Yes, all religions should not except federal/state/local dollars for their schools. It was funny that the catholic grammar school that we attended only made the parents pay for the first 2 kids. The rest were free. Just another little tweak how the church encouraged larger families. The street right by the school was 99% catholic and every house in that neighborhood had 6+ kids, all the way up to 14.

Define "state support"?
Does indicating which board you wish your share of education tax dollars to be sent constitute state support?"I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow

I thought I read somewhere that, of the parochial schools, only Roman Catholic schools get state support in Canada? Perhaps that was in one or more of the provinces, like perhaps Quebec?"The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
