All sin is an offense and disobedience against God. There is no such thing as a "good sin." However, each sin has a greater or lesser "offense value." If I steal a quarter from you, it doesn't have the same "offense value" as the sin of abortion. Public schools in and of themselves are in no way, shape or form the moral equivalents of abortuaries.

Theft may not have the same "offense value" as Murder, but they're both on the Big Ten.
We dare not lose our sense of Moral Horror at the idea that Stealing from the citizenry to support compulsory Government Schools, is somehow NOT a grave crime against God.

How about the internet? One can't say that the internet is satanic because it can give access to satanic things. There are also good and even holy things to be accessed on the net.

All sought out voluntarily, without Government compulsion, and without being funded by Theft.
I'm not forced to subsidize it, as I am the Government Schools.

In other words, there are things that are intrinsically evil, e.g., satanic or pornographic websites and abortuaries, and things that can be used for good or misused for bad, e.g., the internet or public schools.

No. This is still incorrect.

Public Schools are intrinsically evil, because they are funded by Theft. Period.
Their very existence violates and profanes the Eighth Commandment.

And the greatest thefts of all are the hearts and minds of our children. The most common and iterative lesson K-12? is FREE LUNCH. Government Schools are socialist factories turning out socialists. They have been fantastically successful.

2 Peter 2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

Sorry I didn’t see your post sooner.

Well, if this issue is seen in the way you’re saying, then ALL government is intrinsically evil because it is funded by theft.
