I hope they are as sensible as you! They wouldn’t happen to be single?

I see a huge migration to Texas at the rate things are going in the blue & purple states.

It's a shame. There are a lot of good people in Illinois. But at the same time it seems too many of them have been beaten into submission, so much that they won't even consider things like this to be a threat to liberty.

The last thing Texas needs is a bunch of blue state refugees coming down here to make the same mistakes that ruined their previous home states. But that's what zombies do.

Home-schooled students must receive an education equivalent to public schooling, according to current Illinois state law.

No problem.

Just teach your kids a couple new swear words or combinations each day; teach them how to put a condom on a banana; teach them a new perversion each week and call it a legitimate form of love; teach them to pray in Arabic; read Karl Marx to them and call America a racist death camp; beat them up once in awhile and, finally, mug them for their pocket change.

No problem - education equivalent to public schools.

Tennessee is beautiful! I’ve always liked that state, but then I am partial to the southern states.

I agree...

Proverbs 1:7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

Proverbs 2:6 For the Lord gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

Proverbs 9:10 “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”

If we believe Scripture then is sounds like we cannot even start gaining wisdom and knowledge apart from God. There is no way that the public schools can teach true wisdom and knowledge.

I finished watching “Agenda” last night and you are correct. Everybody should see this documentary. I watched everything on the DVD...the program and all of the extras (Reagan's speech was great). Stayed up until 3:00AM...

A thought that crossed my mind after watching the DVD was that I should invite friends over to watch “Agenda” and then follow it with “Demographic Winter”...I would think that a lot of what is happening would become clear in peoples minds.

God bless

I really hope more FReepers see the DVD and have watch parties with other like-minded friends.

Don’t expect many leftists to “see the light”, though.
As one Amazon reviewer stated, after he showed it to some young people and leftist teachers, they were angry at him and told him they DIDN’T WANT the traditional America that the movie was trying to defend. They wanted the “change” promised by socialism.

“some young people and leftist teachers,”

And there in lies the reason that NO Christian family should send their children to public school.

God bless
