:: But the teachers will not mention alternative theories, and they will not allow substantive criticism of the theory of evolution, such the implausibility of any evolutionary path for the [[whale]].--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 15:05, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

* sex education, homosexual curriculum and sexual abuse by school personnel has been referred to as a "red-light district" for students

Line 103: Line 105:

:: [[Homosexual]] indoctrination in [[public schools]] has grown enormously in recent years. Sex abuse by public school personnel is rampant, and a whole series of newspaper articles uncovered this.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 15:05, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

* depressed demeanors

Line 123: Line 131:

:: I can often spot a public school student just by the depressed expression on his or her face.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 15:05, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

* an absence of objective morality; instead, a principal will say someone 'made the wrong choice'

* a lack of critical thinking about liberal indoctrination

Line 143: Line 157:

''She'' explained it, but it was like 3 years ago and I don't really remember much about it. I read the article on here about it and it was essentially the same idea from what I remember. '''[[user:FernoKlump|FernoKlump]]'''[[User talk:FernoKlump|Leave me a death threat!!]] 18:48, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

<hr />

* extreme anxiety

Line 163: Line 183:

There really isn't much drug use at our school, and it is pretty looked down upon. We have had a lot of education regarding this and most people stay away from it. But I guess for anxiety I am a bit out of touch because it seems like the people who have these problems don't really want to talk about it. I don't think that this is somehow caused by public school though, I think that it is just youth in general.

<hr />

* being so accustomed to censorship of ideas that there is genuine surprise when someone actually says something unfamiliar or politically incorrect

Line 179: Line 203:

It does address your points because I was giving examples of how one of my teachers talked about those issues. '''[[user:FernoKlump|FernoKlump]]'''[[User talk:FernoKlump|Leave me a death threat!!]] 18:48, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

* lack of awareness that prayer is censored in public schools and that teachers' unions are very liberal

as I said above, we know that mandatory prayer is illegal. I didn't know that the teacher's union is liberal, though.

Line 189: Line 216:

Does prayer have to be out loud? There is nothing wrong with praying silently, I don't know what benefit there is from praying out loud. God still hears you the same. Again, we have the right to pray as long as it does not disrupt the class. As one of my teachers said, "As long as there are tests, there will be prayer in school".

* alcohol and drug abuse

Line 195: Line 224:

:: 34% is huge, and the 5% is an underestimate (or perhaps the "frequently" adjective is the trick there).--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 15:05, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

:::Alcohol is a particularly large problem at our school, but it is declining. The statistic for ever ''trying'' marijuana was much larger, but many students didn't find an appeal to it and never tried it again.

<hr />

* disrespect for teachers

Line 205: Line 236:

Disrepect against teachers is usually dealt with quickly and with punishment. I remember a kid that gave a teacher the middle finger and he got suspended for a week. They also told him that if he ever did anything like that again he would be expelled. '''[[user:FernoKlump|FernoKlump]]'''[[User talk:FernoKlump|Leave me a death threat!!]] 18:48, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

* gang activity

Line 219: Line 254:

:::: I don't think you realize what goes on in less wealthy [[public schools]]. Do you have metal detectors in your school? Many do, but it doesn't sound like yours does.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 16:59, 4 May 2008 (EDT)

My point is that gang activity isn't caused by public schools or somehow unique to them. Gang activity is usually caused by poverty, where parents can't afford to send their kids to private schools or have the education or time to homeschool them.

That is just a summary of my experience in the public school system. I think that it shows that a lot of the points are just presumed and don't really reflect a majority of public schoolers.
