Are atheists for or against home schooling?

[Fight For Freedom]

I work with two of your ilk, and they believe homeschooling is bad because they believe the government should be in charge of every aspect of your life. They say homeschoolers be taught by religious nuts, or racists, but they forget that homeschoolers test very well

Five areas of academic pursuit were measured. In reading, the average home-schooler scored at the 89th percentile; language, 84th percentile; math, 84th percentile; science, 86th percentile; and social studies, 84th percentile. In the core studies (reading, language and math), the average home-schooler scored at the 88th percentile.

The average public school student taking these standardized tests scored at the 50th percentile in each subject area.

Morbo the Hopelessly Clueless- Wrong. Schools get plenty of funding. Read about the bush years. Money was pumped nonstop. I want less taxes, less government, and cuts to the military budget. I'm not anti-education. We can get rid of things like the EPA, ATF, DHS, DOE, etc and then put a little money in education, but use it sensibly. We need education reform in this country because of bad teachers and kids that dont want to learn and their parents that dont give a sh!t
