This is why I don't vote.

A friend of mine went to a christian elementary school. When we saw this on Fail Blog, we dug out her old text books for a laugh.

These people are that crazy. The science book was basically a picture book. The most notable section was the page mentioning evolution. The author called Darwin a satanist liar, then went on to write:

"God made the trees, God made the bees. God made you, and God made me. God loves you, and God loves me."

That was it.

They come in all shapes and sizes.

I went to a Christian elementary, junior high, and high school (three separate Christian schools, going to a public school for about three years in there).

My high school was Baptist and, while they had some of the craziest views, the textbooks were 99% solid. The education level there was higher than any of the public schools and higher than most of the private schools.

It was like: there's education... and then there's Bible class or chapel or whatever. It seemed like completely different worlds.

My biology teacher believed in evolution, but he believed that man hadn't evolved from any other creature. It was like he worked around his religion with the science. Depending on the teacher, their views were quite different.

Not saying that their views weren't out there. I'm just saying that I bet that most Christian/Catholic private schools that show "results" have solid curriculums with some crazy religious mumbo jumbo thrown in. But, on the whole, they are beyond public school level and are competitive against other private schools. Why do you think so many people who aren't Christian or Catholic send their kids to Christian or Catholic schools?

(Bob Jones is one of those schools that is just totally bonkers crazy off-the-wall, though. I still can't believe that page is real, though :ugh

Don't think I'm anti-religion or satanic or anything. A friend posted this earlier today and I saw it fitting for this thread.
