Church, Politics and State Education Systems

[denuseri]

The State of Texas is not unique in finding politically one sided bias of a liberal left to be vehmently entrenched within the education system in America.

In fact the real surprise is that it took a government body this long to come to the realization that there is such a problem and that it needs to be corrected.

I am sure however that it will not be corrected in the manner which the article portrayed. That is obviously a political agenda seeping out of the journalists keyboard plain and simple. But who knows, I wouldn't put it past the Republicans to use the very same tatic the Democrats have used for so long against them.

What would be nice for a change, is if teachers would acctually follow an ethical standard that precluded adherence to any political party.

The US military punnishes its members if they do anything that can be construed as being politically orrientated as support for one party over another. Why not hold teachers to the same standard?

Instead of doing as they currently are allmost universally accross the board, especially in colleges.

At present, in the USA , liberal agenda dominates the classrooms, especially at the college level.

If I only had a dollar for every teacher that proffessed political views openly in classess that I attended (especially classess that have nothing to do with politics, like latin, english lit and algebra etc), then encouraged students to do the same and then graded against said students with differeing political views from their own in all the subjective portions of thier ciriculums. (BTW Blue books = subjectivity 9 times out of ten)

Teachers, like the journalists before them, have joined the ranks of the sophists of old in this regard.

The worst part is that the majority of the tenured educational professionals who embraced the changes incorperated by adoption of the Dewey system over the Clasical model in the early 1900's are to blame.

They not only discarded their own honor piecemeal so that they could promote their own political beliefs through their work when and where they ccould get away with it, all while truing the systen into an excersise in programing, but they taught whole succeeding generations of teachers that it was the "correct" standard operating procedure.
