chicago24 you seem to be outright bigoted against people of faith and that bigotry represents the reason why many people choose to educate their children at home. It is a valid reason, but not the only one. It's true that colleges now actively seek home schooled students because they excel when compared to the national standards.
I worked at a prominent university and my boss, very high up in liberal academia and she and her husband home schooled their children because our public schools are lacking. She worked and he stayed home and taught the kids. The activities they did with the kids where rigorous and comprehensive liberal arts activities covering world culture, art, music as well as core courses. He is not certified in our state, but both the boy and the girls were two grade levels ahead of their peers.
At this university we also had a home schooled freshmen working in our office. She was only 16 when she was admitted. The U of D has pretty high standards and is ranked high nationally.
I also agree with igh's point. Jesus rocks!!
On our own we are little more than bits of stone and glass. Together we are the Body of Christ. Holy Bible: Mosaic is an invitation to experience Christ in His Word and in the responses of his people. Each week, as you reflect on guided Scripture readings aligned with the church seasons, you will receive a wealth of insight from historical and contemporary writings.
