We played by your rules.. [was 'What JudeoChristian values have brought us']

RE: We played by your rules.. [was 'What JudeoChristian values have brought us']
Actually, Summer, I'm going to surprise the shit out of you and give you that old connection. The first public schools in the United States were established by Puritans to teach Puritan ideals. Boston Latin is one such school. Moving further up the education chain to private schools and you have Harvard University, also established by Puritans to promote Puritan ideals. Today, also one of the most expensive places in the United States to get an education. It's a loose connection, though, philosophy and religion do seem to be the reason people bothered with education to begin with. It just expanded from there.

That being said, this thread did not belong in Christianity and the title is super fucking misleading.
