My previous post about Dewey's influence on public school being a place of training up children primarily to excel at social life is borne out in a June 2005 Barna survey report. According to that report, and I quote, "Christians say they do best at relationships, worst in Bible knowledge." Remember Dewey's quote? "I believe, therefore, that the true centre of correlation of the school subjects is not science, nor literature, nor history, nor geography, but the child's own social activities."
How can we expect Christian children to learn about who God is, what He has done, and what He calls us to, when 85% of Christians send their children out into Dewey's educational system to learn how to be social creatures as defined by society's ethics rather than God's? Is it any wonder that the church has reached the point where Christians have learned how to best get along with the unbelievers, how to fit into their system of beliefs, are essentially illiterate when it comes to Bible knowledge and deficient of Christian character?
Am I too harsh? Why are Christian divorce rates and family breakups equal or higher than that of the unbelievers? God clearly says that when we are disobedient to his commands and teachings we will be judged and placed under a curse. Looks to me like many Christian families are under that curse.
We must submit to God's clear teaching on the topic of raising up a godly generation by faithfully training them up according to God's methodology and his teaching, NOT man's.
