Are atheists for or against home schooling?

[Mark]

Neither.

Atheism indicates a lack of belief in a god (any god). It does not imply a position on any other matter.

Your responders will all make a case for or against home schooling, so i will not bother. But I WILL point out that there will be people who do not believe in god but who are not opposed to home schooling. maybe they will post on here, or maybe not: The simple fact remains that there is not a connection between the opinion about one of these things and the opinion about the other.

You may detect what appears to be a numerical correlation between the viewpoints, but even then, it would be wrong to conclude that being atheist causes opposition to home schooling.


Finally, just in case I have failed to state the point adequately, there are plenty of believers of various religions who will opine that home schooling is a bad thing.
