"می‌ترسم که مدارس دروازه‌های جهنم شوند، مگر اینکه با جدیت در توضیح کتاب مقدس و حک کردن آن در قلب جوانان تلاش کنند."

Simplified meaning
This quote suggests that if schools don't focus on teaching important moral and spiritual lessons from religious texts, they could end up causing more harm than good. Imagine a school where students only learn about subjects like math and science, but never about kindness, honesty, or respect for others. Without these valuable lessons, students might grow up making poor choices, hurting others, or living unhappily because they lack a moral compass. For instance, during the colonial period in America, many early schools emphasized not just reading and writing but also character and ethical teachings from the Bible. This was because the founders believed that knowing right from wrong was essential for creating a good and just society. Applying this idea today means that while it's important to learn academic skills, it's equally important for education to include lessons on values and morals, so young people can grow into responsible and caring adults.
