* Guest: Lowell Nelson – CampaignForLiberty.org, RonPaulInstitute.org

* Semiannual General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints – ChurchOfJesusChrist.org

*Sunday morning: President Nelson discussed civility, dignified dialogue, the value of being a peacemaker, and the use of kind words in communication.

* This is important in what we do in the cause of liberty. We want to win our battles for freedom, but we don’t want to make enemies in doing so.

* Sam, do you believe in confrontational politics? What is the difference between contention and confrontation? In other words, how do you persuade your state representative in a way that engenders mutual respect?

* Do not delegate parental responsibility to anyone else.

* HB 348 Participation Waiver Amendments – This bill protects public students’ right of conscience.

* James Madison called conscience the most sacred of all property. We must not teach our students that they must set aside their religious beliefs when they enter the public classroom.

* Vouchers are a “School Choice” Trap – Alex Newman, TheNewAmerican.com

* He who pays the piper calls the tune.

* No Hope for Government “Education” – Paul Dragu, TheNewAmerican.com

* Dragu: “Saving our children from government schools is perhaps the most important act of patriotism Americans can take.”

* “The architects of government schools, people such as Horace Mann and John Dewey, were socialists who sought to create little socialists who would grow up into big adult socialists and turn America into one big, happy, socialist utopia.”

* “The good news is that more than 1.2 million children have been pulled out of American government schools just in the last two years, which has regime propaganda outlets such as The New York Times freaking out.”

* Better yet, get your children out of the government indoctrination centers and educate them at home. They can do at home in two hours what they would do at school in six hours. And you can relearn the history, math, and language arts you were never taught when you attended public school.

* The Ron Paul HomeSchool Curriculum is available. The Freedom Project Academy is available. There are numerous resources available nowadays at your fingertips.

* “Rather than looking to government for help and other people’s money, Americans must return to the biblical principle that children are the God-given responsibility of parents–not Caesar.

* “Preserving genuine school choice–independent of government money and control–is one of the most important battles in the fight for freedom today. The well-being of the next generation, and therefore the future of America, depends on it.”
