Garry, almost everything in some way "teaches" values and morals, albeit
intentionally or unintentionally. The application of religion in the
schools, for example, teaches a particular set of values and morals, in a
non-voluntary context...in short, as in the old days an inculcation.
The fact is that schools are teaching values, but are not teaching the
particular ones YOU want.
