The hillbillies that really believe this rubbish could never afford the fees.
Naturally you must pay exorbitant amounts to have your brain thoroughly washed, rinsed and dried out.

because 'parochial schools' are generally understood to be Catholic, and 'Fundies' know that kids in Catholic schools will learn, along with evolutionary theory, Catholicism.
You imply that 'Fundies' are not intelligent. Most of them, of course, are the product of the public school system.

Their might be a cost issue. I don't know firsthand, but I think most parochial schools cost some money, while public schools are free.
Plus the benefit of forcing your religion on everyone else.

Another reason, besides cost, is that they want other people's children to be exposed to their "beliefs", and perhaps swallow it and be "saved." Fundies are not content to let other people decide what to think, they want to convert as many people as possible .

Plenty do, and some do home schooling. The rest can't afford it and so make a fuss.

Why don't we take evolution OUT of schools instead?
