The homeschooling mother remarked passionately: "You people who send your kids to school, you have no idea what the schools are doing to their fresh little brains, in brainwashing them into this progressive, liberal -- it's antithetical to America, the agenda that they're being indoctrinated with."

Sorbo, who recently released a book called "The Answer: Proof of God in Heaven," said she has long remained quiet about her faith and political beliefs. Among other things, she was concerned about retaliation in Hollywood against herself and her husband.

She entered the political arena by writing about education, thinking it was a relatively non-controversial issue.

"As naive as I was back then, I thought, 'Well if I write about school, that's not political!' But of course school is the most political, because that's where the progressive agenda is coming out the strongest and the hardest," Sorbo remarked.

The actress added that she went to public school herself and received a quality education, but "the schools have absolutely changed."

"Why are we brainwashed into believing that an institution is the best place for our children to hang out all day?" she asked. "Who wrote that law?"
