You need to read what I wrote not what you wanted to hear.  chip on your shoulder ?

You pick the best school in the area. Where I live Catholic schools out preform the rest in k-8.

I am not catholic. I just send my kid to the best school. When he gets to high School he will probably go to public school or Mercersburgh.
My wife has some kinda hook there for some reason.

As a matter of interest, what school are you in and what grade ?

PS why are you not riding whats his name for calling Muslim women " cum Dumpsters  " ?

cause most religious women are kept in the restricted role of a cum dumpster

you're equating 'quality of education' with 'class' in a bit of a glossy way... i'd rather send my kid to a 'trashy' state school than have him inculcated from a young age with some bogus theology and fairytale.

I attended catholic school from K-10th grade.  More drugs and debauchery at the 'Catholic' school then the public one I graduated from.  Lower academic scores too.  But the total education was a bit better at Catholic school.  I was forced to take comparitive religion classes and classical mythology, both of which weren't even options at the public school.  It was kind of weird to be forced to go to mass and have a religion class every semester though.

Good for you, So it would seep into your kid no matter what you told him. He'd believe his teachers over all, oh well then.

My kids smart enuf to Ace the Fairytale stuff also, take the better education and move on. Looks like a Win win for both of us.


I never met I cum dumpster myself. Lincoln freed the slaves here so you are just what you wanna be and you cant really blame anyone. A bonus is that you can keep it to yourself as far as I'm concerned I don't need to know what people do nor do I care.

Depends were you are.

I went to public school but I lived in a catholic neighborhood. Their intermediate schools were better. We all ended up in the same high school and alot of the catholic kids graduated a year early. My middle school had some twisted teachers too. The janitors would have to come in and intimidate them when they got out of hand. Just terrorizing kids, grabbing their hair and smashing their heads on the desk was pretty typical. One little girl was so scared she pissed herself and the lady made her sit in it for hours, I kid you not. Of course we didn't get sodomized but none of catholic kids ever told me of a pedophile priest. One did take of with a married woman tho. He always drove a red Vette wtf ! a man of God vow of poverty etc. lol

We would wreck the teachers houses when we got older, like in our early teens. we would pay them back. There were a few good ones who I always loved and kept in touch with. about 50/50

Our church was filled with Big Fat Nazi* Pigs. what f*ckin hypocrites to. My mom brought a black Friend to our church and they wanted to Lynch her for it.

They always pushed this " No false gods " stuff and made us make posters of everything Cool Like Cars, Pools, big TV.s etc and Label it " False GODS "

I would sneak in and rip all the posters down with my older brother. F- That ! even at 9 years old I knew I wanted Pools, Cars, Boats, Big TVs and was dam well gonna get em. I still have this Huge TV thing going. I always got to have Huge TVs I don't know why.

* alot of the older men had been in the Wehrmacht (sp)
Even the married men would hit on my mom because she was Smokin and divorced. Me and my brother had to run them off like dogs, We'd smash the shit out of their cars too. total f*ckin hypo crates

I stopped reading after the first line because I don't understand what you wrote.

I wasn't raised Quaker, I went to a Quaker high school. I was raised Presbyterian by my born again grandparents. When they retired to Florida I stopped going to church. Best thing that ever could've happened to me. Religion is ok, but not when it comes at the cost of willful ignorance. Believers don't bother me unless they are creationists and other sorts that believe in a literal translation.

i went to an anglican school but anglicanism over here for the majority of people is just like an upper-middle class version of the same-old lazy church of england protestant beliefs... but with more pomp and fanciness, cause ofc all the anglicans are rich wankers. religion never really pervaded my schooling experience; sure we had hymns and prayers and weekly church/choir but i either didn't have to participate or didn't care for it, anyway.

the sorta schools you guys are talking about with 'religious curriculums' or 'theological faith-based teaching' are frightening.

Well I am in the north east U.S.A. New york to be specific and so far it doesn't scare my kid and he sees through it for what it is with no complaints. It ends up being like an elective course that you don't want or need. There is no emphasis on making you believe or have faith but rather they are responsible for knowing the material. But in this town the classes are small in the catholic schools and that helps a lot when they are younger. The real lunatics get booted so the classes aren't slowed down or interrupted by a clown or kid with A.D.D.

At the High School level it is a different story. Then the public school has the edge, Particularly in the town south of us. They also take their sports curriculum very seriously and both the boys seem drawn towards organized sports so that will be a factor. The catholic school offers a good pre-school program to but we have a barter deal with a private nursery so they go there instead. Plus it has video cameras you can log into and watch from were ever, I like that. My girls love the people that work there and when we hire them to babysit the girls are ecstatic.

In my experience Quaker schools on the other hand don't seem to do well with comprehension and retention so you have to play it by ear and make your own decision based on where you live.

Moron, the Quaker school I attended is one of the top grade schools in the entire country. 100% graduation rate. 100% of students go on to college and at least half go on to Ivy League schools. The offensive line I was a member of on the football team averaged 1500 on their SATs (out of 1600).

And you completely fail to understand that parochial and other religion based grade schools fully understand that they have to go kind of easy on the preaching. No one was talking about them, neither the OP, nor anyone else. We're talking about unaccredited 'colleges' like Bob Jones University where they teach Creationism instead of biology and force all students to dress like Amish. Fundamentalist nutjobs. We're not talking about your local catholic school here.

Christ, I wish you would just fuck off already.

yeh there's a big difference between bible-camp schools and 'denominational' schools that are government approved and accredited. most of the top schools in the UK are technically anglican, jesuit or catholic, too- just because historically it has been where all the wealth/power/knowledge is concentrated, in social class stratification, so there you go... people get packed off to 'denominational' schools despite having no faith nor any interest in developing it.

That is pretty much my point. ( But I cant comment on Europe, Maybe some self appointed know it all assh@le will check in and help us out.) That and the intolerance for Christianity by the same people who fall all over themselves give more radical people carte Blanche. It seems selective and hypocritical.

on the whole it is a dolt who weighs in cursing.

In all honesty, Hunter does have a point in that criticizing Christianity for its dogma is accepted, whereas doing the same to Islam seems to be frowned upon by political correctness.

Personally, I think any school that pushes religion on students to the degree that Bob Jones or many madrassas do only serves to hinder free thinking and learning.

Knowledge is generally the antithesis to religion, because the more you know and understand about the world, the more you recognize religion as the bullshit it really is.
