Five Jews have now told you we all attended Sunday School. I have even shown that Sunday School refers to religious education. You moved the goalposts to "common usage" rather than just admitting you didn't know. And, if you had gone to the wiki page like you instructed Oberliner for "Sunday School", you would have seen, "Hebrew School (also called "Sunday School" by Reform Jews)" in the related links.

He himself states, to paraphrase, that "it's not working". That's his subject matter.
