Parents beware: A program called Challenge Day that applauds a culture of victimhood is planting the leftist agenda into young minds under the guise of anti-bullying education.

The program uses the power of peer pressure and groupthink to impress upon high school students the idea that everyone is a victim.

Challenge Day is no small initiative. According to the program’s website, it has been held at more than 2,200 high schools nationwide and reached millions of students.

Challenge Day purports to teach tolerance and acceptance, yet nearly every member of its board of directors and Global Leadership Council is politically left of center.

Of the 17 members of Challenge Day’s board of directors, 15 openly support leftist leaders and causes, and two have an unknown affiliation, according to Federal Election Commission records and personal social media accounts. Of their 22-person Global Leadership Council, 17 of the members support leftist leaders and causes.

There are no good government schools.

All of them by law are godless in their worldview. A child in a godless classroom WILL learn to think and reason godlessly. They must just to cooperate in the godless classroom, read their godless textbooks, and do their godless assignments. How could it be otherwise?

NO government school is religiously neutral because a religiously neutral education is impossible. At the moment the religion taught in government schools is godless secular humanism. For this reason, government schooling is ( and always has been ) a First Amendment and human rights abomination!
