  • With a strong desire to cut cost…and to fire the tenured music teacher that had been abused by the system for four years with draconian expectations, and minimized budget, my district cut music K to 12 when my oldest of eight was in third grade. That same year our school board won School Board of the Year for their innovative “best practices.” Feeling on the edge of the twilight zone, we pulled our children. My oldest went from not knowing times tables in the third grade to doing sixth grade math in one year. We stayed with it for all of our children until they reached high school age, when we sent them to the school where I teach. Each of the oldest has received fours or fives two to three AP classes, each has gone on to higher education. My youngest son, thirteen, is the drummer for the high school band and has been for the last three years, though still home schooled, and my third daughter is second in her class. They know how to recognize thought from propaganda, truth from fiction…and they’ve had the background we chose, and not that mandated by a state out of control. No one co-parents with me, because I alone must stand before My Father and give an account of what I’ve done for His children. The bottom line is simple, while the school still suffers from the errors of ten years ago, we still enjoy the benefit of choice…and that is what its all about. Truly special education that does not cost my neighbor a red cent.

  • What a nightmare. Every male homosexual friend I have ever had was seduced around the age of 12 by an older man. . .I hate litigation for human error. Here is a case where litigation for unconscionable stupidity could bring the Boy Scouts down, and we can return to sanity.

  • I thought I understood stupid…The word has now been redefined: “The compulsory attendance laws — and related punishments if violated — apply to everyone, and therefore this isn’t a case of persecution, they say.” What? Sharia applies to everyone equally as well…therefore it isn;t persecution when a woman is stoned to death for not wearing a veil. Every woman is treated that way…It isn’t persecution when a Christian daughter is taken from her family and forced to serve Islam…Every Christian is treated that way in countries under Sharia law. Did the judge remember to breathe? Or was this his last breath before his brain gave way?

  • I suggest she go to the Voice of the Martyrs, and see what I’ve seen first hand. Perhaps a stint in jail for “possession of subversive literature with the intent to convert a Muslim” would help clarify her thoughts. I had Bible studies with me…against the law. I had handed none out. The minimum sentence, eight months to three years, was stayed on my behalf, because the jailers spoke well on my behalf. Let her walk as a Christian in a hostile environment, armed, unlike Islam, only with the hope of the Gospel, and the love of those who think you are an enemy…Christianity in the primitive sense grew by miraculous persuasion, unlike Islam, which began with the sack of Medina, and the siege of Mecca, and rooted its own schism with the poisoning to death of the Prophet by one of his own.

  • That would be the quintessential question, wouldn’t it: “What difference does it make?” I can’t wait to see the answer. We have been so completely bamboozled for so long, the terrifying reality could be, that they have completed their overthrow of everything good, and it makes no difference.

    Or…We could repent, weep, fall on our knees, and beg for light to shine in those darkened places where evil draws its only power in deception. Let everything that is hidden come to light…even if it means that we face our selfish pride in the mirror of that Truth that we replaced with entertainment…(When in Human HIstory has truth been decided by which talk show host is more entertaining?) Oh God, may we once again know shame, and turn from it.

  • Brainwashing begins with info laundering. Scrubbing “talking points”? It’s a filthy business.

  • Puhlease…There is enough wrong with Islam without confounding everything: This was a tirade against satan…who gets stoned every year during the Hajj, and has nothing at all to do with American soldiers. You were made privy to a prayer form, nothing sinister or diabolical…You assume that the soldiers of light are we: the good guys.

  • “The fool has said in his heart there is no God.” You don’t need handicaps to be a fool…in fact, you don’t need brains. There is a depth he cannot fathom, until it be too late, unless he can plunge his mind into the sea of repentance.

  • Who cares what I would have done, when I was young and stupid…Old and stupid is far worse. Right now I would look at the nails, bb’s and shards surrounding my dead girlfriend, and catch the comparison to my murderous comrades in arms in Boston. I might even catch a glimpse of a young boy, of the limbs of the innocents, and think: Rather cut out my own heart than make my point using their lives as my raw sewage.

  • The Catholic church that still believes also understands the meaning of shame also understands that it’s not something you parade in the street…unless the time has come to admit that our shame knows no bounds.
