    College Indocrination of each generation

    Being a licensed pilot, I have a few aviation forums I frequent, and they all have a general forum where you can talk about anything not aviation related. A poster brought up this point which is a real pet peeve of mine, and really angers me if I give any consistent thought to it:

    My daughter is attending college for her junior and senior years in high school, an opportunity afforded in Florida to qualifying students including home schooled students like my daughter.

    While helping her I was taken back at the overt use of the curriculum to mold the philosophies of the students. Science, History, English, Psychology, to name a few, depart freely from teaching the respective subjects in favor of influencing the personal philosophical beliefs of the students.
    I was reading this to my wife, and she said the same thing happened to her when she was in college (she is 44 so about 26 years ago). She had an atheist English teacher fail her twice because when she did papers she would have Christian content in them. I mean she actually failed the course twice, not just the papers. She wasn't judged on the grammar aspect, but on content, which of course he disagreed with. This kind of thing makes me angry. And there doesn't seem to be any recourse, because the administration is the same way.

    Each generation that passes they are more and more indoctrinated in liberal/socialism/humanism, etc ways. These are the leaders of tomorrow. Apart from prayer, revival, etc., it doesn't bode well for the future.

    What are your thoughts about this?

    Same is happening down here. At first it was subtle deception how they were indoctrinating, now they are just becoming brazen and justifying the evil agenda.
    I get upset as well when you see the lies and the vilification of anyone that opposes

    Speaking as a college instructor, we don't all do that.

    My English teacher in high school was a feminist and atheist. It was well known if you didn't feel like having English class, you bring up subjects like teacher's pay and inequality. One day she brought in a guest speaker who spoke against Christianity. After the talk, she invited the class to give their impressions. Most of the impressions were that they liked the speaker and agreed with the subject. When they got to me, I expressed that I disagreed, while he was interesting, his subject matter was wrong and insulting (this was God speaking, not me, I was not so bold) after I spoke, everyone after me pretty much agreed with what I said. It really is unfair and an abuse of power to bring up these subjects in class.

    I've said many times on this forum that colleges are now brainwashing centers. Are you just figuring this out, Fuego?

    Most Christians go into college as Christians, and come out as atheists. There is most definitely, a specific plan by the enemy to cause young Christians to hold to a naturalistic worldview, and to become what I call, "science worshipers". It's all a ruse, and to set the next generation up to embrace everything technological.

    And this is why we need to introduce our kids to a real living relationship with Jesus before they go off to school. They need to be baptized in the Holy Spirit, and discipled. We need to take them out on the streets and teach them how to heal the sick and watch God use them. A relationship with the living God will hold them a lot stronger than just learning about Him. This is where I am at. I think that at least half of our teens at church have now been baptized in the Holy Spirit, and a couple of the little kids.

    I am convinced that some liberal college professor will have a lot harder time turning them away from their faith if they are actually living it out.

    Totally agree Zeke. I spent 13 years, K thu 12, in catholic schools and I was an agnostic when I graduated.

    No. But I am just now starting a thread about it. :)

    I was in college in the 70s and it was going on but not to the extent of actually flunking someone with conservative christian views. I used to intentionally pick the conservative side just to get things riled up...I guess the liberals have just gotten bolder as they take more and more influence over our colleges and universities. They at least allowed free thinking and free speech even if it disagreed with their view 40 years ago - as they control more, they are bolder. I was just talking about this with another christian - you know - why are they so afraid of free thinking and other ideas - they developed their ideas with free thinking...it tells me they are slightly paranoid - i guess Winston Churchill was right - being a liberal at 20 is acceptable, being a liberal at 40 shows mental issues - they are very unstabe...if they arrived at their thinking freely why won't they allow this generation the same right! - insanity i say...
