-Caveat Lector-
When do you imagine the Government involved itself in
education on a 'larger' scale? NOT 1789.

Silly history books, why they tell about schools in
America when the british were still in control.
Large scale no, rual America had no schools
and schools only went to the 8th grade.
I just saw something on pbs about ged s and
they said even up to about 1940, less than 20%
of the population had graduated from high school.
It does not matter what the scale or how many grades
the fact is that public schools were around when
Washington was still a Brit and they have been around
after the American revolution until today.
The framers (those who went to school) were taught
the bible, they prayed and did all that religious stuff,
so did their children and their grand children ...
and IF their intent was a separation of church & state
they would have noticed religion was being taught
in schools.
In higher education, religious studies were required
to get a diploma. Many of the modern universities
started out as religious (government sponsered)
universities.
Every time anyone repeats "separation between church
and state" from the constutition is another time they
compound themselves to be bald face liars.
Another wierd deal ... no bibles and religious books
in schools "because it is public funded"?
How come the public funded libraries ... have all kind
of bibles and religious books in em?
