How stupid Expand Pre - 1960 America - where did events like this occur? What schools saw shootings take place? Also, the Commandments could be found in classrooms thru the 1800s and 1900s. How did this country survive and not become a full fledged theocracy?? 1 2

Tommy Callahan Posted June 20, 2024 Posted June 20, 2024 (edited) Oh the horrors. Public schools will have things like "Thow shall not Kill" on the wall next to the "Honor thy parents" Can you believe these people. Thats horrific.

K D Posted June 20, 2024 Posted June 20, 2024 I'm a Christian and I don't agree with it either. I wouldn't like it if they had other religious teachings on the walls so we can't pick and choose what is acceptable and what is not. I hope people find it on their own but I don't agree with shoving it down people's throats 1

Look, the Ten Commandments thing is silly. It is an own the libs move. Pointless at best, offensive to (most) Americans' values at worst.

Yes, I would like to see standardized testing (indeed, standards in general for the private schools parents can choose from), but that is the real solution to the very real problem of public education today. I went to Catholic schools, sent my kids to Catholic schools. Religion was a subject, prayer was a daily thing, and the curriculum was strong enough that any motivated kid would be prepared for whatever higher education path he/she wanted to follow.
