SAD SCHOOL COMMENTARY

As usual, just when the Department of Education says our schools are getting better, another study comes out to reveal the real truth. Taxpayers are tired of the propaganda, diversion, and outright lies from school administration. The study I refer to is the ACT (American College Testing) published in a recent article in major Louisiana newspapers. The conclusion is more of the same - Enrollment in almost every university in LA declined in the fall of 2006. 47% of high school students in Louisiana are NOT achieving the MINIMUM score on the test that is necessary for university enrollment. The study also reveals that only 18% of Louisiana's 2006 graduates were prepared for college Biology.

In short, if you want to have a better shot at future success, then QUIT school before they completely warp your world view. Your options are endless when you get out of jail - oops! I mean school. Home schooling (in England they call it Home Education), online education, private school, self-education, co-ops, self-sufficiency education, and on and on! I used to recommend Catholic (Parochial) schools, but, sad to say, they are now using Public School text books with a decidedly skewed global world view.

PRODUCT OF CARROT AND STICK

I recently discovered (or uncovered), at a ripe old age, that my underpinnings had crumbled! This is not a sad story but the realization of true beauty and innocence. My entire belief system is being jettisoned because I have finally opened my closed mind and eyes to reality. My religion, Protestant up until 6 years ago, had been pinned on the beliefs of a crazy man whom I had never bothered to investigate. My education had been 'managed' by a covert government agenda of control and deception, which I just accepted and never bucked. My life's philosophy and methodology was a reproduction of my parents, my schooling, and my churches' carrot and stick management (with me as the jackass)! Now, I'm the manager. How do I change so many years of deception and brain washing?

1st you enter a Church where you can find the true and clear light, and the SUBSTANCE that can renew and strengthen you on a daily basis.

2nd you earn your existence by making some dent and shift in direction to help others so that they won't have to wait until they are subjectively 'old' to really SEE the purpose of their lives and how to attain their goals. You create the vehicle! Blow the dirt off the diamond! Act upon the buried questions and opinions that were there since your teenage years!
