...and when they come for your children for indictrination into whatever belief is in power at the time, you're okay with that?
After all, the quoted bit of logic can be applied in -so- many different situations. It was the basis for the Hitler Youth and the re-education program of the Khmer Rouge.
I'm more concerned about state-run indoctrination programs than parental ignorance. The first rule of totalitarianism is the indoctrination of the young.
