INSIDIOUS INVASION!

"The real purpose of education is to enhance the capacity for Americans to cope with global interdependence... it is to give up the dream of the little white house on its own quarter-acre of land in suburbia and the permanent loss of personal mobility at will, through enforced dependence on public transportation." Aspen Institute Educational Policy Paper - 1975 The above quotation from a 1975 educational policy paper from the Aspen Institute, an educational and policy organization based in Washington D.C., should not just give you pause, it should scare the mess out of you. Not only is this organization forming educational policy for our nation, it’s allowing for the brainwashing of our children through the public school system. This infiltration is not just from within our country through progressive thought however, it’s from without, from the United Nations, which has been involved in shaping educational standards, policy, and textbooks in this country since the 1970s. There are over 3 million teachers in America today, and over 1.2 million of them are conservative, limited government educators who are striving to work from within a system that is hostile not only to the ideals enshrined in the founding documents of our country, but hostile to our republic itself. They are trying to stem the tide of progressivism that is threatening to engulf our students, that is teaching them a history and world-view that denigrates and blasphemes who and what we are as Americans, and the ideals and belief system that we’ve carried with us through the last two and a half centuries. Our children need us more than ever, and our nation needs us to step up to the plate. If we can’t be bothered to stand up for our values as individuals and as a nation, then we shouldn’t be surprised when those values and beliefs are done away with. Our children and our country - aren’t they still worth fighting for? Off The Grid Newsletter 9/21/12

The Greatest HOAX

The greatest hoax ever played on the American people is not president number 44! It is the slow poison of modernity, dispensed to every American through TV and movies. It has shaped our lives and our attitudes so completely in the last 75 years that we can't even imagine living without it. Yet, it gives us small, incremental, steady, doses of all the "isms", such as relativism, hedonism, consumerism, etc. So if the Muslims are winning, buying up large portions of America, building Mosques and businesses and taking over American franchises, this is why. We are too busy drinking in our fun and filth to pay any attention. They are loyal to their faith enough not to listen or watch the perverted comedy and parade of sex that pours through our airwaves today. But we love it and we have been conditioned to accept just about anything. And now we are trapped in a slowly closing noose of our own making. We suck down show after show; movie after movie, and like little newborn birds, waiting for mama to fly in and feed us, we clamor and scream for more! Only the "more" we get is poison, artfully administered. Just one of hundreds of examples - when we will excitedly dress for football and proms, in all the paraphernalia for the games, and skimpy, revealing dresses for homecoming and proms, but we won't dress modestly everyday for Jesus - we, as a Christian society, are losing.

IT"S ALMOST OVER! TOO MUCH COMPETITION!

How can teachers help students whose minds are too jittery to concentrate? Slug them down with medication, you say? Nope. Counter-productive. Drugging kids down so that they can "focus"(ha) on only one thing, stiffles creativity and critical thinking skills. But all of that is irrelevant, really, because the days of teachers teaching lasting knowledge is almost a thing of the past. When young people from pre-school age through college consume a steady diet of comedy, cruelty, sadism, masochism, sexual perversion,fantasy, science fiction, propaganda and pure hype they will never settle down to the calm learning of the old classroom. You can watch them sitting in the classroom, twitching, stroking themselves, staring, making erratic movements, their minds on tunes, movies, games and parties. The learning environment is already gone! Soon you can read about it in the history books. Have you been in a public or parochial school classroom lately? Have you walked down the halls of the local school and heard the noise, seen kids sleeping, yelling at the teachers, acting out their favorite shows or music, texting in their pockets? There is no such thing as a learning environment anymore. Parents feed kids a steady diet of entertainment, or should I say perpetual immaturity, always seeking the next new thing to keep them from getting bored. They do this for twenty-plus years and then expect them to push a button and become responsible. Well guess what, it's not working. We now have several generations of self-indulgent,entertainment-seekers who are "perpetually imature"! Hedonistic parents are raising hedonistic kids and the "focus" is NOT on education or productivity or making the best use of what God has endowed them with. Who is He anyway? It's about where the next big thrill is coming from. So school is out, a thing only to be endured. Sad part is, neither the law or the government can do nothing about it. As a matter of fact, they have hastened the process by their extremely low standards and their new fix-alls each year. In all honesty this is where we are. Maybe a few more years to try and salvage a few kids with the inner drive to learn positive, charitable things. But there is very little evidence today of self-disciplined kids who really want to learn. For those who realize that they are really behind and want to do something about it - THEY STILL CAN - but they are so used to mommy and daddy making excuses for them that most won't.
