I think if there ever was a time to spend your money, keeping your kid out of a religious school is it. I just visited a preschool for my son, and even though it's not religious, it is located in the basement of a church. Even that bothered me a little bit. I take filling my son's head with bullshit very seriously.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
