I'm trying to imagine Joey and Suzi in third grade forced to declare allegience to the ideology of secular humanism. Can you quote for me the creed that the schools make them recite? If it's long you can just cut and paste the "In effect God does not exist" part.

It also comes under the name of outcome based education. It is not a slogan or a pledge, but an all-encompassing ideology indoctrinated into unwitting students. A further explanation would go long; I recommend checking out "Outcome-Based Education" by Luksik and Hoffsecker. Available from Amazon.com

Reconstruction in Philosophy by John Dewey(1935)

"While it is impossible to retain and recover by deliberate volition old sources of religion and art that have been discredited, it is possible to expedite the development of the vital sources of a religion and art that are yet to be... by the courage of intelligence to follow whither social and scientific changes direct us." (p. 212)

Yes, by "discredited" he was taking about Judaism and Christianity

Wow, you've been so out-classed and out-gunned on this thread it's really quite sad. I haven't seen such a FR pasting in a long time.
