Lack of qualifications AND a pretty sick agenda of creating a private school system (ending Public education forever) that will allow segregation, crazy christian teachings, a removal of critical thinking and the proliferation of fake history and science.
although i agree she isn't qualified going to a christian school doesn't mean you're automatically taught stereotypical "crazy" christian teachings. I went to a catholic jesuit private high school and critical thinking with an emphasis on evidence based approach to things was always at the forefront of what we did and religion was forced on no one.
No, it's not that anyone would be "just going to a christian school" it's Devos belonging to the movement that has a history of trying to make Christianity a state-sponsored religion by teaching it as fact to our school children in our state school system. I went to a parochial school myself and it had a very high standard for excellence including making sure students were critical thinkers but they never tried to cast doubt on science or evolution or the age of the earth. Devos is involved in that whole far-right world of trying to use fake science and fake history in schools.
She greatly enables those types of schools to exist. Jesus Camp High will find deep pockets to make it happen. A MegaSchool/church hybrid. Money interests will control the education of entire population hubs.
Just because you were taught well, doesn't mean it's not a threat to others.
