sir, as a devout believer in the Lord, I must say that your point doesn't really register with my logic...basically, because today's educational institutions try to remove all belief from one's mindset
school these days tries to replace religion with science, unlike the days of yore, when religious beliefs were entwined with education

"unlike the days of yore, when religious beliefs were entwined with education"
You mean like during the dark ages?
In the days of yore, families had 20 kids because only 3 or 4 would make it to adulthood - most died after painful, heartwrenching illnesses, needless infections, and plain accidents, like breaking a leg. Not enough time to earn money for food, and people were worked a lot harder. Lots of stress not knowing what decisions you were making would cause more loss of life than others - either way, someone would die.
Oh - those were the days!

No, it doesn't "register with your logic" because you're not using logic. It does not register with you because of your desire to believe in nonsense.
"school these days tries to replace religion with science,"
No. Religion has been largely removed and science has been added bit by bit, but science didn't replace religion.
Uh, yeah, but that's a good thing. Removing nonsense from education is a positive, Snuffin'Stuff.
School in my days was nothing but religion and Mein Kampf.
The "days of yore" huh? Well why don't we just kick your ass back to the stone age? Days of totalitarianism. With science we free ourselves from such self-destructing bullshit. In regards to your logic, your algorithm sir is this...
And have you ever noticed how much smarter kids are? I remember learning multiplication tables in 3rd grade, kids do in first grade and second grade now.

Maybe you are mistaken. School usually teaches what is accepted science, it doesn´t try to replace religion with science.

Which religion should schools be teaching as fact then? Let me guess, yours?
When I was in primary school (and I went to a public school), we still had bible studies. It bored me to tears. Really, seriously. I was SO BORED.
I think we stopped having bible studies in third grade?
Science class, now...I LOVED science class.
And funny thing, science is NOT what drove me away from Christianity. Other so-called "Christians" drove me away.
Here's a suggestion.
Get with the times.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
