role of the State or Government in the lives of the citizens of that State from whom the State claims its legitimacy. Specifically, parents are required to educate their children and thus many send their children to a public school. At that school the children might be required to read the Bible to which their parents might object. Thus the State is placed in a position of compelling some of its citizens to perform an action with which those citizens disagree. To much of such disagreement has, in history at least, led to revolutions and the fall of such governments from whose fall chaos often ensues. In trying to better the lives of its citizens the State paradoxically by the law of "Unexpected Consequences" sometimes achieves the opposite results.
