Would he have been willing to pay taxes by threat of force for a school that taught abolition of slavery?

False. Landlords include the cost of property taxes in the rents they charge.

No, the very idea of compulsory attendance and compulsory payment for government schools is collectivist-statist (communist).

I will repeat myself, because you don’t seem to get it.
The very idea of a compulsory attendance law and a compulsory payment for government school collectives is collectivist-statist (communist).
The government schools are staffed mostly by union hacks who are mostly communist ideologues.
The United States is not now, and perhaps never was, a homogeneous society where everybody shares the same moral, religious, and political compass.
Forcing people to pay for government school collectives that violate their principles in these matters is communistic.
ok - you know it all.
