Dear Dr. Boys, I believe in the separation of School and State. Maybe the Dept. of Education will never be eliminated, but, even so, it is not necessarily dangerous for thinking Christians to keep their children away from public schools. Nor is it necessarily going to happen that people without children will never have to pay taxes to support failing public education. Even so, I generally like what I have heard from people like Sheldon Richman, I believe his name was, unless I have forgotten it. He wrote a book (I think it was available from Laissez Faire books, a libertarian-conservative book service informally or formally associated with the works of the objectionable “Objectivist” Ayn Rand (I reject her philosophy), but other than that, it had some good books for sale, I think. Take care. I think Richman’s book was called “Separating School and State”. Sincerely, Scott R. Harrington, B.A. (1990, Gannon University)
