“Meet Ray. We’ll call Ray a conscientious objector, because he acts out of conscience. People confine this term to those who object to military service. But why do those persons object? A conscientious objector is someone who wants the right to divorce a service provider or institution. He is disgusted by what is done in his name under the rubric of democracy, appalled at what is done with the money extracted from him in taxes. He wants to terminate his support. You may think Ray is noble until I tell you to what he objected: State schooling, otherwise known as ‘public schools.'”
