Comments on: Homeschooling Carnival Up https://gregladen.com/blog/2009/01/12/homeschooling-carnival-up/ Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:53:51 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.8 By: Lynn https://gregladen.com/blog/2009/01/12/homeschooling-carnival-up/#comment-529532 Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:53:51 +0000 http://scienceblogs.com/gregladen/2009/01/12/homeschooling-carnival-up/#comment-529532 Odd. When the carnival was run by an Atheist/Objectivist, it was the “Cool Unsocialized Homeschoolers”; now that it’s run by a Christian Creationist/Providentialist, it’s “Weird Unsocialized Homeschoolers.”

Apparently, unsocialized homeschoolers are also “dense,” accepting submissions from people who don’t homeschool. …Of course, since you once practiced homeschooling on yourself, you may qualify. In fact, because “all the world’s a classroom,” everybody qualifies.

Welcome to the party. [wink]

I’m personally glad that they keep their kids out of public schools.

The “wink” was simply based on the fact that my regular blog readers know that my blog is unashamedly Christian. It was not intended as an insult to the entry.

As for the ID site, I include all relevant links of interest as they are submitted. The link was submitted and I included it. It was not intended as nod to ID or a refute of evolution. Simply an entry.

Thanks for linking to the Carnival.

I have no idea how to make a link to it so you’ll have to copy and paste:

Thanks for your contributions to homeschoolers Greg!

Not all of us homeschool because we want to raise our children in a delusional world of sky fairies and mythical creation stories. Do you know how frustrating it is to look for good homeschooling resources only to find jebus embedded in them?

It’s good to know that someone is trying to introduce real science to these people, even if it is laughed off as a joke.
