I’ve been involved with creation ministry for a number of years and know firsthand how difficult it is to speak in science classes in a public school. If they do allow you to speak, they generally place strict guidelines on you. You’re not allowed to say anything about the Bible, Jesus, God, creation, or intelligent design. I’ve seen schools go so far as tell you that you aren’t even allowed to question evolution for fear that someone will take it as a creation talk and the school will get sued.
Likewise, history classes are the same way. I once was invited to speak about America’s early history, but was told that I couldn’t mention anything about religion whatsoever. I informed the teacher that you cannot truthfully teach American history without religion as it played a huge role in shaping the nation and helping us gain our independence from Great Britain. Consequently my invitation to speak was withdrawn.
Public schools throughout our country are so afraid of lawsuits that they’ve turned to teaching history that has been sanitized against all religious references. They’ll teach that most all of our Founding Father were deists, which by the way is not correct, but that’s as close to religion as they’ll get.
I believe this goes back to a states rights issue that the states are too weak to object to in the proper political format.
ReplyDeleteFrom the outset school systems were governed by local towns and cities. The Federal Government had no say in the schools. It is only in recent times that Federal laws were enacted and imposed on the states to reverse this.
Many of our problems stem from the fact that we cave into BIG Government control of nearly every aspect of our lives. It is time to stand up and take back our rights and get the Feds off our backs.
Start by getting Mr O who is the poster boy for BIG Government out of office. This will not totally end the tyranny of the Feds but it is a step toward regaining our freedoms on many levels.
