I tried it for one year, and similarly would never homeschool mine either... because my sanity wouldn't stand it!

The theory was a bit yawnsome, but the practical was fun.

Try educating yourself before making inane statements. Oh wait, wasn't animal sacrifice in the bible? Something about the scent of burning bull being pleasing to God?

But wait...you were against educating yourself...now I remember.

Excuse the tortured metaphor but isn't Paganism a rather large church? Without further explanation you can't really blame other posters for adding in their concepts and imagined rituals, as the term does seem to be a tad amorphous.

you see this is where you are starting to look even more like an arse, and not really selling home ed if this is the standard of acceptance and discussion you will be instructing your children in. i am certified by the CIPD in London for adult education, specifically in personnel development and management.
and who said i was into the bible, or anything else religious for that matter. i believe i have kept my personal religious beliefs exactly that, personal. i hope you are teaching your children more tolerance about other faiths, but somehow given the evidence so far i doubt it.

and finally, i never said i was against educating yourself. i said i was against, strongly against, unqualified parents home educating their children simply so they can force their own beliefs, hatred, intolerance and prejudice upon them.

Does any of the last page of BS have anything to do with Homeschooling? (Raes last post being the notable exception)




Dont be attacking or deriding each others personal beliefs or I'm closing it for good this time.
