And I've looked into it. I found that the local Catholic school has minimal religious indoctrination. I've had several dozen students that graduated from it, and they were of all different denominations. Our public schools are the ones shoving the government's version of religion (environmentalism, secular humanism, and any religion not Christianity) up our students' asses, today.Heroditus Huxleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11049569750742829144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7529212130092758272.post-60220568449442976182012-02-28T07:49:29.597-06:002012-02-28T07:49:29.597-06:00Catholic School?
