Are All Curriculum Materials Religious?
You may have noticed that many religious people homeschool. You may be asking yourself whether all the curriculum materials, Christian or otherwise, are religious. Of course, everyone is, in a sense, religious. This is true in that every person has a set of beliefs that informs his or her behavior and ways of dealing with the world and God, regardless of whether he or she believes in a supernatural power. Yet some people are more aware than others of their own religious ideas; some are more confident about them; some are more vocal about them; and some are more aware that religious ideas saturate all educational materials and institutions. That being said, it is true that most homeschoolers these days are confidently religious. At this historical moment, most homeschoolers are Christians. However, not all are. Many homeschoolers do not focus on religious ideas or reasons for homeschooling, and many curriculum materials do not focus on religious themes or coherent religious belief syste
