"Israeli's government funds three streams of education; regular state schools, ultra-orthodox religious schools, and Israeli Arab schools.
Back in 1960, only around 15 per cent of Israeli children were enrolled in religious or Arab schools.
That figure is now around 50 per cent. In 30 years, it will be almost 80 per cent. That is a frightening statistic for the nation of Israel.
...
In religious schools, children don't learn mathematics, science, or English; only the Bible. All day, every day. And Haredi men are expected to - and do - continue that Bible study for the rest of their lives.
It's all funded by the taxpayers. And the taxpayers are... secular Israelis."
I found this article very interesting. Just wondering if anyone has any first hand experience with Isreal.

This is MY Land. God Gave it to me thousands of years ago. I've already picked out the home down there that I'm gonna take over as soon as we drive them out.
Why religious logic is absolutely dangerous
