American Public Education ~ The Making of a Sheeple

I think one reason why so many of us fail to recognize the farce of public education is because we ourselves were conditioned through that very system. We are too close to the forest to see the trees. Besides, it is just too easy to put them on that bus and believe someone else can do it better than you.

I am deeply concerned about our country's future. Soon, it will be in the hands of those who, since K5, have been indoctrinated into the collective consciousness of new age thinking. How many public high school students can you find who are not Obamaphiles? Or Students who do not understand what socialism is, yet agree and support it's tenets?
The purpose of education and the schools is to change the thoughts, feelings and actions of students. - Prof. Benjamin Bloom,father of OBE (Outcome Based Education)

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." ~Ronald Reagan, 40th president of U.S.


Charlotte Iserbyt served as Senior Policy Advisor in the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI), U.S. Department of Education, during the first Reagan Administration, where she first blew the whistle on a major technology initiative which would control curriculum in America's classrooms.

In this video Charlotte, author of The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America, points out that teachers can be trained to influence the children to reject the Christian values and beliefs of their parents and embrace atheism in one hour.

I encourage you to watch this vid as Charlotte reveals that our school systems are not just about reading, writing, and arithmetic...a message all American parents should hear.

BTW, her book is now available for free e-book download.


We have a cultural notion that if children were not engineered, if we did not manipulate them, they would grow up as beasts in the field. This is the wildest fallacy in the world. - Joseph Chilton Pearce

We homeschool, IndyJane. It's partly for protective reasons (my children, shall we say, are somewhat laden with ADHD...go figure, if you've read anything of dad's blog...).

But...the reality is we get to teach them so much more than they would learn at the hands of "educators." For instance, there's a huge tea party planned here in Atlanta for April 15, and we're devising lesson plans around the original tea party, the reasons for it, the reasons why we're allowed political dissent today...and...I'm going to take my 8 year old right along with me in the thick of it, so he can watch and learn and understand how important it is NOT to become a sheeple.

Heck, I may even let him do a guest post on my blog...should be interesting.

In revolution and liberty!
