Mom In Germany Arrested For Homeschooling

Per Lifesite News, a law enacted by the Nazi's was used to arrest a mother for homeschooling her children because she felt the government education was in contradiction to her Christian beliefs. The father and children escaped to Austria and the mother had to serve a small jail sentence.

You can read the whole article HERE.

Amazing that parents are not allowed to be the primary educator of their children. Our country was founded on "homeschoolers." That's the scary part about government controlling things. When they control the education system, they control what your children will learn, even if it is opposite of your religious beliefs... sounds like breaking the free exercise of religion to me. If the government ever controls health care, they'll use that as leverage as well. A pro-life demonstrator in Canada, who was over 70 years old, had his critical health care postponed after he was arrested for sending pro-life literature to hospitals that permit abortion.

When in doubt, the goverment should stay the hell out of our lives... for our own good.
