Does it not say in Deuteronomy that any one among you who educates himself in the ways fo the world has sinned against me? and that educating thyself in my name is an abomination? Therefore shouldn't we close down the schools altogether, rather than incorporate god into them?

Why not read Deuteronomy and see for yourself?

True religions should be taught in schools by knowledgeable teachers.
False religions and fanatic preachers will cause harm to pupils.
The educational administrators should have brains to make correct choice.
Proper education is physical, intellectual and spiritual education. Lack of any part means defective education, which is more harmful than no education. Just see our world with its defective education now!

I was forced to go to a catholic school for 8 years. They were some of the most miserable years of my life. I would have been so much better off in public school. Those years have made me bitter against "religion", so what did all that education mean...nothing.

sounds Ok, however, if ALL religions are taught, it has the same effect. My grand kids go to a catholic school. (smaller class size and fewer classes than the public school next door)and the kids in grade 4 start learning about other religions, andit continues right through.

I think you misunderstand

anyone who educates or participates in the ungodlyness of the world is what he meant. But no,religion (especially Jesus) should be in schools;it would help more than it would do any percieved harm.

schools aren't just for religon, thats what religous schools are for, schools are for basic education. If we incoorperate religion it will get out of hand, Christians dominate populations wise over Jews, Muslims, Arabs, Hindus, Atheists. It would be chaos

If your child attends a public school, then you have nothing to worry about as the education provided is lackluster at best.

No, schools need to exist. Religion has no place in them. An educated mind is the best defense against stupidity and depravity.

NO, you're misunderstanding what it is saying. It is saying that we are not to do wrong things and learn bad things. But we can learn about what God has created. We can learn and study what He has made and done for us and for Him. We can study and learn more about Him. Like what we are supposed to do and how we do it. It isn't a sin to learn. It is a sin to wrong things. May God bless you and answer your questions : )

Wow... just wow.

On second thought, good idea.
If every Christian stopped going to school, the whole movement would fizzle away in a generation.
