Another D’oh.
Found at Dani’s site. I don’t feel well enough to wax on here, but boy, I sure could. Just more evidence that teaching our children at home is the only choice we have.

Wonder if God and prayer being removed from the public school in the 1960’s (not to mention the new liberties being afforded in our society at that time, some good, yes, have had major impact on the family and the comittment and desire to remain one, in a role that is actually beneficial to the children coming into those families) could have anything at all to do with this?
In 2005, we can add school shootings, stabbings, drug dealing, pornography, along with rape and child molestation; committed by teachers and students alike.
Yay social progress.
Hey Captain Mom,
Thanks for stopping by my blog and for all your creat comments.
I’m glad I found you here - I was looking for you at geronimo, but I couldn’t figure out how to leave a comment.
(I posted this on my site for you too.)
You said you just left a church over those issues on my blog – same with us. More accurately we were asked to leave and accused of causing “division” since we didn’t agree with what our pastor was teaching. Oh and God forbid if we want to actually to study the Bible, no there will be none of that. It is also an ugly long story full of pain just like your I’m sure. I would love to hear what happened with you – email me. And you should DEFINITELY post about it. No time like the present to get “out of the closet” more - Right!
Here is a fun quiz for you to take (my former pastor scored a generous 30/100) => Pastor Qualifications:
