CONTROL OF THE FUTURE THROUGH CONTROL OF THE SCHOOLS
American Life League ^ | American Life League

Posted on 02/07/2005 3:46:06 AM PST by DaveTesla

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......

C.S. Lewis, The Abolition of Man.

Let's see - my local school district spends $12k a year to educate every child in the district. Could I just have $10k of that to send my kid someplace I'd want her ?

Hello, they're taking YOUR tax money and spending it anyhow. Why do you care where it's spent as long as the kid is getting an education ? Isn't that how public schools started ?

Didn't know you advocated welfare. It's called the difference between a personal choice and a tax expense.
Geez 12k though. That's well over twice as much as they spend here (almost but not quite 3 times as much).
Yeah, maybe I should choose where the taxes go that I pay for the highway. I need one in front of my house anyway. Oh yeah, maybe I should sponsor a soldier so that they would send him where I want him to go (don't get the wrong idea on this one--I'm being sarcastic and am VERY VERY pro-military). Since we're into paying for personal choices, let's just pay for all those abortions (not). Maybe I could ask that all my federal tax dollars be used for projects in my town, not for others in other states. The truth is that probably over 90% of my taxes go to things that I don't use much. I could go on, but won't.

As far as taking my tax money, at least in my district I can see where it's spent. With some of the alternative ways, I don't.

In my area, there are a ton of choices for education. In fact, we have more nowadays than ever before, certainly many more than 20 years ago when I came through the system. However, EACH PARENT already has a choice on how their child does in education. It depends on their attitude, perception, efforts, and how important education is to them.
That doesn't take any tax money at all.

Right - so get the taxpayer out of the equation and return education to the private sector where it belongs. Then we can all send our kids wherever we want.

Yes, let's just separate everyone. Wait a minute, wasn't that tried before? Then everyone can get into the act. Pretty soon the gays will have a school, the terrorists will have one (actually there was one funded by vouchers in one state), and so on and so on. Yes, let's just get everyone away from all those bad kids. Let's use kids for profit and see how much money we can make from them. Sounds like a plan.

Yes, we all have to get our way or else... Geez, I wish I had your freedom to complain and b---- and moan about kids. But I don't. I haven't gotten my way yet in that department (for 10 years). Be thankful for the privilege and opportunity you have to raise them. I would just like to have the chance to complain like you.

It would be great if every parent could babysit them 24/7 but barring that what to do?

Have them go into the ministry or become priests or nuns. That way, they can get their religious education throughout their life and not have to work at those dreadful secular jobs with those dreadful publicly-educated workers. Better not send them to the army either. Over 90% of them were probably publicly educated. They're only doing nonimportant things like protecting the country.

Well you still haven't told me why it is the parents fault
that the teachers cant teach children how to read.
And why it is suddenly necessary to inform them about
not only sex but about homosexual sodomy at that.
And declaring this lifestyle to be normal and good.

My children are fine.
I removed them from the sociopathic child abusers and molesters running the public schools.

Why get into a pissing contest with a bunch of skunks.
Lets start a web site and post all the perversion,
corruption, abuse, sex with minors, anti-american
and anti-christian filth that is being done to our
nations children in the schools and university's.
we could fill up terabytes.
I have an OC45 and 12 cluster servers.

I realize it's a waste of time trying to get some clowns to answer questions, but I've got the flu and nothing better to do right now. :-) Besides that, everybody can see these clowns for who they really are.

As for starting another website where clowns can't comment, I'm all for it - you definitely have enough hardware...

While I can't comment for all homeschoolers, besides the excellent customized education our children get, we want to keep them innocent as long as possible. Some of the folks that now homeschool started too late and their kids are already jaded, but their parents are finally doing what they think is in the best interest of their kids.

And when we think our children are ready, we'll educate them about the more mature issues in life. And one thing they won't hear at our school is this: "how do you know you don't like homosexual sex if you've never tried it."

One of twenty five incidents since last summer.

Child abuse.

Tenn. Teacher Accused of Sleeping With 13-Year-Old Student

Tuesday, February 08, 2005



McMINNVILLE, Tenn. — A Warren County elementary teacher has been charged with having a consensual sexual relationship with one of her students, a 13-year-old boy.

