Are our educators pushing a godless pro-Technocracy, anti-environment, dehumanising anti-freedom agenda?!?

Question

Is there a conspiracy to replace God with science & technology, in aid of imperialist capitalism?

Do intellectuals, technologists, technocrats, intelligentsia, technophiles, and other such intellectual elites (who view science as "god" in itself), push a pro-Technocracy, pro-Scientism, anti-natural, anti-environment, dehumanising, anti-freedom agenda?!?

Is that the longest and most conveluted anti-conspiracy theory question of the day?

(Who wants 10 points?) What do YOU think???

One can see how irresistible a vehicle the schools would be to any social engineer. They represent a unique opportunity to mold future citizens early in life, to instill in them the proper reverence for the ruling culture, and to prepare them to be obedient and obeisant taxpayers and soldiers. Unsurprisingly, rulers and intellectuals jumped at the chance to make the schools a mill for the creation of Good Citizens. That motivation has been part of every effort to establish government schools.


"Let our pupil be taught that he does not belong to himself, but that he is public property. Let him be taught to love his family, but let him be taught at the same time that he must forsake and even forget them when the welfare of his country requires it."
-- Benjamin Rush, (signer of the "Declaration of Independence")

Answer 1

Education is definitely going down the wrong path. I don't see why it's so difficult to see it. I grew up in a time when we gathered and had prayer and devotion before we started our day in PUBLIC school. Imagine that. We didn't have discipline problems, much less school shootings. The children who were thought to be the rambunctious kids, would probably be the best behaved ones today. Our schools today more closely resemble the communist U.S.S.R. than the America the Founding Fathers founded. We need to pray for a return to what our forefathers intended. David C. Gibbs, the president of The Christian Law Association once said
" All education promotes someones religion, or lack thereof. Either teaching is done from the perspective that there is a God, that the Bible is His Holy Word, and that it can be relied upon as His authoritative truth; or else teaching is done from the secular perspective that there is no God, that the Bible is not His Holy Word, and that nothing can be relied upon as authoratve truth. Both of these positions are religious viewpoints - either theistic or atheistic." Not only are we becoming a nation who is hostile to the Christian faith we are as Christians handing our children over to an Atheistic school system 35 hours a week to be indoctrinated into Atheistic Secular Humanism. The church better wake up or we are going to lose our youth. God bless!!

Hey, I was just wondering, what are the little black blobs next to yours and some other user names? Just curious.

Answer 2

We don't push it. We pull. Less wind-resistance and better gas mileage.

"Godless"? or "just not YOUR interpretation of God"?
I dare to hold up the importance of every child and every person they encounter in life.

"pro-Technocracy" or "bringing kids into the 21st century"?
The fact that you are posting this on the web via your computer seems to indicate that you are part of this conspiracy.

"anti-environment" or "quality of life"?
I'll save a tree and clean a river, but don't ask me and my children to stop using electricity and burn logs for fuel. (Oops, there goes the trees again)

"dehumanising" or "social responsibility"?
The needs of the many outway the needs of the few. (My apologies to Mr. Spock for that one.)

"anti-freedom" or "anti-anarchy"?
Teenagers all want freedom. Then they grow into the world of social and family responsibility and want boundaries. That's why we have speed limits, health inspections at restaurants, laws, and community norms. Once we outgrow the "terrible-twos", we begin to grow beyond a world based on ME and learn to become part of a world of WE.

As an educator, parent, former student, and current member of society, I find ranting cheap and raving free. But making the world better and more productive is hard work and rewarding.

And guess what? Your parents are more right than you'll admit.

p.s. And for those who toss out quotes and say that I justify by law, I justify by observation and learned experience. One can learn and then teach. But one must listen, before learning. To quote William Shakespeare, "The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose."

Answer 3

A new concept is being introduced now in schools, that "science and God, in fact, cannot exist without the other" It would be a long debate if we go into the why's. But be rest assured that Education and educators has not, and will not push for a godless society with the same reasons that you have.

Answer 4

Grace unto you, and peace,
from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

It is preposterous order to teach first and learn after.

Sadly, good educators like 'George Y' who justified himself with law, have finally got the WE (global) part: But such legalists are decribed in 1Timothy 6,7: as having swerved, turned aside unto vain jangling, Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm. They are also described in Galatians 5:4 as being fallen from grace to law, which is a fearful thing in Hebrews 10, even a draw back rather than going on. They are also described in 2Peter 2:22 as Dogs and Sows.

Sadly, most of our educators teach first and learn after, often learning too late, what's "evident" from all the evidence: that "the law is not of faith", and "that no man(adult) is justified by the law in the sight of God(Grace)": Galatians 3; And that what's written "aforetime", as "allegory" in both covenants: Galatians 4, and "mystery" to solve in time lest all perish by law instead of none perish by grace, is written for our "learning": Romans 15:4.

So then, it is a primary Pauline theme:
I would not that ye be ignorant brethren.

The GRACE of our Lord Jesus Christ with you all. Amen.

Answer 5

Read Dewey. Public schools were started to train workers for the post industrial revolution. Public education means less on-the-job training for industry. Money not spent by industry. Not a far cry from your statement.

Answer 6

Not in any school I went to. The teachers were all pretty respectful of everybody's beliefs and still taught science with competence and enthuseasm.

Answer 7

Honey It's all part of the Anti-christ devious plan.
God has been pushed out of almost everything. We're living In the last days.Meaning,we have to stay strong and continue to fight the good fight of faith. People need to wake up ! God will get their attention one way or another. God will not be mocked !
Still running the race....Bless You

Answer 8

I am a teacher, and the answer is a big NO in my classroom!

NB: the "godless" part remains neutral in classrooms, but I certainly wouldn't push it even if I could.

Answer 9

only what the state requires of its teachers which they are mandated to do or lose their license I should know i was one and it can get utterly ridiculous so before one goes pointing any fingers at teachers, check into what the state demands of them

Answer 10

They sure are in California, that's where all the fruit loops are! And it's not an anti-freedom agenda, it's anti-American, more of a communist-socialist agenda....
