The data has been posted elsewhere in this post but here is some more below [0]. Why do you assume religious homeschoolers would perform worse than non-religious homeschoolers? Thanks for downvote :)

[0] 78% of peer-reviewed studies on academic achievement show homeschool students perform statistically significantly better than those in institutional schools (Ray, 2017). Source and lots of other good tidbits: https://www.nheri.org/research-facts-on-homeschooling/#:~:te....)

You did provide some “data” and it doesn’t mention your specific claim.
I’m not sure why you would even distinguish religious home schoolers from non religious. Some quick googling shows that 90% of home school parents are religious which would back up my claim. I’m sorry you hate religious people?
Your specific claim was not about religious versus non religious students. It was about a very narrow subset of students.

Your continual assumptions about me are both wrong and offensive.
