My Christian belief as an Exiled Believer (John Shelby Spong's term) should not by a subject in a discussion on homeschoolling. Try to keep it on topic.

Do you feel the level of professionalism in the public schools is where it should be?
OK... that's a fair criticism.
Let me ask you something....
In your opinion what is worse?
Poor homeschooling
or.....
Poor public schooling?
Ah ......did anyone have time to read the post????
OK, but you do realize what a wacky nut Spong is right?
How can I post to each reply???? Still figuring on this new fangled technology!!!!
Yes, my wife and I have two basenjis. One female of 12 years and a a young (4 month) male puppy. For tjhose not in tyhe know a basenji is an African hound that does not bark (it howls like a dingo), that preens itself like a cat ...and they can climb trees!
PS excuse any spellng mistakes .....

Man oh man...all the attributes of an animal I would hate. I'm glad you're not my neighbor.
I think all good education is worthy no matter what the system but any educational system that does not contain good education is unworthy. I have taught in public schools and Christian schools.
So ...yes pubklic schools ahve their fauklts. this is amtter which publkic school teachers critically reflect upon. Unfortunately I have not seen the same level of critical reflection in homeschools.

No problem, we realize you have a public school background.

You're a teacher?
If you turned a paper in to me typed like that you'd get a big, fat, red "F."
OK... but that isn't an answer to my question.

Ok ...the spelling is because of the typing ...I don't type well ... that i acknowledge ...also I'm not writing a paper ... I'm discussing ... now and then the fingers will slip on the wrong key ...keep it to the ideas not the character, or the spelling, or the basenjis ...or John Shelby Spong ...though I may probably talk about him and his mentors within the discussion at some point.
Whay aren't you buying??? ... I'm not selling anything!!!!

When you were a teacher, would you have accepted that excuse from your students that turned in a paper typed like that? If not, are we here at TOL less deserving of well-typed posts?
