Parental Advisory
J. Gerald Harris
John 21:15-17
I don't have to tell you that there is ample evidence to suggest that American public schools perform worse than schools in many other countries. And worse than that is the indoctrination and vain ideologies that characterize many of our public schools. Voddie Baucham provides us five reasons not to send your children to government/public schools: (1) The Bible commands Christ-Centered Education, (2) Government Education is anti-Christian, (3) America's Schools are Morally Repugnant, (4) America's Schools Are Among the Word in the Industrialized World, (5) You Don't Have To.
When I was in public school in the 1940s and 1950s, we memorized Scripture - Psalm 1, the 23 Psalm, the 100th Psalm, and many other passages from God's Word. We had a student to read a section of Scripture and pray a prayer over the Public Address System before school each day. Often on our assembly we had ministers from our town preach to the students. And we had the three Rs - Reading, Righting and Rthematic. Today schools have the four Cs - Crime, Chaos, Confusion and Common Core Curriculum.
Have you heard the latest school prayer?
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule.
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights,
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange, or green,
That's no offense: it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise,
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the State.
We can get out condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires, and totem poles.
They say our inalienable rights are all endowed,
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed.
It's scary here I must confess,
Where chaos r ...
