Tim,
That's a horrible thing CHEC is doing. Hope Sonlight survives well through this.
Hey Tim, need any music teacher in Whitehall?

Well,

Looks like a lot of new homeschoolers are getting introduced to preterism right now as we speak:

Jesse,

I was in a pretty unique position to write about the full context and details. Not a lot of people know all the details.

When people get treated that way, someone needs to stand up and say something. I would hope someone else would do the same thing if I was on the receiving end like John and Sonlight.

Are you ready to come over and do some teaching? I'll have to mention it to the group here. Not sure if anyone has the extra $$$ to afford it. I can ask, though. Tomorrow we go to Helena for homeschool day at the Capitol.

Blessings,

Looks like more people will be introduced to preterism.
I can offer an overview of music, such as rhythm, improvisation, history, ect..
If there is no money, I understand.

---NEWS ALERT---

I just heard today about the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) which is approaching a possible ratification by the United States Senate. This treaty, as harmless as it may appear, is capable of attacking the very core of the child-parent relationship, removing parents from their central role in the growth and development of a child, and replacing them with the long arm of government supervision within the home.

This may give the government enough power to say whether or not you will be able to homeschool your children, let alone which brand of creationism to teach them.

Since its introduction in 1989, the Convention has been ratified by every nation in the world except for the United States and Somalia.

This is one to watch out for. Go to http://www.parentalrights.org/ to learn more.
