Homeschooling is….

Asked and answered:



To which you just jumped to your own conclusion anyway:



So it is, in fact, casting pearls before swine to explain anything to you, because you are incapable of honesty or reason.

You fool, you can't even explain your own positions. I owe you no explanations for mine.
My disagreement is with American tax dollars going to support a foreign country that purposely bombs neighborhoods with innocent women and children, to say the least. The IDF has killed people that were going to food banks. Our tax dollars pay for this stuff. It’s wrong!

Israel has free healthcare, free college, abortion on demand why are we giving them money?

I was listening to a podcast yesterday and Joe Kent was being interviewed. The person interviewing him asked? Are you worried about Iran getting a nuclear weapon? He said, no. The guy asked why? He said, because they’d never use it. The guy then asked, how do you know that? Joe Kent said, because it would be voluntary destruction. America and other countries would literally destroy the entire population of Iran and Iran knows this.

I’ve explained my position many times in detail.

And you are for the war. @Ekklesian posted one of your replies weeks ago where you incriminated yourself.
 
You said you gave me authors who you believe. Where? And wherever that supposed source is, why do you believe it?
I never said there were authors I believe. I said, there are authors on both sides that say 6 million and other authors that say it was much less. Therefore, it’s up to you to choose who you believe.

My view is, how can you know if you have scholars on both sides saying different numbers. I should’ve lead with this instead of saying it wasn’t 6 million.

But like I’ve said many times. I’m at work take a glance and post without much thought.

Take a look at post number 71 of yours, where you said….

“My reasoning for the numbers as the holocaust goes is my example of the two different authors I gave you.”

Dude, you can’t even remember what you said a few minutes ago. I’m trying not to bust your chops but you’re making it difficult.

But my overall question to you still stands, why do you pick the sources that you do to believe whatever is the holocaust figure that you have yet to name?

My obvious point is that you have a bias. You appear to start with a conclusion and look for evidence to support it.

Of the two different authors!! Who came to two different conclusions. Who do you believe? Both? Or one? I have no idea.

For the love of the patience of Job, and for the last time, what are the specific two authors you are talking about? Is there a link to their writing? I’ve read the whole thread over twice and you haven’t linked to these authors or their persuasive arguments.

And what was it specifically in their arguments that persuaded you of the correct number of Jews murdered during World War II by the Nazis?

Both say it was much less than 6 million.

Both say it was around 6 million

Have you read their original source writings? Or are you reading what others have said (summarizing and paraphrasing) about their conclusions?

And again, what is it about their claims that you find persuasive (whatever the total deaths you believe happened)?

No it’s my conclusion. I read all 4 books probably 15 years ago. I already told you my conclusion. All 4 books make a good argument.

Is English your first language, lol?😉

I’m not asking you what your final conclusion is, I already know that you are some version of a holocaust skeptic. I’m asking you what specifically persuaded you to that conclusion? What claims were established and what evidence did they provide you that you find credible that leads you to believe whatever the number is of Jews that were killed?

It was 15 years ago dude. I walk into rooms and forget why I’m in there.
 
The above Aryan airhead questions the 6 million murdered Jews
Did I? I believe i merely refused to take part in your little inquisition.

You obviously haven't looked into the sources i cited.

I feel no obligation to give an answer intellectual sloth.
 
In my anecdotal experience, I would have to ask you what you mean by “doing well”, but the system that I have observed by and large is rife for abuse. Having said that, most of the examples that I can think of, the children were decent at parlaying their homeschool experience into vocational trades that did OK for them. And on the other hand, from my observations, especially for the STEM side of the equation, homeschooling rarely offers the opportunity for advanced studies that equipped children educationally appropriately, particularly at the high school level.

My public school teacher wife has many stories of unfavorable examples of homeschooling, i.e., parents who pulled their kids out of public school to do homeschooling. Most of those cases aren’t for religious reasons. And I would add that I don’t believe her bias as being a public school teacher disproportionately color her opinion.

Where I do think there is a lot of propaganda that’s bunk against homeschooling is the “they won’t get socialized appropriately” malarkey.
The not well adjusted issues is the one I have seen the most. The home schools kids who were involved in the youth group, community or christian sports leagus and went to home school events seemed to do just fine. The ones who were isolated with their parents almost all the time with the exception of church services did alway seem a little ackward. Some struggle in college as well. As to acdemics it's all over the board just like public and private school kids. Most score well on standardized test and excell when they get to college. The winners of the national spelling bee, national science contests and writing challenges are often home school kids. Kids can be successful Christian young people with a good testimony in public school, Christian school and home school enviroments.
