Ken Ham is ... EXPELLED

Homeschooling conventions are not necessarily Christian or Biblical. The comprise of all varieties of ideologies, some which would be incompatible with AIG.I assume all conventions are pretty much like the Washington State WHO. According to Wiki, "Its mission is to serve the diverse interests of home-based education in Washington State. WHO is nonpartisan, nonsectarian, and nondiscriminating in its views of homeschooling and participation in its activities. "

How so? In my reading of the whole thing, unless I missed something I only saw the word Christian once and never saw the word, Bible. I did see one couple, one of which was black and one white which debunks Arachophilia's bogus point. .How so would we come to opposite positions?

My comments pertained to homeschooling organizations at large. Evidently some are more diverse and inclusive than others.Admittedly, I have little knowledge about the organizations, though I know people of diverse ideologies who homeschool, one large family in particular, being more Native American pagan in belief, having no regard for anything Biblical. I've been in their home and we get along better better than most who know them, though we have little in common ideologically.

In two separate studies, home schooled children in America, by and large, score better than public school students.

Who is this "avoidance group" and how do they score, relative to the stats in my previous message link?

You didn't answer my question. I will re-phrase it. How does your "avoidance group" fare relative to scoring vs public schools.

Can anyone cite, by documentation, any home schooling group which scores lower than the public schools in their region?

The point of my question (abe: which initiated this segment of the debate) was to determine how home schooled children score compared to public school children.You are evading the question (abe: at hand). I'll repeat it. Can anyone cite a home schooling group which scores lower than the average public school group of that region. That means any group anywhere. Edited by Buzsaw, : as noted

Only if one lets it. I don't think Slevesque would let it. There's too much at stake for him. It is likely that he scores better than some in his class who do believe in the ToE.

There is a need for objective people like Slevesque who are knowledgeable and objective about all science PoVs. Not all are stuck on our way or the highway in their class rooms.My advice to Slevesque is to continue learning all he can about everything. He will be able to teach effectively in both creationist and ToE classes and do it more objectively than someone who has learned only one science view.If more of our educators, in both camps, were as knowledgeable as Slevesque is going to be when he graduates, perhaps, the best of both PoVs will prevail in the minds of the young impressionable minds of students being taught when they graduate.

All he has to do in order to drop the YEC is to reread Genesis one word by word, thoughtfully, especially verses relating to days one through four. That won't work for ToE, though.

There's always Google, for a refresher or new insight.

They will know where to go for answers which they have not remembered or known. If they share Sleve's aspirations, they will go on to higher education where they will learn the answers. Likely Sleve's first employment as a scientist, like most professions, will begin where he is able to handle all that comes on his plate.Not only that, but he will have knowledge acquired from all PoVs.

They will teach what their employer hires them to teach. In some situations, they may have the opportunity to answer questions of students pertaining alternative views which those students may wonder about.
