One Response to “All Public Schools are Bad”

   I challenge this man (whose credentials are unknown to me and thus I write this with respect) to tell me where in the bible that all instruction youth are to receive has to have God in it? What is wrong with a young person going to a public school? Where else are they going to to see with their own eyes and hear with their own ears what this world is trying to trap them with if students are not in the world, they will not understand the world, and if they do not understand the world, they will fall prey to its traps. Unless a viewer of this video plans for their child to stay in their house their entire lives and never go out into the world (which is in direct opposition to God’s word in John 17:8-18 and many other verses listed here), they need to not be sheltered from it. Now, I am not proposing that students should be flung to the world’s mercy either. I believe that a child should be allowed to go out into the world, observe, participate in harmless and pure activities, and talk with their parents about what they see. That way, when they leave the home (which they are called upon by God to do eventually (aka marriage)), they will be prepared to face the world and stand firm in their faith and convictions, and not fall to the traps of this world.

   Overall, I also claim that it is the parent’s job to teach their kids their moral system, not leaving it to the school (an extension of the world) to do so. Parental dialogue with their kids is the only proven method of keeping kids on the right track with their Creator. IF the parent(s) are keeping up with their kids, 99.9% of the time the kids will not stray from the right path. And for those of you who are worried about that .01%, those are normally kids who are affected by matters outside of the parents control. This can even happen with a kid kept in the house their entire life.

   Kids are sent to schools to be missionaries? Really? I never knew that! Man, my parents really screwed up that one!

   Being around homosexuals and being forced to be kind to them and respect them as human beings is a bad thing? What happened to love your neighbor as yourself, and Matt. 5:43’s love your enemy?

   Wow. I would like to see his stats on suicide, drug use, abortions, teenage pregnancy, and “become homos.” (<–I love (by which I mean despise) the term “become homos”. He didn’t even give them the respect of their proper name. They are “homosexuals”, you know, human beings, not animals. Sheesh. And “become homos” indicates that he believes that it is a disease that can be caught, or something that is contagious.)I find it interesting that he was trying to indicate that those things were commonplace occurrences among Christian students in public schools.

   I think this should be label dumb people as well as education. But that is just me being an annoyed older teenage boy.

   P.S. Sorry if the tags aren’t working. I wasn’t sure whether or not they would, but I figured I would give them a shot.
