Public School vs Home School

 

The public school system in the United States is not about education. Reading and math scores are at an all time low. Teachers claim it's a lack of resources (money) that is the root problem. Public schools are funded on attendance, not test scores. That's why teachers call the roll every day.

 

The real problem is government sponsored woke ideology and poor parenting. To quote Walter Williams, "For somebody to do well in school, 'somebody' needs to make him or her go to bed on time and get 10 hours sleep. 'Somebody' must make him or her do their homework. 'Somebody' must feed them breakfast in the morning and 'somebody' must make them mind the teachers. If these things are not done, I don't care how much money you put into the school system, education will not occur."

 

Most Christians believe that prayer in public schools will solve the problem. A 15-year-old SCHOOL KID in Minnesota, wrote the following... this is when The Lord's Prayer was not allowed in most US Public schools. 

NEW School Prayer:

Now I sit me down in school

Where praying is against the rule

For this great nation under God

Finds mention of Him very odd.

If scripture now the class recites,

It violates the Bill of Rights.

And anytime my head I bow

Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green,

That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.

The law is specific, the law is precise.

Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall

Might offend someone with no faith at all.

In silence alone we must meditate,

God's name is prohibited by the State.

We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,

And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.

They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.

To quote the Good Book makes me liable.

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,

And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.

It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,

We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,

Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.

But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,

No word of God must reach this crowd.

It's scary here I must confess,

When chaos reigns the school's a mess.

So, Lord, this silent plea I make:

Should I be shot; My soul please take!

Amen

From a Christian point of view, this prayer makes perfect sense. However, public schools are not the proper venue for religious indoctrination. No child should be threatened, coerced, or put under duress to participate in public prayer. If Christian prayers are allowed, then all other religions should be included.

Christianity itself is fragmented into thousands of denominations and cults. With all the conflicting religious doctrines and customs, public school prayer makes a child's life even worse. Religious beliefs are best left up to the parents. If Christians, and any other religious persuasions, want school prayer send their child to a religious school. Stop trying to impose one religion over another in the public school system. All it does is cause ill will and confuses children.

In case you haven't noticed, people are not all the same. The "melting pot" philosophy does not work in the real world. Birds of a feather flock together... and it will always be so. It does not mean one "flock" is superior to another. After school clubs are a better way to handle the various religious differences. Or join the Homeschool Assoication

 

In the 28th chapter of Deuteronomy, God makes it very clear that He will give us a choice of whether we want to receive His blessings or His curses. Failure to obey God is at the root of all our problems - personally and nationally. For example: Jesus said. "I send you out as sheep among wolves..." So why in God's name do Christian parents keep sending their precious little lambs to a wolf school system?

Take Your Precious Children Out of Government Schools
Have parents lost their minds? What will it take before they get their kids out of the government hell-hole? How about Christian parents for God’s sake!! How could a Christian ever put his/her child in a secular-training center? The media wants to blame guns, but no one wants to blame the criminal. Let Coach Dave Daubenmire paint you a picture.

Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

The Way It Was

 

WE ARE A GENERATION THAT WILL NEVER COME BACK

A generation that was born between 1935 and 1955

A generation that walked to school and then walked home.

A generation that did their homework ASAP to get out to play.

A generation that spent all their free time with their Friends.

A generation that played hide and seek until dark.

A generation that made mud pies.

A generation that collected sports cards.

A generation that found, collected, and Returned empty coke bottles to the local grocery store for 2 cents each,

then bought a Coke and a candy bar for a dime.

A generation that made paper toys with their bare hands.

A generation who bought vinyl albums to play on record players.

A generation that collected photos and albums of clippings of their life experiences as a Kid.

A generation that played board games and cards on rainy days.

A generation whose TV went off at midnight after playing the National Anthem.

A generation that had parents who were there.

A generation that went to the movies on Saturday to watch their Cowboy heroes.

A generation that loved America and proudly recited the Pledge of Allegiance to Flag and Country.

A generation that believed in the God of the Bible and went to Church regularly.

A generation that knew the difference between RIGHT and WRONG instead of "legal and illegal".

A generation that is passing and unfortunately it will never return no matter how hard we try.

 

I loved growing up when I did. It was the best of times even with its warts.

 

The Unborn

 

Common Protected Migratory Birds

• Ducks
• Geese
• Songbirds
• Gulls
• Shorebirds
• Wading birds
• Birds of prey

It is against State and Federal laws to even touch a bird's nest with eggs in it. State and Federal laws protect unborn birds. Isn’t it amazing that we have laws to protect unborn birds and at the same time abortion advocates are demanding the "right" to kill unborn children. 

 

By the way, have you ever noticed the only people who favor abortion have already been born?

 

These six things the LORD hates, Yes, seven are an abomination (a thing that causes disgust, a strong dislike for something that is very unpleasant) to Him: A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood, A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil. ~ Proverbs 6:16-18

 

LORD HAVE MERCY

 

Be of Good Cheer

 

 

Christians struggle most to accept the suffering of the righteous. Up to the time of Christ, the Jews associated prosperity and good health with godliness. They believed that wealth and health were because God was pleased with them. 

Likewise, there is an erroneous doctrine today that says, If you are in agreement with God, you will never suffer! Just call out to God, and he will come running and solve everything immediately.

This is not the truth. The heroes listed in the Hall of Faith all walked closely with God; they still suffered stoning, mocking, torture and violent deaths (see Hebrews 11: 36–38). God wants to plant something in our hearts through our trials.

The Lord wants us to be able to say, “Lord Jesus, you’re my Protector. I believe you rule over the events of my life. If anything happens to me, it’s only for my ultimate good (see Romans 8:28). Help me understand the lesson you want me to learn. I trust that you have prepared glory and eternal purpose in this situation that my finite mind doesn’t understand". 

Either way, I’ll say, "Lord if I live, I live to You; and if I die, I die to You. Therefore, whether I live or die, I am Yours." ~Romans 14:8

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (and so can you) ~John 16:33
