No Wirt,
It would be much better to send my children to the
"government" schools, were the only thing they will
learn is tolerance and zero-tolerance.
One could argue, wrongfully so, that our fore fathers
believed in a separation of church and state. But I
know they certainly believed in a separation of school
and state. Or do you really think they would have
sent their children to King George to get an
education?
Sheesh.
