Christian Well-Trained Mind?

(My friend Cari and her beautiful family came to visit last week. And of course we did what homeschool moms like best -- talked curriculum and methodology, of course! Since I tend to follow many of the recommendations in the book The Well-Trained Mind: A Guide to Classical Education at Home, my friend asked me if the author, Susan Wise Bauer, is a Christian. I knew that she is, and know that as my friend reads further in the above book she will see evidence of that. However, as I thought over our conversation, I remembered an article that Susan Wise Bauer had written on the topic of how her faith impacted the writing of this book.)

Susan Wise Bauer's article, "A Neutral Education?" can be found at this link... http://www.welltrainedmind.com/neutral.php. It's a great article from lots of perspectives. It brings up questions like "Can public education ever truly be neutral?" and "Does using a Christian textbook that you disagree with doctrinally actually cause more trouble for a Christian parent?" Interesting stuff. Just wanted to share. Let me know what you think... :)
