But Wait...There's More!

Following up on yesterday's blog and the importance of educating our youth to understand their history. Hey, let it be known, history was by far my least favorite subject, but I'm beginning to think it's taught in that manner so we purposely dismiss it's importance. There are so many riveting struggles and stories imbedded in the birth of our country, it's shameful to dismiss them as meaningless.

Here's how important this issue is, a recent survey of tenured college professors found that better than 90% of them described themselves as liberal. Just for reference, that's a greater percentage than people who describe themselves as believing in God. While not all of them teach with a bias, the majority of them do, again supported by another survey of college students.

Liberal academia has a habit of twisting and contorting history to fit their agenda. It's our responsibility as citizens to insure our youth understands the principles upon which this country was founded. For instance, the liberal cry of separation of church and state, there is no such power, law, or edict anywhere in the Constitution, Bill of rights, The Articles of the Confederation, nor any other rule of law governing this country. The only reference to religion is the first amendment which states....

"Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise there of;"

This was twisted along with a letter Thomas Jefferson wrote some 25 years later referencing the "wall of separation between church and state" as rule of law. If this is not taught to our children it will be accepted as truth. Where the original intent is that government wouldn't establish a national religion, or ever stop you from worshiping as you please. The left has purposely misinterpreted this mandate because morality interferes with their agenda. For us to defend our Constitutional rights, we need to know exactly what is written and what it means, otherwise we'll accept the interpretation of someone else who might have and agenda.

History, as taught by the left, has conveniently altered the teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King. Did you know this freedom fighter was a registered republican? I'll betcha Al (no so) Sharp-ton, or Reverend Jesse Jackson avoid letting that cat out of the bag. They also forget to mention the racism experienced in the south during the segregation of schools occurred by democrats in power. They stand before their people and tell them Dr King believed in all men being equal, when in fact he believed in equal treatment of all men. The subtle difference builds their platform of social justice and redistribution of wealth. Dr King dreamed that all men would be judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin, and never suggested that their be a redistribution of wealth, just an equal opportunity as granted us all by the Constitution. If someone suggests they are mistaken they use the fear tactic of branding you a racist and demanding social justice. They confuse justice being what they deem as social equality, and the rule of law whereby justice is applied equally, for rich, poor, or any skin color. The left's whole agenda with minorities is fueled by their ignorance of history, and the spinning of what their leaders believed in, and leveling fear of a racist charge in those who question them. The whole process stinks of a lack of character and usury.

These are just a couple of examples of where we've drifted from the truth, based on misinformation fed to us by evil. I hope you can see how important knowledge of our history, and passing that forward is to our future generations is. I don't want my bloodline living in a socially just environment. I want a land of opportunity, where innovation and hard work are rewarded, and ignorance and idleness are inspired to be enlightened and productive. We keep score, and those who endure win. We are all born equal, we all have the same opportunity, and those who seize it will move forward, those who don't will be pitied but not enabled, except to better themselves.

God Bless!
