Education means different things to different people. The education of the government schools is nothing more or less than indoctrination in the religion of Darwinism. The entire curriculum is centered around atheism. In other words, the way things are is because they are. No explanation is required. The assumption is that there is no God. They believe philosophically that chaos is the norm.
The government schools have enjoyed a monopoly for oodles of years. Their curriculum is not subject to the market. Government school education is enforced at the point of a gun. It is totally coercive. It is socialist to the core. Those attending have to be there. It is nothing more than a prison system. Those who go there are institutionalized. This prepares them for future careers in tax payer supported programs. This is the ultimate consequence of monopoly, bureaucracy, long lines and one size fits all.
The most ridiculous thing I think I have ever seen is grown adults accepting the government telling them when they can take their breaks at work. They learned in school that they were entitled to recess. These adults take their government ordained breaks no matter how many people are standing in line. Monopolies, of course, attract long lines because it fits in with the economic law that more will be demanded at less price or in this instance zero price. If you do not have to pay for it, you and everyone of your relatives will be in line looking for a freebie. It is, however, not free. There is no such thing as a free lunch. The taxpayer must pay and pay and pay, on and on. The taxpayer does not protest to loudly because he does not pay his tax directly out of his paycheck because it has already been deducted. If he had to pay it directly, by having to write a check, he would have a fit.
This is because our theology has changed in this country. There is a difference between modern education i.e. indoctrination, and biblical education. In the book of inheritance, Deuteronomy, we find many references to education as being the realm of parents (private) and not the State. There needs to be a separation of Education and the State. Deuteronomy 4:8-9 reads, "And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day? 9Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons’ sons." According to these scriptures, God’s law is superior to all laws and it is to be taught to sons and grandsons by the parents and grandparents. Notice that there is no mention of government education mentioned here. Therefore, modern education is anti-biblical. It is humanist to the core.
Deuteronomy 6:4-9 further states that education is to be decentralized and the dominion of parents, "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. 6And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8And thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9And thou shalt write them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates." To teach our children anything other than God’s law is tantamount to rebellion against the truth. To teach anything else is to teach falsehood, by definition.
What are children taught in the sciences by the government schools? Evolution right out in the open. It is not hidden in the closet. Evolution is the established religion of the State that is accepted by faith. By faith, these dupes accept that life came from non-life. Their dominating principle is that likes beget unlikes. This is counter to the word as found in Genesis 1:11-12, "And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. 12And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good." The law of God states that likes beget likes. This is what happens in the real world. Humans beget humans, not apes.
According to evolution, matter is eternal and therefore, god. They believe in uniformity. They say that the world has always been this way for billions of years, give or take a billion. They multiply the years like McDonald’s does hamburgers. Christians believe that world was created by God in a literal 6 day period i.e. 144 hours and that the world is not older than 6000 years. In other words, we believe that the history of Genesis is literal. This, of course, drives the evolutionist right up the wall. He cannot handle it because it refutes his religion.
Christians do not disagree with science. We disagree with evolution, in regard to origins. Evolution has nothing to do with science. It has to do with the genesis of things. An evolutionist has to hold his position by faith because he was not there in the beginning of time. Therefore, he has to make assumptions as to how the world began. Unfortunately for him, his assumption has made the proverbial you know what out of him. His position is untenable. Don’t tell him that he does not have any clothing. He claims that he does and that is all that matters to him. He does not accept the truth because he cannot. He believes lies because he can believe nothing else not being a Christian.
Deuteronomy 11:18-21 further drives home the point of parental education, i.e. private education, "Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. 19And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 20And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates: 21That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the LORD sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth." Coerced education is not freedom in learning. It presupposes one point of view and that of the humanist state. It is godless education.
The Bible teaches that education is to be conducted at the private level and not by the Government. Education is an economic good, not a political one. The sooner that parents begin to take their responsibility before God seriously, in this regard, the sooner we will see the demise of the monopoly possessed by the State. God wants education to be decentralized. Satan wants it centralized. This is the only way that he can control it with his main presupposition of chaos.
