Public schools are criminal institutions that are 'teaching the religion of Humanism' .....

[cleanhippie]

Public schools are criminal institutions that are stealing the hearts and minds of children, turning them from God and Jesus Christ, according to the trailer of the newly-released Christian documentary, IndoctriNation - Public Schools and the Decline of Christianity in America.

Back in August, 2010, Colin Gunn took his wife and children on a 3,000 bus tour to make his film. When announcing his IndoctriNation project, Gunn contended "that public school curriculum is antagonistic to Christianity, promotes Darwinian propaganda and socialist, Marxist agendas," adding that "There is no neutrality in education. All education is intrinsically religious. It's no victory if we just get creation taught alongside evolution. What we need is Christian education in every subject."

The film, which is sponsored by various Christian business and homeschooling groups, such as Exodus Mandate Project, "a Christian ministry to encourage and assist Christian families to leave government schools for the Promised Land of Christian schools or home schooling," will be available on DVD October 18, followed by public screenings in select cities across the United States.

1. Welcome to the "heartland".

"What we need is Christian education in every subject"

That's what home schooling and private schools are for. Public schools are not for forcing sectarian religion on the masses.

2. I agree

2/3rds of the Bible is killing everyone that is not Jewish and then even god gets pissed at them and destroys everyone except 8 people
we need more of this christian value taught in the schools

7. Vine & Fig Tree?

:rofl:

8. Which is why it was included in this ridiculous straw man of a "documentary".

Had they said what they wanted to say, it would have made even less sense.

9. I figured as long as you rely so heavily on atheist ands antitheist sources,

there should be no problem here.

12. Poe. Most definitely.

Has to be.

10. The fewer Christians there are in the USA, the more desperate and

militant the Christians get, the more of a cult it looks like.

What's next for them? Advocating ignorance?

I have always thought that an untrained parent or two with a few dozen books and a Bible cannot properly "school" any single child at home as well as the dozens of trained teaching professionals in the local public schools. With few exceptions, of course, they do a decent job of making their child somewhat literate. That's not really solid preparation for a modern world.
Few parents can teach calculus, Shakespeare, or several other high school subjects, so most give up the home school ideas by the time the child is 15 or so.


Those parents that go on teaching through high school subjects usually avoid scientific topics like astronomy, geology, biological evolution, and probably a lot of the history of Christian Crusades, and gloss over stuff like the Spanish Inquisition, the black plague, the arrest of Galileo, and a thousand other really embarrassing moments in the history of Christian societies. They "indoctrinate" their children with half truths. Close to child neglect, in my opinion.

11. Tut, tut. We mustn't criticize religious beliefs.

They could be right! Or at least so I have been told by many believers on DU.

13. Oh yes, most ceratinly.
