[Christian schools]consistently outperform public schools, and while only spending about 2/3 as much as public schools do per student.



Your clearly stating that christian school education is superior to public education. Did you factor in the fact that children sent to christian schools are typically from better off families?



The students are taught how to think and reason, instead of what to think. The students are much more intelligent and well read.



Christian students taught to reason instead of what to think. Hmmmm. You know, I kinda thought the christian schools taught faith over reason, at least when it comes to evolution, origins, etc. And the christian students are "much more intelligent"??? Have we considered maybe correcting your data for income levels, etc?



What data are you using to prove christian school students are more intelligent, better read, etc? Making stuff up again? Hear-say? A right wing radio talk show host who used to be a climatologist?



We spend over 1/2 our state budget on schools that don't perform well. Imagine saving 1/3 of 50 billion dollars every year, and getting higher quality education at the same time.



The simplicity of your "analysis" would be astounding if it weren't so frequently exhibited here. To credit christian schools with superior education without calculating the influence of family income, etc is absurd....but your no stranger to the absurd are you? How do you think the same schools would do when inundated with the special ed students, the ADD students, the poor and the crack kids? You think they would still get those numbers? What happened to your highly sophisticated analysis rodney? Missing some pretty basic fundamentals of research aren't we?



And let me ask - just where did you get those ideas? - I noticed you didn't credit any source. Your not making stuff up again are you rodney? You do too much of that here.



California could eliminate the budget problems we got into with our very liberal legislature, our last democrat Governor Davis, and our energy problems all in one swoop!



Your eneergy problems are the result of getting stuck by Bush's friends - or rather, Cheneys.



Personally, I have never even been on the premises of a private school, that I am aware of. Maybe if I had gone to one, I wouldn't have been at the top of my class in math and the sciences, because of "better" competition.



Top of your class? When, in 4th grade? And thanks for admitting you nothing of what you speak.
