John Taylor Gatto[1] was a huge early influence for me. You are right about the religious saturation in the homeschool world. They paved the way (legally), so I respect that, but there is a lot more opportunity in home education outside of religious exclusion. The time we get together is amazing, and I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love the fact that they can spend a Thursday building Lego and making stop motion animations, and it is an acceptable educational activity. They get a lot of social time too. People generally worry about that, but it hasn't been an issue. [1] http://www.johntaylorgatto.com/ http://www.johntaylorgatto.com/
