"Hey Ginger -



I didn't mean that I think it is "Important" to have Bible classes - but rather, that as important as the Bible and Christianity are to Western civilization , culture and history, omitting all reference, as has become common practice, does a disservice to the student body.



As for elective classes that you'd rather not pay for - as you point out - this is always a problem. There are ALL kinds of things taught in public school, I'd rather not pay for.



All I am saying is, the students should not be denied these classes, if they want them, based on some imaginary constitutional prohibition.



Nor can this imaginary constitutional prohibition be used to shield a "religious" institution from state investigation and sanction, if they are hurting the state's citizens.



PS again -



I agree with you on the blight of public education.

Still, the fact remains, it is here to stay, no matter how much evidence one produces that it does more harm then good.

And so, like with the "regulation" debate - I simply feel we are beholden to make the best of any  ability we have to make a change for the better.

No - it won't solve the problem - but it might help make things better.[ This Message was edited by: BuzzKill on 2005-11-01 14:54 ]"


You might wanna check just how important paganism is to western civilization. A lot of our holidays are just rebadged pagan rites... like halloween, christmas trees, and plenty of other stuff Im too lazy to look up right now  :grin:

OTOH, the history of Christiantiy as far as the Catholic church, and its influence, corruption, and political powers is already part of history classes... so whats there to add to? Do you mean studying the dogma more than the direct historical impact?

In war, the stronger overcomes the weaker. In business, the stronger imparts strength to the weaker.

Never say never. Really, compulsory public schooling has only been broadly accepted in this country for well under a hundred years. That's a mere flash in the pan.

I was in Anchor for 1 year in 2001-2002. It's a good place. A lot better than juvenile hall for 4 years. They teach troubled boys to behave and function in society.

I really gotta wonder - why is it that so many supporters have suddenly appeared from a little known place located in the middle of nowhere?

I was "troubled" yesterday because my purse was missing.  I'm "struggling" with a work "issue".  Why must you be so vague?

The anchor academy is a faith based ministry of the hi-line baptist church. Most of the posts here about "WAR STORIES" about how the academy is so horrible is a bunch of bologna. The anchor is a very nice place for troubled boys. They focus on outward issues while God takes care of the heart. They teach the bible as basis of authority. They are very nice to the boys, but they do have rules that they must follow. Ok if you went to jail and got what ever you wanted and you could run a muck well then that dosn't accomplish nothing, but if you have rules you have to follow then you will straighten up. They also teach the boys vocational skills to help them during life. I was blessed to work with the boys in my home state for several months and they were awsome  so awsome i am going there to work for a few week to see if i wanna move to the anchor and be a full time staff member. It takes special people to work with young men in situations like that. I want to thank all the staff at the Anchor Academy for your time and efforts that you sacrafice each day. Thanks Bro Dennis the world need more people like you.

Amen! Bro Dennis is a good guy, caring and compassionate. He lives his faith with integrity. No one who knows him questions that.

Think "BROTHER" Roloff was praised just like this, wasn't he? and this Anchor is an offshoot of the Roloff ministries.  Give me a f....ing break!

How is it that so many supporters are suddenly coming out of the woodwork from a little known place  out in the middle of nowhere?   Really, how do all these successful grads find Fornits in the first place?

You should taken any sequencial anonymous posting with a grain of salt. To program supporters, this forum is a threat, something they take very seriously - and will do anything to protect.
