Hitler Said It Best

Each
day I am reminded that the collectivist agenda behind public
‘schooling’ is not a myth, and that it has accomplished more of its
goals than we would want to believe. ~ Linda Schrock Taylor

We must remember that the ‘project’
began around 1840 and realize that my generation — my
nearing-retirement generation — may be the last adult citizens with a
real understanding of the Original Intent for this nation, and any
comprehension of the deceptiveness and evil that drives this global plot
to ensnare and enslave our children for mindless service in the global
vision for a Brave New World.

“When an opponent declares,
‘I will not come over to your side.’
I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to us already…
What are you? You will pass on.
Your descendants, however,
now stand in the new camp.
In a short time they will know nothing
else but this new community.'” ~ Adolf Hitler

If
we hold any hopes for a return to the America of our Founding Fathers,
and to accurate interpretations of the US Constitution, we must act now,
each of us teaching and leading as Elders, as in The Giver,
and take back our educational decision-making roles.

If we fail in the
mission to force the federal STATE to release its unconstitutional
strings and control over our local educational decisions — and, rest assured, we will fail in such an attempt
— then we must opt for euthanasia and assist the school monolith in
dying as quickly, and as painlessly, as possible.

We might name our
mission, “Hospice for Government Schooling.”

If we have thoughtfully prepared for, then succeed in bringing about THE END of
public education, we can request cremation, hold a quick funeral, then
build or support, in each community, schools that educate our children
for free lives in a free America, rather than for mental and physical
enslavement in a world of global, national, state and local
Hitler-types.

We
really have no other choice, if we care about the futures for our
children and grandchildren.

We must act, even if it means giving up our
luxuries; our second properties; our false reassurances that “I don’t
see it affecting my life because my standard of living has only gone up
during my lifetime.” We must discipline ourselves to look further than
the noses on our faces; our social security; our ease in retirement.

Our
heirs will not have good things in life if we allow the collectivist
remaking of our values to continue.

Just
yesterday, with reading and math scores plummeting across the nation;
with both student and teacher motivation and effectiveness at
embarrassing lows, I was invited to a workshop — “Shaping Character: Creating a Culture of Virtues in Our Schools.”

This title seems to me incongruent in light of their claim that “You
have been entrusted with the future. We know how important that is to
you. That is why our seminars offer only the best classroom-tested
teaching methods — not trendy, theory-based fads.”

Maybe I am just
getting too old, for I interpret “shaping character” and “creating a
culture of virtues” as fads; I interpret “teaching methods” as ways to
teach the Three R’s; to teach them effectively; and to teach them NOW.

I
believe that the teaching of character and values belongs in the homes
and in the churches, not in schools, and certainly not with the goal of
‘reshaping’ any of our children.

The
brochure promises “100% Satisfaction Guaranteed!” and notes that this
institute “offers dozens of seminar topics in hundreds of locations all
over the United States.”

(I wonder if they offer any seminars on how to
actually teach reading, or on how to choose and implement, math
curriculum and instruction, which can raise the test scores that have
been lowered by the Chicago Everyday Math; the University of Chicago
math books; and/or all of their clones? I may inquire…)

It crossed my
mind than I could attend this seminar, as a representative of those
self-proclaimed curmudgeons among us. It might be rather fun to be the
person with the questions, who already knows the real answers — those
answers which, in all likelihood, will be avoided in such a workshop as
this.

This
workshop caught my attention, not because of any direction towards
educational and academic goals, but because of its offer to train
teachers in how to remold yours and my children. Attendees “will learn:

  • ” The simple elements of character honored by all cultures and spiritual traditions — 52 basic virtues!

  • How to use the ‘Language of Virtues’ to draw out the best in your students.

  • Proven methods to create a culture of virtues and reduce violence in your school!

  • 5 practical strategies to bring out the best in ALL students

  • Success stories from educators throughout the world”

Certainly
I want, as we all do, for children to have spiritual values that assist
them in self-control, and motivate them to learn.

However, I believe
that these outcomes can usually be brought about by simply teaching
every capable child to read, spell, speak, and write accurately, prior
to their entry into third grade, then by offering them the libraries,
the wisdom of the ages, and productive careers available to
knowledgeable, competent, well-read persons.

My radar for ‘collectivist
goals’ begins to hum when I read that two of the five strategies of
“Shaping Character” are: — “Honor the spirit — how to help students find purpose and meaning. — Practice the art
of Spiritual Companioning to really listen and encourage moral
choices.”

My
fear is that, with all of the learning, materials and products being
promised and guaranteed, attendees will decide to implement the
information in their classrooms, in place of remediating delayed reading
and math skills.

Attendees are promised “a wealth of ideas you can
implement immediately” but it appears that all of the ideas will be on
how to ‘reshape’ students, rather than how to educate them according to
academic standards and goals.

The
workshops will be offered in Wichita, Kansas; Cleveland, Ohio; and
Grand Rapids, Michigan. Take a moment to wonder how many of your
children’s teachers will attend this workshop, or one of the many others
offered by this organization, or other seminars offered by any of the
numerous organizations with similar agendas.

“Staff development and
in-service” offerings are big business, and although many appear to
offer solutions to the corruption, and seem to offer assistance in a
realignment of American educational misdirection, many, in fact, use the
fortunate (for them) state of miseducation to earn speaking fees and
sell books, rather than to present and champion true corrective
measures.

After
looking at examples of the training offered to public school teachers,
you may well decide to again refigure your family budget; to further
assess and define your educational priorities for your children.

You may
decide, this time, to actually begin checking out the private and
parochial schools in your area, or the materials and support available
for homeschooling.

If
each of us withdraws our children and our grandchildren from the public
schools, the repercussions will bring about the death of these
unhealthy centers for ‘childhood indoctrination.’

In certain medical
cases, if one continues to feed a terminal patient, death and suffering
are only prolonged. We are facing such a quandary in regards to the
disease that has taken over government schooling.

However, if we,
family-by-family, pull our children out of the public schools, the state
and federal dollars to those schools, based as they are on ‘head
count,’ will be reduced accordingly, allowing the institutions to
atrophy and eventually close their doors due to loss of interest and
their lifeblood — taxpayer money.

It
appears to be the kindest decision we can make, not only for our
children who bear the burden for the future of America, but also for our
teachers who are frustrated and saddened by the level to which
schooling has sunk in this nation.

In addition, the economic benefit
will be great, for our tax burden will be lessened, bringing much-needed
financial relief in this era of a constricting economy.

The
Departments of Education in all fifty states and at the national level
can be closed, lifting even greater tax burdens from the shoulders of
present and future taxpayers. Individuals will be able to freely decide
which types of schooling they choose to support with their newly
available monies.

We
can save America, and the Original Intent for this nation, by returning
total control of education for our future generations; our future
leaders; to those closest to them — their families, their churches,
their neighborhoods.

All of these decisions can, in turn, reestablish
states’ rights to their lawful position in the power structure of the
United States of America, as detailed and specified in the United States
Constitution.

That document and its guiding principles were created for
free Individualists; certainly not for totalitarian collectivists.

We
must stop, then reverse, the process that Hitler so clearly recognized,
applauded, and in which he placed his faith for the future of the world.
