I had forgotten your stories about then when I wrote my post in #100.

As I have said over and over, no one method of education, religion, or lifestyle is pure and above reproach. If one condemns one method because of the mistakes of the minority, then it becomes fair game to do the same to another method because of the mistakes of their minority.

The facts is that our culture is corrupt. Evil surrounds us because Satan wants to lead everyone to follow his damnation. People search for truth and refuse the truth and embrace something that feels good that moment. These boys committed this act on a public school bus, but they did not learn it is okay to committ fellatio on another nor to force it from the schools. They learned it from their culture and the environment their parents allowed them to steep in. There may be an immediate answer to bus problems, in terms of requiring 1 or even 2 assistants but that doesn't address the heart of corruption. A parent can home school or private school(and in some cases they SHOULD) but that doesn't address the corruption of our society.

I have to respect Patrick Henry College in Virginia. Their mission is to place Christians into the public service arena. Many of their kids were schooled in an alternative method. PHC's goal is to eventually have enough of their graduates to affect policy and make a change. I admire that. That is proactive and begins to address the problem. I graduated from Bob Jones University, another Christian institution. I see my work in public schools as a reason to be an up-standing person of character who is there to make a difference. Others pooh pooh it, but let 'em. If I believe that I am doing God's work, then others that mock me are of no importance and just don't register on my radar screen.

These boys committed an evil, EVIL act and while they should be punished, I hope that someone close to them is able to show them another path - one that eventually leads to decency rather than an orange prison suit.
