Indeed, one thing I don’t quite understand is why do most Christians, who are from Middle America, send their kids to secular public schools instead of creating their own religious schools like the Jews and the Catholics?

Why? For the longest time, Protestant culture was/is the mainstream that was taught in public schools in the first place.

You only need alternate schooling if the mainstream variety doesn't teach what you want it to.

Nowadays, though, it's looking to be more and more necessary for Protestants as well.

They were trapped by the government. They should’ve realized that it was a mistake to rely on the government for their children’s education.
