If we want to hold to a standard that every unsavory thing written by Luther must be taught in Lutheran schools, shall we also apply this standard to other religious schools, for instance Roman Catholic? History should be taught accurately, upon that I agree, however demonizing Martin Luther alone for vestigial biases originally acquired by him in a Roman Catholic society, taught to him as a seminarian, priest and monk of that same church, is a bit hypocritical wouldn't you say?

Or you could just teach the TRUTH about Luther - at the very LEAST in Lutheran Colleges and Universities - so the "teachers" called from them might not get blind-sided when some enterprising (Luther-regurgitating) student stumbles upon the same TRUTH using Algore's Interweb thingee.

"We are at liberty to be real, or to be unreal. We may be true or false, the choice is ours. We may wear now one mask and now another, and never, if we so desire, appear with our own true face. But we cannot make these choices with impunity. Causes have effects, and if we lie to ourselves and to others, then we cannot expect to find truth and reality whenever we happen to want them. 
If we have chosen the way of falsity we must not be surprised that truth eludes us when we finally come to need it!"

--Thomas Merton

"The right to search for truth implies also a duty; one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be true."
--Albert Einstein

 

Then again.... maybe the "standard" keepers aren't so enthusiastic about that whole "TRUTH IS GREAT AND WILL PREVAIL" idea which, coinkidinkly, didn't seem to be in their curriculum either.

You’ll NEVER get a Catholic to admit to hypocrisy to where their church is concerned.
