This is what has me worried. After 5 generations of students, most who are now parents, don’t know what a proper education is. At first, the argument was that the parents had the responsibility to teach good moral values to their children, carried forward from previous generations. Those values don’t exist now, not even with the teachers. What does exist is what our young learn from the movie and television industry, reinforced by the main stream news media.
Our educational institutions are saturated with political correctness in an effort to keep everybody happy and to stay away from lawsuits by the ACLU and many of the parents. We are what we learn! Privatization of the schools would help greatly but that does not fit the Marxist agenda of the left in our government. After all, they derive much of their power by keeping our young dumbed down and unable to think beyond their “herd” mentality. Evangelization by our church leaders is one hope. Another is good leadership in our government to provide the proper God centered moral direction. Depending on man made laws only, would be a disaster, well documented by history which is not correctly taught to our young. What is being taught is to care about self only, since there is no Ten Commandments, no Heaven and no Hell. The final result is little accountability by anyone under 18 or the people who are not guided by faith in our Creator and the concrete laws of the 10 Commandments. This notion is compared to a person who says: 1. I can’t help I ran over that child, I was drunk and didn’t know what I was doing.
2. I’m not responsible for drowning my 5 children, I was spaced out from drugs.
3. So I threw my baby in the dumpster, I’m only 15 and can’t take care of him.
4. I aborted (read killed), my baby because it’s my right as a woman. Besides, it’s legal. The Supreme court said so!