Pamela Rogers Turner (search), 27, was charged Monday with 15 counts of sexual battery by an authority figure and 13 counts of statutory rape (search). All the charges involved the same boy.

Turner teaches physical education and coached girls basketball at Centertown Elementary, a Warren County school with grades kindergarten through eight in McMinnville.

District Attorney General Dale Potter said investigators believe some of the offenses happened at the school and some at the boy's home.

Turner lived at the boy's house "for a brief period of time when she was moving from residence to residence," Potter said Tuesday. The boy's parents knew she was living there but didn't know anything about a sexual relationship, Potter said.

Potter declined to comment on the nature of the relationship between Turner and her student, but he said investigators discovered multiple acts of sexual intercourse.

"It's attracting attention because it's a female teacher, and that's a little out of the ordinary," Potter said. "But for us, a sex abuse case is a sex abuse case."

Turner was recently divorced from Chris Turner, who is the head boys basketball coach at Warren County High School, according to the Southern Standard newspaper in McMinnville.

Turner was arrested Monday in Clarkrange, her hometown in Fentress County about 55 miles northeast of McMinnville, Potter said.

Conviction on all counts could be punished by up to 100 years in prison. But Potter said it was more likely that a conviction would mean a minimum of a year to several years in prison.

Arraignment was set for Feb. 23.

And one thing they won't hear at our school is this: "how do you know you don't like homosexual sex if you've never tried it." I do applaud your efforts as homeschoolers and towards your children. You must be good parents. That being said, my parents did exactly the same things you described WHILE sending their children to those same public schools (inner-city at that)as did my granparents and aunts and uncles, cousins, second cousins, brothers and sisters, etc. They actually thought their sons and daughters could be good examples to others (as many Christian students are in my hometown). We learned about the more mature issues later when the time was right too (such as that s-- is a meant to be a beautiful expression of love between a man and wife only). how do you know you don't like homosexual sex if you've never tried it.Any teacher that would ever ask this would probably (or at least should be) fired. I don't know of any schools in the two states I know about that would ever say this. I know that I would never even think of saying it to my students (and no I'm not you know what--the very idea repulses me).

I'm not of the opinion that kids can make good examples for the other kids. When they're old enough, sure. Before that, and with what's going on in the schools today, no way, I won't subject my kids to that.

Imagine this happening to your kid: Boy sexually assaulted by six-year-old classmate in school bathroom

Where does a kid learn that behavior?

Take a look at the teachers spelling and grammer;

Post #88
The problem is they are tested on their indoctrination.
They are graded on their indoctrination. Their
indoctrination becomes a part of them. The time they are in
school is more than when they are with you. YOU lose from
EVERY persepctive and as they get older you have less and
less control.


The problem is they are tested on their indoctrination.
This sentence is passive.

They are graded on their indoctrination.
This sentence is passive.

Consider revising these two passive and fragmented sentences to,
"The problem is they are tested and graded on their indoctrination."

******************************************************
YOU lose from EVERY persepctive and as they get older
you have less and less control.


In this sentence the word perspective is misspelled and
the comma after older is missing.

This sentence should read,
"YOU lose from EVERY perspective and as they get older, you
have less and less control."

Post #88

"My super-secret decoder ring helps me indoctinate the kids I teach to learn how to read and write and other terrible things like working hard, having strong families, respecting others, obeying parents, etc. Maybe I should turn it off."

It is indoctrinate not indoctinate.
Your first sentence has more 25 words and is almost
illegible due to its run on.

Posted by scripter to moog On News/Activism 02/08/2005 7:15:54 PM PST · 295 of 297 I'm not of the opinion that kids can make good examples for the other kids. When they're old enough, sure. Before that, and with what's going on in the schools today, no way, I won't subject my kids to that. Imagine this happening to your kid: Boy sexually assaulted by six-year-old classmate in school bathroom Where does a kid learn that behavior? I AM of the opinion that kids can make good examples for others. I see it in my classroom every day and have seen it EVERY year I have taught. I saw it growing up. I saw it in my family. These were good who had been taught good values by their parents and who professed courage to stand up for the right if bad situations were encountered. Yes, like anyone, I have had situations where that was tested, but my parents did teach me right from wrong. As far as the article, it never seems to occur that maybe the behavior has to do with the kids' parents too (not the victim--the kid who did it).
