"Knowledge unenlightened by the truth of God is dark knowledge.  We may have a B.S., an M.S., and a Ph.D., but without the Lord all we have is dark information. It may help navigate us in the world of darkness, but by itself will never lead us to the truth. Apart from the revelation of the Spirit of God, none of us could ever find our way into the light. Darkly educated people are like those whom Paul described to his young protégé', Timothy, as 'always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth.'" (2 Timothy 3:7)  -- Rediscovering the Kingdom by Myles Munroe

"What Our Nation's Founding Fathers Can Teach Us About the Shocking State of Today's Educational System - By Blair Parke - "We humans are spared the hardship of discovering the world from scratch...." ...Hence, the tragedy of the forfeiture of America's Judeo-Christian heritage and biblically based culture as framed and devised by the founders through the 17th and 18th centuries, a dramatic event resulting in great loss and misfortune. You may recall American Founder Fisher Ames' (1758-1808) evaluation of public schools in 1789: "We have a dangerous trend beginning to take place in our education. We're starting to put more and more textbooks into our schools. We've become accustomed to putting little books into the hands of children, containing fables and moral lessons. We're spending less time in the classroom on the Bible, which should be the principal text in our schools." It's worth noting that the Honorable Fisher Ames was co-author of the First Amendment to the Constitution. The reason America's founders took such an unequivocal position on biblically based education was so "that it may go well with you and with your children after you forever, when you do what is good and right in the sight of the Lord your God" (Deut. 12:28).

Selling a million copies a year for over 100 years, McGuffey's Readers were the mainstay of public education in America. Generations of school children read them, making them some of the most influential books of all time. They were written by William McGuffey, who died MAY 4, 1873. A professor at the University of Virginia and president of Ohio University, he began one of nation's first teachers' associations. In the foreword of McGuffey's Reader, 1836, he wrote: "The Christian religion is the religion of our country. From it are derived our prevalent notions of the character of God, the great moral governor of the universe. On its doctrines are founded the peculiarities of our free institutions." In McGuffey's 5th Eclectic Reader, 1879, is a lesson by William Ellery Channing, titled Religion The Only Basis of Society: "How powerless conscience would become without the belief of a God...Erase all thought and fear of God from a community, and selfishness and sensuality would absorb the whole man. Appetite, knowing no restraint...would trample in scorn on the restraints of human laws... Man would become...what the theory of atheism declares him to be-a companion for brutes."  

On September 21, 1924, America's 30th President, Calvin Coolidge, addressed the Holy Name Society in Washington, D.C., saying:  "The worst evil that could be inflicted upon the youth of the land would be to leave them without restraint and completely at the mercy of their own uncontrolled inclinations. Under such conditions education would be impossible, and all orderly development intellectually or morally would be hopeless." Coolidge continued: "The Declaration of Independence...claims...the ultimate source of authority by stating...they were...'appealing to the Supreme Judge of the World for the rectitude of' their 'intentions.'... The foundations of our independence and our Government rests upon basic religious convictions. Back of the authority of our laws is the authority of the Supreme Judge of the World, to whom we still appeal." President Coolidge concluded: "It seems to me perfectly plain that the authority of law, the right to equality, liberty and property, under American institutions, have for their foundation reverence for God. If we could imagine that to be swept away, these institutions of our American government could not long survive."

How To Raise Kids When Leaving Public Schools Is Not An Easy Option - ...It feels hopeless. What can you do? If this is you, the only solution is to get very serious about training your kids. It’s Going to Take Very Active Parenting. ...We know, you’re tapped out by work and carpool and all those darn school Parental Involvement Program hours. But if you don’t want your children devoured by the woke beast, this is a must. On socialism, abortion, sexual ideology, critical race theory, evolution, and all the other hot issues, you need to have the facts straight. So if you are clueless, it’s time to educate yourself.    The only way your kids survive the left’s assault on their childhood is if you are engaged in the battle with them. Are you raising children in America today? Are you also not insane? If so, you have surely asked yourself: How can I protect my kids from the race, sex, and anti-American garbage rampant in our society these days? This question is especially pressing for those of us who send our kids to public school. We’ve watched the teacher video encouraging kids to pledge allegiance to the gay pride flag, and read reports of entire districts propagandizing that white-skinned people are guilty of “the spirit murdering of Black and Brown children.” We don’t need Twitter to tell us the schools are crazy, our kids do. We have seen the Black Lives Matter school curriculum promoting “queer affirmation” in the name of so-called anti-racism. We have attended the inane “student-led conference” with our kids’ pride-pin-adorned advisory teachers, and observed the classrooms emblazoned with leftist, anti-capitalism, and BLM propaganda. 

