You are correct. I have not addressed the issue of world view.
This is actually a much different discussion that of funding of religious education. As I have said, in most of the US, that would mean diverting precious public funds to an ever growing number of evangelical schools that would teach (and do teach) anti-intellectualism as an essential part of their world view, precisely what the state would choose to avoid.
===========================================
Most scientists do not have a difficulty with separating the teaching of science and of faith. Many are believers; many are not. However, what is appropriate in a science class is clear. A science class uses and teaching the methods of science and passes them down to our children.
The same is true of mathematics, logic, grammar, and language.
Where some struggle is in the teaching of civics, history and literature. I would favor teaching a course on the Bible in public school. Such knowledge is necessary for the understanding of English and American literature.
Yes, I was taught history in high school from essentially an economic perspective. Others learned though dates, great men and women.
But yes, the scientific method and materialism does permeate the teaching of the sciences, both the hard and the soft sciences.
My sociology teacher taught us that it was our duty to have many children, since we the bright kids. He was Catholic with 12 children.
Yes, we were taught about sex and birth control. You won't find that in US religious schools.
==========
The public schools mirror the local area where they serve. There are problems. Many schools have tried the failed theory of "value free" education. They ahve learned from their errors.
Are there problems when children (at the behest of their parents) refuse to understand evolution? Are there problems when kids don't believe in protecting minorities? Are there problems when children insist that an event happened because God chose it to happen and refuse to look at economic, psychological and sociological causes. Sure, there are such problems.
But religious schools in the US do no better. Is it really better to be a Boston College and Boston College High School where crucifixes have been take down because they might offend (with the outline still there)?
Do we do poorly by teaching about the peace movement and the civil rights movement without considering the centrality of religion. Sure, we do.
So, for me, we could do better. We could and should teach comparative religion in high school. We should teach about the Bible. And we should have a segment of our American history texts devoted to religion in America.
============
You and MKJ not accept the scientific world view used to teach the physical and social sciences. Apparently, you would have our public schools choose among the religious world views. Or are you saying that there is no place for public education, the very center of the melting pot that is America?
I understand what it means to teach from an evangelical world view. I would never want my local public schools teach in that manner. So, not only don't I want us to fund religious schools, but I also do not want religion to be part of the world view of the public schools (other than for the needed courses on Comparative Religion and on the Bible).
You haven't engaged with MKJ's point that there is no such thing as world-view neutral education. So what you have is an education system that teaches a secular (or incoherent) world view, with any religious instruction as just an add-on.
