🍎Public school kids are going without.
📓Teachers are buying classroom supplies out of their own pockets.
✏️ Families are being asked to donate everything from pencils to tissues.
💔Schools are cutting programs, losing teachers, delaying repairs, and struggling to meet students’ basic needs.
Meanwhile, LifeWise brought in $39 million in a SINGLE year.
That money is funding the continued expansion of religious instruction during the public school day—while the public schools those children attend are expected to keep doing more with less.
This is not your small local Bible program.
🚩It is a multimillion-dollar national operation building its growth on access to public school children.
Our communities have money.💰
The question is what—and who—we are choosing to fund. 🤨
What people are saying:
- Facebook User: Agree
- Facebook User: While there is a current trend of churches hiding predators, it may be best to set a boundary for student protection. After all, it is the law.
- Facebook User: Facebook User public schools hide them too
- Facebook User: Facebook User Public educators are actually mandated reporters. Not reporting makes you as guilty as the crime.
- Facebook User: Facebook User I don’t think so. Teachers are pretty good at ratting out their own when it comes to children’s safety.
- Facebook User: Lifewise is cult like and a ponzi scheme. They keep asking for more because people are giving while they don’t have all the facts.
- Facebook User: Facebook User learning about our creator is a cult?
- Facebook User: Facebook User that’s not the goal though. The goal is to sucker them into a belief system
- Facebook User: If they aren’t choosing you, you would do better to ask why rather than tell them they shouldn’t.
- Facebook User: Facebook User Propaganda troll.
- Facebook User: Facebook User public education is for all students. The secular nature allows for plurality of beliefs to be respected.
Parents choose public education overwhelmingly.The State shouldn’t favor a religious belief as that leads to tyranny.
Parents don’t currently see the bigger picture of what not funding schools properly in Ohio and other states will led to. When they finally do, this option may be forever broken.
Which of course is the goal of un-American Christian Nationalists.
- Facebook User: Facebook User If people were choosing Christianity, Christians wouldn’t need to fixate on finding a captive audience of the youngest, most impressionable, vulnerable minds to brainwash.
- Facebook User: Facebook User how is that different than what public schools are doing?
- Facebook User: Great job proving that you aren’t to be taken seriously. It only took one reply to show everyone that you’re a waste of time. lol
- Facebook User: Facebook User because people like you want this! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/lw5mtn92G0w
- Facebook User: Facebook User “Parents choose public education overwhelmingly” Um that’s why they are backing vouchers across the country.
- Facebook User: Facebook User well off parents looking for a hand out. Private schools can and DO discriminate.
- Facebook User: And let’s not forget the $8,000 vouchers for private school kids 😡
- Facebook User: More than $10K each, more than $1B for 100,000 students
- Facebook User: Facebook User nice to see you’re against educating children 🤬
- Secular Education Association: Facebook User NOPE. She’s all for educating children. Nice to see you’re for state sanctioned segregation!
- Facebook User: Secular Education Association private schools have a right to exist, and children deserve the right to those vouchers. If you don’t like the law, try to get it changed.
- Facebook User: I’m against giving $$ to affluent families who choose private schools. They can choose what they want, the public funds should not be used
- Facebook User: We sure will. First step, vote out the corrupt republicans !
- Facebook User: Facebook User all parents have the same choice tho. Most just go with public school because its easier
- Facebook User: Facebook User some of you can’t be taught🙄
- Facebook User: Facebook User we asked for vouchers because of the culture, unresponsiveness and secrecy of local public schools.
- Facebook User: Government always and inevitably provides worse services at a higher cost that the market. If we want good education outcomes, government shouldn’t be involved.
Also, there is no non-religious instruction. You just prefer some unprovable claims about reality more than others, mostly because you don’t know history.
- Secular Education Association: Facebook User oooook bud. Thanks for boosting our reach!
- Facebook User: Daniel Jones So science is a religion? Cool! No? Then there IS non-religious instruction.
“The government” could fully fund public schools, allowing it to be able to have enough as it educates the overwhelming majority of children in this country. Money shouldn’t be funneled toward a private educational system that educates few, chooses whom it educates, and involves an education of myths cloaked as religion. And I’m not just referring to Christianity.
- Facebook User: Facebook User “there is no” … nice.
- Facebook User: Facebook User Bahhahahhahaa! Education has nothing to do with the markets, and no, religion is not everywhere or everything. Get out of your silo and get a clue.
- Facebook User: Facebook User I think maybe you need to pull out a History book or two. Also, you might want to read up on Lifewise.
- Facebook User: Facebook User where is this market? You mean state subsidize private education that has zero oversight? That’s not the free market….it is state sanctioned segregation
- Facebook User: Funny I didn’t know that life wise takes taxpayer funds from public schools
- Facebook User: Facebook User none of the money to Lifewise comes from tax payers.
- Facebook User: Facebook User I know. I’m not saying it does.
- Facebook User: The Old Man in the Sky is an excuse for fraud.
- Facebook User: Worship in school.Needs to stop immediately. Football worship is offensive to the taxpayer.
- Facebook User: Facebook User free country, free choice to worship in and out of school. Not observing that right is against the law.
- Facebook User: Facebook User I tried to be sarcastic..we can worship a leather football on taxpayer dime..but not our creator.
- Facebook User: Facebook User
- Facebook User: Facebook User you didn’t get my point 😂 I wasn’t saying it had to be offered. I was saying when those who want to worship ASK if they can it has to be observed
- Facebook User: Facebook User why? There’s clips of classes. The curriculum was released, sued the parent, then settlement has it released. We know it is an awful program.
- Facebook User: Imagine how all that money going into Life wise could be spent helping homeless students, helping families with medical debt, helping students with disabilities who need a motorized wheelchair or a transport van, etc.
- Facebook User: Facebook User yea. Do it with your money.
- Facebook User: Facebook User I do what I can. I would think Christians would as well.
- Secular Education Association: Facebook User how Christian of you. We assume anyway.
- Facebook User: Secular Education Association Christianity is about what you individually and voluntarily do, not compelling your neighbor to do it for you forcibly by government
- Facebook User: I don’t know why anyone is worried about Sharia Law when Christian Nationalism is right here. When was the last time a muslim knocked on your door to convert you or tried to put the Qur’an in schools?
- Facebook User: They are part of the plan , have you seen their instruction videos to kids telling them to be submissive ! Close them down , hiding behind religion so believers think they are good .
- Facebook User: crooks liars and rapest look it up .crimes in vanwert ohio done by these trash.
