"Public School Education" by Michael Müller is a critical examination of the public education system in 19th-century America from a Catholic perspective. Müller argues that the secular nature of public schools undermines the moral values and religious instruction essential for a child's proper development. He emphasizes the importance of faith-based education, asserting that without religious guidance, children are at risk of losing their ethical foundation. The book advocates for parental authority in choosing an educational path aligned with Christian upbringing and moral teachings. Müller challenges the growing separation of church and state, highlighting the potential dangers of excluding religious influence from the classroom. He calls for education reform that integrates religious instruction into the curriculum, believing that true education must nurture both the intellect and the soul. "Public School Education" is a passionate defense of Catholic education and its role in shaping morally and spiritually grounded individuals.
