There is no problem whatsoever with this,
even with science education. Since it is pretty
obvious that homeschooled children learn
science better than their public-schooled
counterparts.
Mark Tindall continues:
If pseudo-science creationism can be taught as
science in such homeschools then phrenology, blood
letting, astrology, tarot card reading, etc etc etc
can ALSO be taught as science.
But, even in those states in the US where there are
"standards" for homeschooling, pseudo-science creationism
can be taught as science, and phrenology and blood
letting, astrology, and tarot card reading, etc etc
can also be taught as science. Ditto for Australia,
for that matter. Leastways, I think freedom of speech in
the home and the church still exists in Australia. Ergo,
these things *can* be taught. In fact, only by means
of totalitarian laws could these things be forbidden
to be taught in the home, in the churches, and in any
institution that is not a licensed creature of the
government itself.
