Idolatry - The Legacy of Public Education

This is the reality of the “cancel culture generation,” and no amount of reasoning or truth can calm their emotional indoctrination. So, Christians stay silent–or worse, they join the politically correct agenda of the left. Even the opposing party depends on their silence to secure votes. If we surrender to the current pressure to accept radical attacks against our First Amendment, it will be just another step toward the communist agenda. When we give up our right to free speech, we lose our right to share the gospel, and our new god is “fear.”

Many people want their children to attend private or Christian schools. Still, some expect those schools to align with their personal ideas of what they should be rather than being rooted in Scriptural and Biblical principles. This conflict may increase as we approach the “Day of the Lord” (2 Peter 3).

These past few years in our city streets, we have witnessed the result of public school and higher education indoctrination. We now have young adults who cannot reason, only feel. In video after video, we have witnessed firsthand conversations dictated by emotion instead of reason with many of these indoctrinated youth. Even when given verifiable evidence and challenged to assess this evidence, reasoning is out of their grasp, so much so that they fall back on emotional attacks and lack of self-control. This is the fruit of public school and higher education, which teaches that character, truth, and facts do not matter. Instead, it is what you “feel” that counts.

As I have stated, everything beneficial must be put on the table of learning so that children can make informed decisions and learn to depend on their ability to research and reason. The Bible warns us about relying on our “feeling” or “heart” instead of GOD’s word and HIS reasoning (Jeremiah 17:9-12; Isaiah 55:8-9).

We have also seen in the last few years these mobs tearing through stores, stealing whatever they want, or bringing down a statue without understanding its historical significance. There is a sense of hate, anger, self-righteousness, and narcissism on display. The most terrifying result of this indoctrination has us witnessing children, the elderly, small business owners, and the police being abused and sometimes murdered. Threats and demands are made regardless of the impact on their fellow human beings–behavior reminiscent of spoiled children, and we grieve at how lost they are.

We need to get our children out of public schools and help them find places of higher learning that allow them to be challenged and encouraged to reason and feel. By giving students access to all data and a license to think critically, they can become accomplished at research without fear of non-compliance. We can encourage others to dialogue in a way that does not need to use personal attacks to get a feeling of winning. Students will learn and teach others to personally reach out to GOD, search out epistemology, and conduct their research that is rewarding because it is moving toward truth (Jeremiah 33:3).

Many children in public education attempt to talk children and young adults out of receiving an education in private schools or at home. They try to sell others on the indoctrination without knowing they are doing this. They see being with peers as the most essential thing in life. We cannot lose sight of the fact that peers have a powerful pull on our children. We must be alert because public schools and online activities are set up to exclude parent and teacher involvement in a child’s exposure to indoctrination and other dangers.

Today, many parents have come through the system of public schools and, therefore, are themselves already indoctrinated and find no issue with what the public schools are teaching–especially if they are a minority. Race Idolatry is one of the lessons learned; however, this leaves the child unequipped to face real-world engagements and often trains them to have anger and an amplified worldview of self-importance. We need GOD everywhere–especially in our schools and in our worldview. But we must come upon this relationship with HIM in our person as we walk toward a very personal understanding of who we are and who GOD is, not by indoctrination but by being allowed to explore all that HE created.

Please research the 1619 Project taught in Public Schools and contrast this with the message taught in Christian schools.
