Public Schools and the American Idea on Religion
A defense of nonsectarian public schooling rooted in American citizenship and church state separation. The piece argues that religious instruction in schools risks sectarianism, cites historical shifts toward church‑state separation, warns against coercive or dogmatic teaching, and suggests home-based moral formation as essential, while preserving public schools as secular institutions for all.
