You been both, I been both - neither public nor private schools are monoliths. Given a choice, especially for spectrals, give me home schooling every time.

Why do USA Catholics, who worship the corrupt, child crime hiding, pedofile hiding foreign Pope of the Vatican, not God, reject the entire USA public educational system from public grade schools to public high schools to public universities like the University of California at Berkeley? USA Catholics will never, ever pass the collection plate to raise money for publlc USA schools/public school students at all but only raise money to finance their fascist worship the Pope, not God, USA Catholic schools. Why? Why are they granted a non-profit, tax-exempt status to badmouth USA democracy and the entire (2011) USA public educational system?
Seriously pgd, stop being such a bigot, you make the anti religious look bad.

I, for one, do not generalize - pgd is what he is, there is one in every third class and you have to live with it. Actually, these Knock knocks make the serious antireligious look really good. I doubt that is the idea - given there could be an idea.

"
I love your anti-religion rants, they make me laugh Laughing"

The first couple I too laughed, thinking there was humorous intent behind the super over the toppitude.

After a dozen it got boring / irritating - you get that if you tell the same joke too often to the same people, I still suspected humorous intent.

By now, though, getting to the point where I worry about nutter mutters and interventions.

Some people I know thought Flowers for Algernon was funny.

Being anti-Catholic is one of the few socially acceptable prejudices left. We have done our fair share of rubbish, after nearly 2000 years of existence, were bound to have accumulated some legitimate reasons to be disliked. We also have many more reasons to be liked. However, there is one thing I can be glad of, PGD is not one of those reasons, at least he isn't Catholic.
