Excellent article. Must read.

THE SOURCE AND ORIGIN of our nation’s problems.

And until we can deal with the source of the brainwashing of our youth - the education system controlled by Marxist/atheists - all we do is only putting a band-aid on our problems.

The source of the education system is actually higher education, where all the “lower education” teachers are taught and brainwashed themselves......

I have yet to see/hear ANY CONSERVATIVE address this and provide a solution........EVER!

I realize it may be a silly point but I do not beleive it is a war against Christianity it is a war against Christ Himself. We knew or should have known it was going to happen, I think the surprise is that it is happening in our lifetime. We must be strong and fight the good fight. We are the Lord’s warriors.

The origin of the war against Christianity in the United States can be traced back to the early days of the public school movement when Unitarians, Owenite socialists and atheists, and Hegelian pantheists vehemently rejected the God-centered worldview of the Founding Fathers

I agree. Good article

And John Dewey was the guy to lead the charge (in the public schools/education).

And that is why a majority of Americans are returning to the religious beliefs of the Founding Fathers

Once again, I fail to understand the religious authority of the founders of the United States. Saudi Arabia was founded by moslems. Does that make islam the "true religion" for Saudi Arabia?

Instead of looking to the founders (or any other human beings) for their religion, Americans--and all people--should look to G-d.

, it is obvious that the public schools have become not religion-neutral but militantly anti-Christian.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Government schooling has** never** been religiously neutral. Why? Answer: Because a religiously neutral education is impossible.

Our earliest government schools offered up a lukewarm and generic Protestantism. We know what Christ does with the lukewarm. He spits them out of His mouth.

By my grandmother's day ( born 1894) her Philadelphia government schools were godlessly secular with occasional nods to God in the morning prayer and other events.

By the mid-1960s they were utterly godless. Children who attend godless schools **must** learn to think and reason godless merely to cooperate with classroom and home assignments.

“The tendency is to hold that this system must be altogether secular. The atheistic doctrine is gaining currency, even among professed Christians and even among some bewildered Christian ministers, that an education provided by the common government for the children of diverse religious parties should be entirely emptied of all religious character. The Protestants object to the government schools being used for the purpose of inculcating the doctrines of the Catholic church, and Romanists object to the use of the Protestant version of the Bible and to the inculcation of the peculiar doctrines of the Protestant churches. The Jews protest against the schools being used to inculcate Christianity in any form, and the atheists and agnostics protest against any teaching that implies the existence and moral government of God. It is capable of exact demonstration that if every party in the State has the right of excluding from the public schools whatever he does not believe to be true, then he that believes most must give way to him that believes least, and then he that believes least must give way to him the believes absolutely nothing, no matter in how small a minority the atheists and the agnostics may be. It is self-evident that on this scheme, if it is consistently and persistently carried out in all parts of the country, the United States system of national popular education will be the most efficient and wide instrument for the propagation of atheism which the world has ever seen.” Puritan Father Dr. A.A. Hodge 1890

“I am as sure as I am of the fact of Christ’s reign that a comprehensive and centralized system of national education separated from religion, as is now commonly proposed,will prove the most appalling enginery for the propagation of anti-Christian and atheistic unbelief, and of anti-social, nihilistic 4. ethics, individual, social, and political, which this sin-rent world has ever seen.” Puritan Father Dr. A.A. Hodge 1890
