    No, it's not an ignorant post. It is part of the reality of homeschooling. You don't find it amazing that you have not only not seen a failing homeschooled kid, you never hear of them ever failing a test. Amazing.

    That's right, because the last time the under privileged students of Washington D.C. were given vouchers, the children improved, the parents were ecstatic, and Barack Obama took it away to support the Teacher's Unions over the children. The parents marched, cried in public with the kids and they still got thrown back into failing public schools. Their gains have been erased. Their hope and opportunity has been extinguished by the Democrats. It's no wonder more and more Black Americans are turning away from the Democratic Party.

    Excellent....Peer Reviewed Researh from the Home National Education Research Institute.
    Fair and balanced I'm sure. Like Exxon doing "global warming" research that was Peer-Reviewed.

    Given the fact that my post actually addresses the topic and while you pat yourself on the back at the thought that you are SO clever, I'll remind you that you made no attempt to answer the questin. Given that, I think you are in the lead on this thread in your own category.
    Thanks for the laugh

    Believing in six days or billions of years of evolution won’t change how they live their lives. Being taught they’re the reason why blacks are oppressed and can’t do math doesn’t change their lives either except make them feel guilty over something they didn’t do and have blacks resentful towards them.

    After the Rodney King verdict blacks were attacking whites and said this is for Rodney King. After George Floyd blacks attacked whites and said this is for George Floyd. What are you going to do when blacks start attacking whites say it’s because of what they learned in CRT class? You guys are literally promoting hate and loving it.

    Again, the pope and catholic church dont support any gay agenda. Treating people with respect is not the same thing as supporting the agenda being pushed by same people. You clearly dont attend if you think otherwise. Pope and catholic church treat gay people like they would a drug addict. Love the sinner hate the sin. But just like gays, they arent giving drug addicts a platform or promoting the activity of drug addicts.

    Name gay agenda items that the pope and catholic church support....

    Do they support gay marriage? Nope
    Do they support gender reassignment surgery? Nope
    Gay teachers? Nope
    Gay programming? Nope

    So what does your radical catholic church support of the gay agenda?

    Did you know many gay's? They were there. I don't know how old you are but you don't remember Dr. Renee Richards? You should, it was common knowledge....even in public schools. The fact that the medical advances that make gender reasignment didn't exist at the more available way it is now would explain that also. Sad effort.

    If that happens, I'll become a racist and vote Republican.

    That's a rather stereotypical and ignorant statement in and of itself. Homeschooled?

    You would probably find a more comfortable home in the Democrat party.

    I guess that blue haired, tattooed people (with or without butt implants) are not qualified to teach school? Is it because they are intellectually incapable or morally incapable?

    More than a handful of them hate the "right" people. So in the progressive world they get a pass.

    I'm not going to name names but if you can't see any of them you choose not to

    I couldn't agree more. I think that many assume that anyone can teach...so I guess formal education and training in that field is unnecessary. Also, the vital importance of socialization and competition and other necessary components of becoming successful humans is overlooked completely.

    Either you don't want to name names or you don't have one.

    Simply put.

    You are aware there are rules here that would prevent that right?

    Don't worry when I see blatant displays of it I'll go ahead and use the mention function to draw your attention to it.

    Just like I did when I showed you a perfect example of an extremist on the left and you continually ignored it.

    Do you really think we hate the people on the right? Or do you consider that we might hate some of their views and policies? Very different things.

    I have seen some blatant displays of racism here.

    Not just disagreeing with their points of view.

    I read the pro homeschool comments.

    Intolerant, racist, homophobic, conspiracy theorists.

    This is what conservatism has become in the US.

    They now want to isolate their children at home so they aren't exposed to the world.

    And they dare to talk about propaganda in public schools...

    Pathetic.

    That's a whole big long list of stereotypes you painted with that broad brush of yours.... It's almost like projection...

    Hmmmm......So you're point is that the home school teachers that also went to crappy public schools also aren't qualified and we are now in a never ending spiral downward?
    Or that the home school teachers are tested like high school teachers are to teach those subjects.
    Actually......what are you saying?
