her "style" we all know the answer. I think it is very interesting that wintertime apparently doesn't care about the harm he/she is doing to your cause.

Let me know how that works out for you all.
