The problem isnt that Johnny cant read.
The problem isnt even that Johnny cant
think.
The problem is that Johnny
doesnt know what thinking is;he confuses it with feeling. Dr.
Thomas Sowell…And the culprits are the American public
education, an ever growing lack of religious education, and the indifferent
parenting that does not question what children learn or do not learn in
school. Young people in any generation tend to be naïve, idealistic, and gullible;
it is easy to sell them anything because they confuse feelings with rational
thought. They are told so often and so early in life that they are
special that they form a distorted view of themselves.…if you listen to liberals, we are all equally special, talented, and
brilliant. Test scores tell a different story though, particularly the
latest test results from New York public schools, among the first to
implement the new and feel-good-about- wrong- answers
Common
Core nationalized education standards. Worse yet, GED, and college entrance
exams, SAT and ACT, will be revised in line with Common Core standards.
… public school teachers with personal agendas fail the young minds and
society by using their influence and power to inculcate
Socialism
and revisionist history onto the unchartered and unmapped brains of
their students. Such teachers diminish and denigrate our common Christian
roots while glorifying Islam….If young people had known true history and had learned from it, they would
have understood that all socialist paradises around the globe were dismal
economic failures and tyrannies that suppressed the human spirit, robbed
people of their freedoms, and sent many to early graves for their
anti-government beliefs. Under socialism/communism people [except the
ruling elite] were equal – equally miserable, equally poor, equally
hungry, equally cold, equally mistreated, equally deprived, and equally
imprisoned or killed for their thoughts….Young people have been indoctrinated in schools to
glorify other cultures, multiculturalism, and other religions to the detriment of their own
inferior culture and religion. …It is surprising that
Sharia Law and
Gulen schools are making their way so
fast across the United States while the vocal feminists and liberals are so
silent. More and more young women and men are buying into the false
rhetoric of the
religion of peace …Young Californians have become so dumbed down and calloused by our education
system that are willingly signing street petitions to kill babies two months
after they are born and to kill seniors in order to save money on Obamacare.
Their faces do not show an ounce of hesitation or rational thought. It is
shocking to witness the absence of
humanity and care.Young people are the easiest swayed in the direction of environmentalism and
global warming although science and historical facts suggest strongly that
environmentalist predictions of the past were wrong and that
climate change
alarmists have falsified data in recent years to match their newest
claims….Young people turn into destructive flash mobs in malls and convenience
stores because they have nothing better to do, are unemployed, have an evil
and destructive streak, or are trying to make a misguided statement,
prompted by clever
Alinskyite manipulators and community organizers who want to
disrupt the economy and overwhelm the system….Do young people question the out-of-control spending that is destroying
their future? Do they object to paying the lions share of Obamacare costs
while Congress gets 75% subsidies for their premiums, illegal aliens get
fully subsidized under the undeserved amnesty plan, and Muslims get free
healthcare because it is against their religion to pay monthly premiums?
The answer is no. … Will they get quality health care once the
unaffordable Affordable Care Act is fully implemented? No, but that is
thinking too far ahead for most young people.Young people keep repeating that we are unfair and discriminate against
black Americans yet we have Affirmative Action, a black President, a
black Attorney General, hundreds of thousands of black people in prominent
positions of power, and almost 18% of the federal workforce is black
when the black population represents 12% of the U.S. population.May I remind the lost generation that life is never fair, nothing is equal,
and nothing is free, there is an opportunity cost for everything, somebody
else is paying for your free lunch? Next time you feel the need to march for
a liberal cause that you joined for no apparent reason or logic other than
that it is cool or popular with your age group, put what you are doing in
proper perspective, you might burn a bridge behind you which you may have to
cross sometime in the future.
“…the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.”
1 John 5:19“…do not be
conformed to this world, but be transformed by the
renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good
and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
