Christians protest every other book used (let's tie everyone up with the evolution-creation debate), blacks think Tom Sawyer is racist, atheists demand Bibles be removed. If the public schools were to address moral/ethics issues some would be suing and outraged because that's a parents job. yadda yadda yaddaI think it's true that there's practically nothing that everyone agrees about. So ask yourself, why is school actually there? Universal, compulsory state-run schooling, I mean. Did somebody get everybody to agree to it? A nationwide agreement on something, for perhaps the only time in American history? Or does school just present itself that way, so that people will cheerlead for it?
"I think it's true that there's practically nothing that everyone agrees about."
That's why we as a Republic have elections and elect people who agree with us and expect to make changes where we don't agree with the existing status.
"compulsory state-run schooling." You can't send your kid to a private school or homeschool?
