"You would rather they be groomed like the Greeks, than taught to love God and love their neighbors as themselves?"

You are setting up a false dichotomy (more of your deliberate dishonesty). I have said nothing about indoctrinating people with any ancient cultures. I believe people should have the best of civilized ideas and modern education in the arts and sciences.

The bible is not a civilized book. It is a book of superstitious myth that happens to contain some good in a lot of bad. It epitomises indoctrinating people in an ancient pre-scientific bronze age culture.

I think we should make use of 2000 years of education and civilization in order to honor a better society than one available to barbarians who believed in demons and cured problems by dabbing their ears and toes and thumbs with fresh flowing blood from butchered creatures.
