CONTROL OF THE FUTURE THROUGH CONTROL OF THE SCHOOLS

The Humanist Mission of Our Schools.

I think the most important factor leading us to a
secular society has been the educational factor. Our
schools may not teach Johnny to read properly, but the
fact that Johnny is in school until he is 16 tends to
lead toward the elimination of religious superstition.
The average child now acquires a high school education,
and this militates against Adam and Eve and all other
myths of alleged history.

Humanist writer Paul Blanshard.

Extending State Control.

Humanists know that the future of our country rests
with our children. Therefore, in order to control the
future of our country, they must control the minds of
our children. And the easiest way to control our
children is to control the schools.

Radical left-wing writers, including Alexander Cockburn
and James Ridgeway, incessantly rail against
parental "interference" in schools, because, as they
openly acknowledge, "The Left can't survive politically
without a public school system to spread leftist
attitudes."[3]

The New Curriculum.

The future of any nation lies with its youth. So
corrupt them; since religion teaches moral virtue,
erode the churches and divert the young from religion.
Make them interested only in themselves. Get them
involved in drugs, alcohol, and sex. Get them addicted
to privileges and rights.

Vladimir Lenin's "Rule for Revolution" #1.

"Reading, writing and arithmetic" no longer figure
prominently in today's exotic public school curricula.
Children who attend public school will be compelled to
learn the following;

• that homosexuality is a perfectly acceptable
alternative lifestyle;
.....SNIP......

"one who is interested in exchanging points of view on a topic, in order to develop a better-informed point of view on that topic"

Very well put......You may recall I asked what your point of view was, not what books are you reading.

"Unless and until you try reading up on the topic of public education,"
You mean reading what you read, else, you have no worldly idea what I read much less what I've read about education.

"I really have no time for you."

Thereezzzzzzzza Heintz gonna be uspset you co-opted her line. LOL

[DaveTesla]

Who cares?
My utmost first responsibility is to protect and to teach
my children how to be useful citizens and family
members.

As far as the the tax money, the corrupt schools can put it where they put there fists now days.

Render unto Cesar.....

[Oberon]

I don't know but his post's are getting more DemUnderground and leftist as we go along.

I couldn't help but notice that myself. Ah, well...live and learn.

[Smartaleck]

"Yet no matter how much misdirection you use, it's not about me. You brought it up"

Yes, I brought up the question. Generally when one asks a question they are seeking an answer not another question.

"When your kids confront a homosexual, what will their response be?"

What is it in the question you don't understand or need clarification on? I didn't say anything about school or out of school, that was your means to misdirect. But, to further clarify......a kid say under 18 confronted anytime anywhere.

[DaveTesla]

Have a nice day.

BTW: Please don't ever come near my childern.

[John Lenin]

Now they will control religion too. We're doomed !

"School itself is an unjust intrusion on people's lives"

Education is an unjust intrusion on people?

[scripter]

As DT said, our primary concern is with the education of our kids, not somebody else's kids. In taking our kids out of public school we are indeed taking away some control from the public schools in monetary form.

[JeffAtlanta]

The government schools wouldn't last a month if every Christian family pulled their children out. Most depend on the state's daily attendance funds, as well as local property taxes. Take those little Christian bodies out of those desks, and the school systems wouldn't be getting the bucks from the state's taxpayers.

You have to pay school taxes (through your property taxes) whether you have your kid in school or not. There are some exceptions but very rare.

Pulling kids out wouldn't make a dent - its the ballot box that matters.

You said to Oberon:

You may recall I asked what your point of view was, not what books are you reading

And I asked you what your point of view was and you continually dodge and weave.

[scripter]

The context was schools, children and homosexuals. And you asked:

When your kids confront a homosexual, what will their response be?

And you refuse to answer at what age, in school, that should happen. Your continued misdirection is noted.

[cinives]

Thanks, we all do what we can with what we have or can get. I applaud anyone who manages to get their kids thru to age 22 and beyond with their (kids') minds and souls intact, no matter the route.

[Smartaleck]

"As DT said, our primary concern is with the education of our kids,"

I would hope that that is the primary concern of all parents.

[Smartaleck]

"And I asked you what your point of view was and you continually dodge and weave."

Which begs the question. It's a red herring dude.

[scripter]

It's a dodge, dude.

[Smartaleck]

"Your continued misdirection is noted."

At what age do you, Scripter, think abstinence should be taught...or is that not something worthwhile pursuing?

[cinives]

Wow, what a great story. I reiterate your assertion: a learned skill ... can [be] acquire[d] ... if you wish.

This is something that has always bugged me: why do people assume that you need a certificate for every little event in life. While you might certainly want a surgeon to have a certificate, you know that certificate has a practical component to it. Alternatively, a teaching, or psychology, or chemical engineer, or whatever, only stands for the classroom part of the training.

We used to train lots of professions by the apprentice and internship routes, but now you have to go sit in a classroom even for the mundane skill of hair cutting.

We live in an overprofessionalized society.

[scripter]

Again, no matter how much misdirection you use, it's not about me. You brought up the issue of children in school confronting homosexuals and now you're dodging and weaving when asked for an appropriate age range.

[Smartaleck]

There's an answer here. Read a book as I was asked to do.

"How Can We Talk About That?: Overcoming Personal Hangups So We Can Teach Kids The Right Stuff About Sex and Morality"

[scripter]

Read a book as I was asked to do.

Yet that answer wasn't good enough for you, and you went on to denigrate and insult the poster. This is yet another dodge.