Chinese Communist Party Targets American Kids by Infiltrating K-12 Schools - By Samantha Aschieris - Congressional Republicans and Asia policy experts are sounding the alarm over the Chinese Communist Party’s influence on K-12 education as well as colleges in America through what are called Confucius Classrooms and Confucius Institutes.

Action Civics Is Teaching Our Kids to Protest - By Katharine Gorka - Many young Americans seem to have a growing disdain for our country. According to a Gallup poll, pride in our nation has declined, especially among young adults. ...One reason this is happening is what our children are being taught in school. And that doesn't mean only in college. We all know college campuses have become centers of radical indoctrination, but now it is happening in K-12 as well, through something called action civics, a new movement in civic education. As educator Thomas Lindsay explains, action civics was born in 2010 when six organizations set out to redefine civic education. Dissatisfied with traditional civics, which depended on book learning, they wanted to create a new civics that was more experiential. They wanted kids to engage, get involved, get active.    The problem is that without a solid understanding of why the Founders were so deliberate in designing our self-governing republic, with its separation of powers to prevent any one branch from becoming tyrannical, or establishing the rule of law so that we would not be subject to the whims of any one person, we risk falling into the same traps of other, less just regimes. Indeed it is no accident that today's protests are looking more like the French Revolution, with its guillotines and beheadings, than the American Revolution, with its debates and deliberations.   

Public Schools Are Avoiding CRT Ban With Trojan Horse Of ‘Social Emotional Learning’ By: Stephanie Lundquist-Arora  - Social Emotional Learning, or SEL, is the primary weapon leftists use to politically indoctrinate our children at public schools.

Critical Race Theory is an outgrowth of the European Marxist school of critical theory, critical race theory is an academic movement which seeks to link racism, race, and power. Unlike the Civil Rights movement, which sought to work within the structures of American democracy, critical race theorists challenge the very foundations of the liberal order, such as rationalism, constitutional law, and legal reasoning. Critical race theorists argue that American social life, political structures, and economic systems are founded upon race, which (in their view) is a social construct.     

     CriticalRace.org is a resource for parents and students concerned about how Critical Race Theory, and implementation of Critical Race Training, impacts education. We have compiled the most comprehensive database to empower parents and students. We have researched and documented Critical Race Training in over 200 colleges and universities in the United States. The website explains Critical Race Theory itself and provides resources to learn more. Additionally, it allows users to look up the steps their school has taken to mandate Critical Race Training in different parts of the college experience, from changing academic codes of conduct to funding “equity” projects. Not all of the colleges and universities in this database and map have Critical Race Training.  

5 Ways Democrat Policies Work To Destroy Children’s Lives - By J.B. Shurk - What kind of society does this to children? Such casual cruelty disguised as “protection” is nothing short of horrendous. It is as if we have stepped 2,000 years back in time to an age when children were not regarded as people at all.

Normalizing Perversion -By M.B. Mathews - The reasons for the Left's perverse sexualizing of very young children make sense only if you are sexually neurotic. None of it makes sense if you are a rational, healthy, sexually normal person. For example, what is to be gained by first graders learning about drag queens and transsexuality? How is a child's life improved, how is the culture improved when children whose brains are not physically equipped to process such information get exposed to it? If it is the hope of sexualizers that children will be more accepting of perversity, to what end? ...It is a goal of the Left to strip sexuality of its decency, its sanctity, and its beauty. Because they abhor the very idea of a God who holds people responsible for the breaking of His commandments and biblical principles, they do all they can to reduce sexual behavior to an animal act, a bodily function. It's very Darwin, very Rousseau, two heroes of the Left. These two men still speak to us from the grave with their fetid breath. Depriving children of their childhood by sexualizing them is a crime worthy of the worst possible punishment.

The Grim Cost of Grooming Children - By Nate Jackson - As more children are taught to struggle with gender identity, more of them develop other mental health problems.  ...Pardon us for pointing out who started the ever-expanding culture war and uses children as political pawns. It wasn't conservatives, who want to conserve God's design for sex and family. It was "liberals," who went so far to the left that they began grooming children into deviant lifestyle choices before the kids are even old enough to play on the playground alone. Until the ones perpetuating this madness stop doing so, everyone will suffer — some of our children most of all.
