The Dumbing Down of America is a bold and provocative message from the late Dr. D. James Kennedy revealing the threats to education in our nation. Scripture Reference: Hebrews 2:1-9 Feature Description: The Bible’s clear that ônly fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.ö But God has largely been removed from public education. Educational leaders are pushing an agenda that’s turning our children from faith in God and His purpose for their lives. Let’s take a look at what that agenda is and the solutions put and to it.

Does anyone else have a problem with YouTube when trying to skip forward in a video?

I always get a spinning cursor that never starts replay at the new spot - it just keeps spinning.

Some of the most effective criticism of the cultural trends in our country tends to come from Reformed theologians and ministers. In 1964, Rousas Rushdoony, a conservative Presbyterian author, wrote The Messianic Character of American Education, where he decried the secularist drift of public education. Francis Schaffer, a Presbyterian minister who established a retreat for Christians in Switzerland called L’Abri, wrote several books in the 1960s and 1970s pointing out the rise of secular humanism in American society. Neither Rushdoony nor Schaffer lived long enough to see the America of this decade, but they would not be surprised.

Excellent video. Dr. Kennedy is a great preacher. Although the common core ship has sailed, things are much much worse today. Only God can stop it. To me it seems He’s just going to let Americans have what they want or allow until it all collapses. We really have become a truly ignorant, reprobate nation.

How are people destroyed from a lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6)?
