This post is for home schoolers
I was visiting a home school co-op that I used to go to, and I went to a debate class with one of my friends. As we were sitting there the teacher was saying how homeschoolers are lucky because they are smarter, and better than publicschoolers. Then my friend told the teacher that I was a publicschooler. I've been thinking about what she said and I know notice something that I never noticed when I was home schooled. A lot of homeschoolers think they're better than publicschoolers and smarter. They have this prideful and holier than thou attitude. It's funny, I never noticed that when I was homeschooled. I wonder if I said anything like that, or thought anything like that. That is no way for a Christian to act, a lot of homeschoolers that say these things have probably never experienced public school and they just go by what they hear.
A lot of Christians also wont go to public school because they believe it's evil and they'll be surrounded by fools. When Jesus came to the earth He was surrounded by fools, but he came to die on the cross so that we may have salvation and be free from sin. He also told us to preach the good news to all creation. (Acts 1:1-8)
I also think I have found why people buy all the evolution and stuff that public school teaches. The reason is because there aren't enough Christians there. There are a lot of Mormons, but not enough Christians to tell why public schools are teaching the wrong things. And we cant do that by staying home all day, sometimes we have to go to places that will give us hard trials and trust that the Lord will help us.
To tell you the truth, public school isn't really that bad. It really just depends on the school you go to.
To end I want to tell you, for those of you who are, stop having your prideful and better than you attitudes. It doesn't help anything, except for make the public schoolers feel like Christians aren't very nice people. God also tells us not to have those kinds of attitudes, but to love others and treat them as you would have them treat you.
so this blog is going to be about my thoughts on different things. (Yeah I probably could have chosen a better name for my blog, but I like to have simple names and stuff)

casas de carton
here's a video my dad showed me. I really liked it.
casas de carton
here are the lyrics-
EDIT: the english lyrics were translated incorrect. I'll add them later.
Que triste se oye la lluvia
En los techos de carton
Que triste vive mi gente
En las casas de carton
Viene bajando el obrero
Casi arrastrando los pasos
Por el peso del sufrir
Mira que mucho es sufrir
Mira que pesa el sufrir
Arriba deja la mujer preñada
Abajo esta la ciudad
Y se pierde en su maraña
Hoy es lo mismo que ayer
Es un mundo sin mañana
Que triste se oye la lluvia
En los techos de carton
Que triste vive mi gente
En las casas de carton
Niños color de mi tierra
Con sus mismas cicatricez
Millonarios de lombrices
Y es por eso que digo, Que tristes viven los niños En las casas de carton
Que alegre viven los perros, case del explotador. How happily live the dogs in the home of the exploitator
Usted no lo va creer, pero ay escuelas de perros
Y les dan educacion
Pa que no muerdan los diarios
Pero el patron Hace años muchos años
Que esta mordiendo al obrero
Que triste se oye la lluvia
En los techos de carton
Que triste vive mi gente
En las casas de carton
Que lejos pasa la esperanza
En las casas de carton
english-
How sad is the sound of rain on cardboard roofs
How sadly my people live in their cardboard houses
Down comes the worker, nearly dragging his steps from the weight of his suffering
Look how much suffering this is
Look at the weight of his suffering
Above he’s left his pregnant wife
Below lies the city, and he loses himself in its maze
Today is the same as yesterday…it is a world without tomorrow
How sad is the sound of rain on cardboard roofs
How sadly my people live in their cardboard houses
Children the color of my land, bearing their own scars, millionaires of nothing but worms
And that’s why I say, how sadly the children live in their cardboard houses
How happily the dogs live in the home of the exploiter
You are not going to believe this, but there are special schools Where dogs are trained not to bite those around them Yet the owner has been “biting” the worker for many years
How sad is the sound of rain on cardboard roofs
How sadly my people live in their cardboard houses
How far away from the cardboard houses…passes hope

oldies
Hi, I just thought I'd say my opinion on something. I dont like oldies, and the reason is because they're all about love. And it's all worldly love, it even seems like they're worshiping love and the person they love.
