Puritan said: So my question is why doesn't the church require the same thing? I'm not talking about seminary level in-depth learning, I just think that there should be certain requirements. So far I have not witnessed any church "requiring" it's members to attend certain classes.
Would you want this class to take the place of Sunday School? If not when would you hold it? A lot of people would complain if it was held on another day.

Puritan said: As I was researching the 10 Commandments, I did some research on the early American colonial education. What I found was that children were required to go to school and their primers had tons of biblical truths in them including the shorter catechism and the apostles creed. This was done at school, not in the church. I hadn't really thought about that until now and I thought "Wow, that's awesome." So again I ask, why in the world are we not formally training our members in the church today?

Liberals should explain why the early part of our country's history they allowed the schools to teach about God.
