Mi nur opinias, ke ĉiuj la hejmlernejumantaj gepatroj instruu al siaj idoj Esperanton... I just think all the homeschooling parents should teach their kids Esperanto... jam antaŭ la hebrean kaj la grekan... even before Hebrew and Greek...

In our county there is no "one size fits all" version of public schools. There are magnet schools with emphases in different areas, like Math and Science, the Arts, etc. And a thriving private school industry with at least half a dozen options. And we're probably not the only place doing so. I think the stereotype of public schools I see here is becoming more and more inaccurate.

This isn't just a Texas problem, btw.

Despite the fact that this topic (the Bible vis-à-vis homosexuality etc.) has been gored to death on BL.com, I still like to rehash it occasionally (partly to see whether anyone has actually thought of anything new to say, and partly to reassure myself that I'm right and they're wrong... er... I mean...). So Michael, if you are not God (and you said you're not; I'll take your word on that point) then how do you know why Timothy denies what you say is the crystal clarity of the scriptures in condemning homosexuality (or homosexual behavior? or men lying with men as with women? or "sodomy" [a translatorial booboo if there ever was one]?)? You say "[Timothy has] to deny it to uphold [his] cultural relativism." Does the Bible clearly condemn what Ruth did with Boaz before they were married? You know, uncovering his feet and all that?

If the words of the scriptures are "crystal clear" on the subject, please cite them, i.e. give, yes, Proof Texts. Which chapters and verses contain this crystal clarity? Or which words, if it's words and not passages you're really referring to?

But please don't answer here. Since this discussion is completely unrelated to "Homeschooling and the SBC", I have created a new thread for it, ; thanks!
