    ''Board members remove pages of textbooks if they object on moral grounds to things like bad language or sex before marriage,'' the former teacher said. ''They don't want their children to go on to university or other tertiary colleges because they might be corrupted.''

    Stephen Kirkpatrick, an Exclusive Brethren member and parent of four children at the Wakerley campus, said the group was ``very family oriented'' and ''very protective of the family unit''.

    ''We prefer that children stay within the group and marry within the group,'' he said. ''They can do university or other studies through correspondence but we don't like them studying on campus because they are likely to become totally absorbed with that and become less involved in the family unit.'He said children used television and computers at school, but the internet had special filters.




    I my humble opinion I give them thumbs up.
