Do you have resources for religious curriculum as opposed to secular? We are Hindu but I have had good luck relating with Christian resources


I am curious; what exactly do you mean by "religious curriculum" ? As a Hindu myself, i know of only the traditional "Gurukuls/Patashalas".


No, only secular.

Nice. I take it you've never met a Christian homeschooler? Comments like that reek of coastal elitism. I know, you read an article about Christians once on Vox.


I was subjected to christian homeschooling and christian private elementary schools. What he says is accurate.

Addendum: One of my wife's oldest friends is a christian who homeschools all of her children. She buys both secular and christian science curriculums so she can explain to her kids what the christian materials get wrong. But hey, I'm sure you read an article about this stuff once. =)


Not all Christians agree on evolutionism, creationism, and feminism. So yeah, I'm nodding my head at the parent comment that said the grandfather comment reeks of coastal elitism. The truth of the matter is that there is a lot of diversty in homeschooling approaches and curricula among Christians (even evangelicals).


I have met several. I can verify the creationism part in particular and what it meant for geology and astronomy. I haven't met any women who went through that type of schooling, so I can't vouch for the math part.


Interesting... as a Hindu evolution is perfectly integrated into our religion. Some "Hindus" still don't honor and respect women, but that doesn't match the teachings at all. Mata Amritanandamayi has some good videos lately about this


As a south american catholic, we do the same.
