good, neither do i, esp. not here where there is likely to be few participants -- but why evade the germane ed.-in-ontario points?

that is a cop out; i've made no digressions, all is tied in; the arguments have been variously boiled down or dilated upon, if you evade the latter, how can you avoid the former:

rel. schools produce upright citizens at a rate at least as good as non-rel

rel. parents wanting rel. schools pay taxes to uphold institutions for others producing upright citizens (and those that don't!)

ergo rel. parents should be able to fairly offer differential ed. for their own

(best to avoid framing as "religous", however, but i can accept a popular boiled version of low flavour for argument's sake for now)

re gpo:

if there is anything to authenticity, and "spirituiality" is at the stated heart of green political renewal

relgions are obviously the principal sources for learning of spirituality

religions need depth of transmission to prosper

such transmission occurs best in schools for children for very many people

gpo should revert to its original acceptance of differential schooling, incl. for religious

(but i do not care about them all that much, so this is for ideal political argument's sake)
