There are nearly as many reasons as there are homeschoolers, but the underlying issue seems to be one of control: Who will control the content, question and answer.Homeschooling started with parents at the political fringes of the...

masternote There are indeed many and varied reasons to make the home school leap. A vast majority of them, by virtue of their subjective nature, are perfectly legitimate reasons. We have home schooled our 7 children for 15 years. None of them has ever attended a public...

I'm just curious as to how many homeschooled kids get a feel for the business world, no matter how big or small. My oldest will be 9 in less than a week. We live three blocks down the road from a public school, so we have a whole...

masternote Well, edgyk8inmomma, it has been five months since you posted this. How did the little business turn out for the remainder of the school year? (I assume there wasn't much business once school let out for the summer.) We have home schooled our 7 (soon to be...

Many people have bandied about the expression "lesser of two evils" in the context of this years presidential race. Do we have any real options? I heard one political pundit coin a phrase that really does describe the current...

masternote cripfemme, I agree. Neither you nor anyone else who has mistakenly concluded that it is the "state's" responsibility to provide for your needs would ever vote for someone who thinks otherwise. You say the "state" pays for your assistant, your insurance,...

People's ideas about angels (who they are, where they come from, and how they function) are as varied as the people themselves. Where do all of these sometimes amusing, often dichotomous, and always polarizing opinions and views...

masternote Hi, megaman2000ph! Thanks for responding. I understand what you are saying, but I still need to ask..."based on what?" What is the source of your beliefs about angels? How did you arrive at these conclusions?

I pose this question as a Christian myself to fellow believers. What is it about Christians? Why do we claim to believe that the Bible is the inerrant, inspired Word of God, applicable and relevant for daily life, belief, and...

masternote Hello, xParanoiax. Just to make sure we are all dealing in reality here, nobody in this discussion (before your post) has said anything, good or bad, about either candidate's age. Mine was not a question of age, but of experience. If a candidate were in his...

masternote Hello, lilaclady. Thanks for responding. You have sort of explained, in a roundabout way, that what you believe about angels is based on your experience. Is there any other source? Did you read something, or did someone teach you this? Also, I wonder if your...

masternote Hello, niv_musicman and islander7! Thank you for your responses. But this is what I was afraid might happen. People would respond answer the first question by telling what they think or believe about angels, but would not answer the second question: why? What...

Is it worth it to vote for a third party? I know they have no hope, but I am fed up with both parties, and don't see not voting as a good option, but I am quite frustrated right now. What do you think? Is it worth it to vote third...
