Religious beliefs have little bearing on teaching somebody tolerance. You can do so without teaching religion beyond mere academics.

I know you didn't directly say otherwise, but there are lots of liberal home-schoolers. In the UK they are in fact stereotyped as left-wing extremists.

In Texas, private schools and homeschooling kiddos are expected to meet the same standards as public schools.
Still though, I was at a Catholic School for a UIL event... freaked me the fuck out.

Presuming that is a response to me.
Please try reading closely, it will help with comprehension.
I said, in a follow up post "taught as fact" in a place of public education.

Of course, thats four, compared to the myriad state and private secular schools on that list. None of the Ivys, iirc. Though, to be fair, I haven't checked.

True, but those four are very, very prestigious universities. I'm sure I could identify many other schools affiliated with religions that are highly ranked but honestly, if you have the brains and the academic record you can get in anywhere even with a disciplinary record from high school. And of course, depending on your religion, attending a university affiliated with your religion may carry far more weight than a degree from an Ivy League school, not that they are the be-all, end-all of education anyways.
Truth be told, after your first job out of college nobody cares where you went to school or what your GPA was, or anything else related to your time there.
