Ulysses Grant:
...Great stuff. Thanks for posting.<br /><br />Ulysses Grant:<br /><br /><b>Encourage free schools and resolve that not one dollar of the money appropriated to their support shall be appropriated to the support of any sectarian school; that neither the state or nation, not both combined, shall support institutions of learning other than those sufficient to afford to every child in the land the opportunity of a good common-school education, unmixed with sectarian, pagan, or atheistical dogma.<br /><br />Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and private schools entirely supported by private contributions. Keep the church and state forever separate. With these safeguards I believe the battles which created the Army of the Tennessee will not have been fought in vain.</b><br /><br />Today's Republicans are the ones breaking with pretty consistent history.<br /><br />--Bryan DougAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
