The natural disposition is always to believe. It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing. - Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)
Yes-—Adam Smith, Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759)——one of the first books to be stripped from the canon of Great Books—for our so-called “education” system of America. Can’t have truth and real wisdom instilled in our children. Can’t have minds like the Founders who all had read Adam Smith and grew up on John Locke and the Bible.
Can’t have the ideas which created the most free and just and rational culture (men) of all time-—because free will and individualism (Christian understanding of uniqueness and dignity in every human being) has to be erased for the “collective” mindset of Marx, where idea of mother and father have to be eliminated along with the concepts of the Founders and great men like Adam Smith and John Locke and St. Thomas Aquinas.
Why do you think only White heterosexual Christian males are being vilified and demeaned in our culture? To destroy the concepts that created freedom and individualism and free will in the World. They want to return us all into non-thinking “tribal” mindsets (collective “group” thinkers) so agency is destroyed in our children. That is what Common Core (NCLB/Goals 2000) does-—it destroys the time of great learning of children-—puts them into prisons of programming, where they are hyper-sexualized and agency is destroyed, so virtue is destroyed and they will be ignorant and immoral (lazy/addicted) for life-—just drones for the State.
All the great ideas/thinking (curricula) was destroyed by the communist, humanist, sodomite, John Dewey, who wanted to program children instead of “educate” them——just use conditioning-—use biased “texts” and remove original source documents, so ideas could be warped, and Words (meanings) “changed” so Slavery could be Freedom and Boys could be Girls so children will be made irrational and dumb.
Today’s curricula embeds hate for white Christian males, Western Civ and glorifies evil, vice, and tribal cultures so that virtue is destroyed in our children with dying Traditions and no Wisdom passed on to the next generation.
