Public Schools Manipulate Beliefs

This morning I came across two stories which seemingly have nothing whatsoever to do with each other. However, I see the link as clear as day and as scary as zombie movies.

The first story's headline: "Pa. Bishop Does Not Recant Saying that Hitler and Mussolini 'Would Love Our Public School System.'"

Bishop Joseph P. McFadden (Catholic Diocese of Harisburg)

According to CNS News, Bishop Joseph McFadden made a comparison between the interests of the public school system and totalitarianism, while discussing what he saw as a lack of school choice in Pennsylvania.

"The reference to dictators and totalitarian governments of the 20th century which I made in an interview on the topic of school choice (aka "vouchers") was to make a dramatic illustration of how these unchecked monolithic governments of the past used schools to curtail the primary responsibility of the parent in the education of their children," he said.

Instead of dealing with the urgency of quality education and school vouchers, the ACLU and the Jewish Anti-Defamation League sent out stern admonishments attacking Bishop McFadden's mention of dictators and totalitarian governments: ". . . he should not be making his point at the expense of the memory of six million Jews and millions of others who perished in the Holocaust."

The bishop never mentioned the Holocaust. While expressing concern for anyone "offended" he did not retract his statements.

Good for him.

The second story, from The Telegraph in Great Britain: "Girls, 13, given contraceptive implants at school. Girls as young as 13 have been fitted with contraceptive implants at school without their parents knowing." This was part of a government — GOVERNMENT — initiative to drive down teenage pregnancies.

As many as nine secondary schools in the city of Southampton are thought to be involved. The health chiefs have defended this saying teenage pregnancies had dropped by 22 percent.

They don't, however, tell us how much promiscuity and STDs have risen as boys tell girls to get the implant so they can have sex without mum and dad being the wiser. And they don't tell us how much these youngsters will be emotionally and psychologically damaged by reckless so-called "safe" sex behaviors.

As one parent said, "Parents send their children to school to receive a good education, not to be undermined by health workers who give their children contraceptives behind their backs."

Now . . . the ADL and the ACLU don't see the reason Bishop McFadden made reference to totalitarian governments? Are the ADL and ACLU skirting the real issue by being "offended" that there is a connection between totalitarian governments and mass murder: Syria, Libya, Egypt, Iran, Soviet Union, Northern Korea, Cambodia, etc. . . . shall I go on and on and on?

In America, Planned Parenthood will give abortions to minor girls, without parental knowledge or permission, and not report to the authorities that the male involved is an adult.

Many, many, many schools across the country invite Planned Parenthood representatives to their schools to give "information" on "family planning." (I call it recruitment of future abortions).

In America, our public schools will teach about every sexual combination and orientation of existing sexual experience as morally equal and acceptable, disallowing discussion, much less disagreement.

This is pretty standard for public schools and is why I always recommend children be taken out of public schools and put in conservative religious schools or home schooled.

Our public schools have become politically correct sites of manipulation of thought and beliefs.

The bishop was right.
