School Choice – Key to the Origins Debate

Can we teach the truth about creation/evolution in school?  Not in public schools.  Public education yields poor academics, Old Earth Fallacies (OEF), theistic evolution heroes, values clarification and many other errors.  State schools turn the Biblical WorldView on it’s head.

From 1776 to 1918, this nation (as a whole) did not have forced public education.  Just read American authors from the 1600’s or 1700’s to prove to yourself that they were well educated.

President Obama said “… I believe in parents being able to provide children with religious instruction without interference from the state.”  If so, he should support school choice (vouchers, home schooling etc.).

Horace Mann, the prime mover behind public education, died in the same year Darwin’s masterpiece was published è 1859!  Mann based his ideas on the Prussian model and was enthusiastically supported by the Unitarians.  This Statist educator rejected miracles and adopted Natural Theology while denying Biblical Christianity. [1]  There is even evidence of demonic influence. [2]  Samuel Blumenfeld has written a groundbreaking book on this topic, Is Public Education Necessary?
