I read about that. Some kinda PPDS defense. Wouldn't be the first time, however disturbing that trend is to most of us. Is humanism an organised affair or is it more of an attitude that they are taking? What I'm trying to get at is if they call themselves humanists or is it something that they have been labeled.

It is organized. But it is also pushed by moral relativists of all stripes, and comes under a variety of labels. Too many to list. It is an infinitely nihilistic and sub-divisive philosophy permeating both education and many left-wing social movements.

Sounds to me like a power grab/coup attempt. Thanks again for the info. I'll definately be looking in to those involved and thier ideas.

There are several solutions to the ideological dilemma facing our schools, and all lay in which government can promote what in terms of affirming our rights. Frankly I believe that the constitution does not forbid the US from displaying a purely personal Christian character. After all telling what you think is right is not telling others how to think, and this is what the constitution is all about. Granted a disclaimer would have to be added that America's Federal government does not necessarily follow the word of God lest it blasphemes and violates the separation of church and state. Still I think it is perfectly possible and holy to do such a thing.
I know atheists would feel alienated, but nothing could be further from the truth. Praising the Federal government's right to adopt a fundamental Christian character would reinforce the praising of individual atheists to adopt their own fundamental character. Governance and peaceful personal character should be encouraged at all levels of governance.

We shouldn't be deceived by outward-physical-conventional(popular) thoughts and appearances...these will pass away! Hebrews 4:12 tells how the walls, veils, posturing is easily nailed--pulled apart--knocked down--ridiculed!
