Many of us remember when education in America was successful and rewarding.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Government schools have never been successful. Their foundation has **always** been corrupt. Please follow my reasoning.

1) Modern government schools ( opened in the mid-1800s to early 1900s) have ***ALWAYS** been socialist-funded and government owned and run. If children attend socialist schools they learn to be comfortable with taking money from their neighbor. Gee! If the government can use its police threat to take school taxes from their neighbor, why not use police threat to take money for a thousand other wants and needs? ( Is a “duh” necessary?)

2)While the first schools may have offered a lukewarm and generic Protestantism, by the turn of the last century they were essentially godless in their worldview with a sprinkle of scripture and prayer in the morning. ( We know what Christ does with the lukewarm. He spits them out of His mouth!)I will admit that this godlessness was tempered by having mostly Christian teachers, but today they are utterly godless in their worldview. If children attend godless schools they WILL learn to think godlessly! At best they will learn to compartmentalize their faith, or believe that it is something shameful to be hidden like a bathroom activity.

3) Finally, if children attend government owned and run schools and are **compelled** by law to use them, they will learn to be comfortable with government owning their LIVES and possibly even their SOULS! They learn to be comfortable with government compulsion and police threat. Is it any wonder that 51% of the nation voted for Obama? Is it any wonder that Americans saw Franklin D. Roosevelt as a redeemer and savior?

With in one to three generations of children schooled in socialist-funded, government owned and run schools, that were either lukewarm in their Protestant worldview or even godless, we had:

** the federal reserve
** the IRS
** Woodrow Wilson
** usurpation of large tracts of state land for federal parks
** feminism
** unions
** the failed “One World” League of Nations
** FDR's New Deal
** the abominable U.N.
** Johnson's Great Society
** the abolishment of the gold standard.

Government schools have NEVER been successful.
