christain groups vs non- denomitional
Bonnie M Paglialunga
Valerie and Bethany,
Just like many of the post here have a different view of what being a
unschooled is I think there are different ideas associated with the word
Christian. And you probably would not be accepted into the there group
anyways. It has just been my own personnel experience that has formed my
opinion of there closed off group. Bonnie
But I will say this, even though I am a
Christian and could in all good conscience sign a statement of faith and
join such a group, I probably would not. I did not choose to keep my kids
out of
school in order to keep them isolated from the greater world, but to immerse
them in it. Part of that is meeting people who do not share our beliefs and
learning from them. So, while I assume you were in jest, please do not
include a statement of lack of faith in your group, because then where would
I go?
***Bethany, you're right. I was kidding about the Lack of Faith Statement.
I'm right there with you...I am a Christian, but I could never join a
Christian-only homeschooling group for the very reasons you stated.

to not do what you don't want to do, and,
second, to do what you want to do.
