“If I see that a madman is driving a car into a group of innocent bystanders, then I can’t as Christian simply wait, comfort the wounded and bury the dead. I must try to wrest the steering wheel out of the hands of the madman.”

I remember that very well. When Bonhoeffer was speaking it was as if he had received a copy of Obama’s speech before he gave his, as his words were very prescient.
It was a result of watching the prayer breakfast speech that I became interested in the Bonhoeffer book

Homeschooling related bump with some interesting history about the need and eventual prohibition of homeschooling in early 20th century Germany.

Metaxas was speaking, not Bonhoeffer.

>>Paula Bonhoeffer saw the risks of educating her small, impressionable children in the state’s schools.<<
Nazi history is repeating itself in Biden’s America.

The film BONHOEFFER: AGENT OF GRACE failed to present Bonhoeffer as a Biblical strict constructionist and one who despised liberal theology. Likewise, the film I saw about Sophie Scholl downplayed her Christian faith. Filmmakers like to present these Christians as cool and trendy instead of who they really were.

“The first step to restore education freedom and empower parents with choice and opportunity for their children is to eliminate compulsory schooling laws that authorize state control of education. States could still require cities and towns to provide public schools to those who want them, but the power to compel parents to send their children there would disappear. Vouchers for parents who want structured education for their children but NOT the commie/sexual weirdo crap we have today - would be a nice step in the right direction.

Thanks.
I will have to ping it out later. My monitor died so I can’t use my main computer for posting, which has all my files on it and therefore can’t access my list. That should be resolved by tomorrow.

Took the hint and did a search on Eric Metaxis’ remarks at the Prayer Breakfast. Interesting results, have to go back for more study.
Thank You for the tip.
