11/24 Great School Debate

Quote From: tlc2225

Would you send your daughter to a school where they only taught them creation and not evolution?

 

Honestly, my decision to homeschool had nothing to do with religious beliefs. I am a conservartive Christian, but our school is quite conservative most of the time. I do read and see what happens at other schools, and I think parents have every rights to raise their kids as they see fit.  If people choose to "protect" their kids - whether they are Amish or atheist -  I can respect and understand that.

No, creationism isn't back up by any facts. I am however going to make her aware of the RELIGIOUS beliefs of others. Even those who believe OTHER things besides creationism. (It is after all only ONE religious story of many.)

I of course see it as good to see people raise their kids as they see fit. I just see it differently. I see it as my job to prepare my daughter for the world...not to make her think like me.
