They must attend a school within the public school system?

Absolute joke question.

Yeah.    Am I missing something here?  What is the argument against private schools?  I've never even heard of this being an "issue" before.

Because some private schools are Christian, the authoritarian athiests think private schools should be banned.

"ZEE STATE MUST HOLD ZA MONOPOLY ON ZA EDUCATION OF OUR YOUTHS."

Yeah, pretty much. The Religious Right has totally infiltrated the home-school movement, for instance.

Well, that's not where I'm confusded.  I don't know anything about home-schooling, so I can't opine.  But what's the argument against private schooling?

Not such a bad thing.  You don't have to worry about what to wear when you wake up in the morning.  Secondly, it has a psychological effect -- letting the kids know that they're in school, and not hanging out.  Thirdly, some public schools require uniforms.
