So you think we should replace the public scools with catholic schools? Does that make sense to you?


Absolutely not. I think that a variety of non-public schools should replace the public schools. Or at the very least, those who choose to send their kids to a private school should get tax credits. The absolute best thing that could happen to public education would be to get a little competition. Public schools have failed the less advantaged student. If they know that they are going to lose their funding due to competition from private schools, maybe the teachers and the teachers unions will get off of their collective asses and start teaching the kids how to read and write.

Do you like all the pedophiles in the Catholic schools and the religious indoctrination?

The number of homosexual pedophiles in the catholic church is actually rather small. On par with the statistical norm for the population. There are certainly an equal number of pedophiles in the public school system (there have been two arrested in the past two years in the public middle school just down the street from me). The Catholic church leadership was definitely criminally negligent in the way that they responded to the homosexual pedophiles in the organization. And you will certainly find quite a few examples in the past where homosexual pedophile priests infiltrated the church and molested boys. But have you heard of any examples in recent history? The past 10 years? The past 20 years? yes, I know, there are people who came out recently, but they are for crimes that happened 30 and 40 years ago. I am not excusing what was done in the past, nor the fact that the church hierarchy protected the homosexual pedophiles in their midst, but to present this as an ongoing issue is intellectually dishonest.

It would seem that you are making an argument for keeping homosexuals away from children? Does this mean that you think that the Boyscouts shouldn't have gay scout leaders? Afterall, we need to protect the children.
