Doug Wilson has noted---Farsighted Christians in the nineteenth century saw what was coming. The founders of the government schools were hostile to the historic Christian faith from the very beginning. R.L. Dabney was able to predict in the nineteenth century that all Bibles, prayers and catechisms would ultimately be driven out of the schools. A.A. Hodge said that if the government schools were established, they would prove to be the greatest engine for propagation of atheism that the world had ever seen.

The model for our current Public Education system was pulled right from the heart of socialist states.

Stalin, Hitler and the communist/humanist of this nation can all be quoted in their delight in public education for it's oppressive nature and removal of individual and moral thought.

The systems they discuss are not foreign or opposite of our system, they are almost identical. Born from the same origins and purposes.
