If Kristel and I have kids, I think we'll end up sending them to Catholic school.

I hope someday there is a "blowback" on our College ed system. "Back to Basics" at that level is really needed. If we get outdone the century, it will be because of the failure of our educational system.

oh no... a life of guilt ahead...

before you do... you must perform the following test for EACH child:

1. put a chair and a table in a dim lit room.

2. put the following items on table:
a. bible.
b. bottle of wine.
c. a bag full of money.

3. put child in chair.

4. close door.

after 5 hours, open door and report findings.

Guidelines for findings; (if you find):

1. child reading bible = he/she will be a priest/sister.
2. child holding money bag = he/she will be successful in business.
3. child drinking the wine = he/she will be a drunk.

HOWEVER.....

if you find child reading bible, holding money bag and drinking the wine.... he/she....

If you send your children to Catholic school, they will become Catholics. And there's no such thing as an ex-Catholic, only lapsed Catholics, which are still Catholics.

Send em to a good private school. Or country public one in Utah.
