Private schools can still hold up their heads : Comments

By Kevin Donnelly, published 23/10/2013

Ferrari uses evidence from two research papers to mistakenly claim that Catholic schools, and non-government schools more generally, fail to perform as well as they should.

Prefer the unbiased objectivity of Justine Ferrari and Chis Ryan.
As a boy I attended both catholic and public schools.
Catholic schools lost out, in my view, in the amount of time devoted to time wasting religious indoctrination outcomes, that seemed, particularly in high school, to pervade virtually all the lessons, particularly science!
And one can see where it may have applied to the Author's own inferior Catholic education, during English lessons, given Ferrari is still spelt with three R's!
Perhaps the Author might care to identify the actual factual flaws in the references relied on by the two investigators, if indeed, there are any?

it came..about..by this..reply
.you..making me/wanna puke..onya red-slippers

but really..it just..continues this

http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=15542&page=0

know ..that some people..are focusing
on..the important..things.

People..like me.
On things..like shoes.

Which..is why..we must
take..a moment..to recognise..the fact..
that..there..will be ..no more.red shoes..for His Holiness,..Pope/Benedict..XVI
edit
Red shoes..have always..been associated.with power,..edited..Red itself..is associated...with aristocracy and wealth,

Add..even..a slight heel..to your..shoe,..you’re declaring
that you..don’t work..in the/fields..and are rich.enough..to be totally..impractical..about your shoes...You are..one of..the well-heeled,..thankyou-forverymuch.

But..the MATERIALIST-symbolism..continued.

<<..reserved for..aristocratic men..and..a mark..of royal favour.

<<..we have Charles Perrault’s popular stories
of...Cinderella..and Puss..in Boots,..both with shoes..that transform their..lowly/station..and make them/rich,/noble..and happy.

<<Hans Christian Andersen..wrote..a fairy/tale called..
‘The Red-Shoes’..about..a young woman..who becomes..enamored of..her red shoes[money/power]

edited

<<..Red-shoes..are..NOT..powerful things,only signs
and..unless..you’re careful,..the/sign..by design..will destroy.

most-expensive-shoes-the-wizard-of-oz
Then..of course,..we have..
Dorothy..and her..own powerful..red shoes...She uses..them for good..but..OF..their power..is in..no doubt.

So for..good or..ill,..red-shoes = power.

And..the papacy..is part of..this tradition.
Red shoes,..also..known as..the papal slippers

of course some..loved their red-shoes..too much
took it too far..[much like your elites/your po-lies/pubic serve-ants

http://america.aljazeera.com/articles/2013/10/23/vatican-sacks-blingbishopforluxurylifestyle.html

and city councils
http://www.suntimes.com/business/23310572-420/trial-starts-is-detroit-eligible-for-bankruptcy.html

this insanity LOCAL COUNCIL LOOTING..goes on globally
it all begins..with..*the old school tie/class titles honors bored seats trust-funds

[you will..know them..by their kowtowing..lack..of good works,,
rather than...their spin-meisters words...or publicists blurb..and photo spread

and by seeing..they are above ACCOUNTABILITY
such perverted..high-life nest feathering..must in..time bring us all lower..but such are..the servants of satan..

blind/deaf/ignorant..of any outsaide their clichje'..eh?

selectively..the lie of the old school ties..
collectively..a stain..a marking of the beast..abusing the least

that ye did to the least
you did to..the..most..

[and thats..not..one of ya ol..school tie maties
pip..pip..ol chap..and all..that cat-fat..

walk a mile..without..*any shoes

those..with so much..who gave..so little
had..so much more to loose..but greed blinded..them..made them deaf

let them eat..and the 'pink mush'..vacuumed off..dead bones
and..for food..you gave..recycled-sewerage waters..

yes..you masters..of the loony verse..
you can hold up..your heads..[or rather..hold back..our unkempt hair,..as we vomit..back.,,your own spin-merchantpuke/..if only..we had food..inour guts

if that..dont make you..sic*..
well..for..the elites..thats just basic...sic*

The con that is religion should never have been allowed to interfere in the education of our young.

Kids should be allowed to think for themselves rather than be forcibly indoctrinated by clerics and/or parents who present myths and theo-babble as facts.

Why are we allowing this farce to continue? Why don't we stand up for our young, allow them to be educated without it being overlaid by mind-deadening superstition and fairy tales?

Of course, it is clear that a properly educated person will reject the claims of religion so those who make a living out of duping people want to get hold of gullible children before they begin to think for themselves.

And, worst of all, some of the clerics have a bit of depraved sexual enjoyment while they indoctrinate!

Get religion out of education! Protect gullible children from the religion con!
