 Our Governement
The General Education Board was founded in 1902, in their first newsletter they stated their purpose.
"In our dreams, we have limitless resources and the people yield themselves with perfect dialectity to our molding hands. The present education conventions fade from their minds, and unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive rural folk. We shall not try to make these people, or any of their children, into philosophers or men of learning, or men of science. We have not to raise up from them authors, editors, poets, or men of letters. We shall not research from embryo, great artists, painters, musicians, nor lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians, statesmen of whom we have an ample supply. The task we set before ourselves is very simple, as well as a very beautiful one. We are to train these people, as we find them, to a perfectly ideal life, just where they are, end quote. And, so when you boil down what they were saying, they are saying, we are not to truly educate children. We don’t want to do that. What we want to do is to educate them, or to brainwash them into being perfectly satisfied where they are. We do not want them to aspire to greatness. We do not want them to know the Word of God. We do not want them to be great scientists or great doctors or great poets or great artists. No, we want them to be satisfied right where they are, because we want to control them. We want them to be good Statist little governmental subjects, and that began to transition in American education, rather than aspiring them to greatness based upon Biblical Christianity. "
Civilization rose to its height of power whenever it was built on Biblical Christianity. When a nation turns its back on Biblical Christianity, then that nation begins to decline. The General Education Board in 1902 stated they do not want to educate our children, instead, they want to keep them satisfied right where they are and dependent upon the government. America has change agents that have actually set out on an agenda, to bring this country from a once Christian nation to a secular nation.
