"We are not a Christian nation"

President Obama at the G-20 meeting today speaking with Turkey leader said, "We don't consider ourselves a christian nation or a muslim nation, but a nation of citizens bound by a set of values." Well, that's news to me. (I see it coming though) In his book "The Audacity of Hope" (Constitution chapter) he speaks about the constitution as something behind the times, a guide, that "must be read in context of an ever-changing world." After reading the chapter twice I am led to believe that some of his notions are correct, but without some absolute to rely on the Constitution will always be left for mulitiple translations and changing if it hinders our progress as a nation. This is clearly the teachings of William James who brought the philosopy of "Truth was relative to time, place, and purpose". If this be true then there is no truth other than what is believed today. Our nation is in for some big changes, and I don't think they will all be good ones.
God doesn't have a backup plan in his purpose. What He says stands the test of time. Psalm 119:89. Thank God.

America's Trojan Horse

The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) is a group of foreign countries that have put together a curriculum for schools internationally. The Constitution of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), which states that “since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed”.
This all sounds great and innocent until you begin reading through hundreds of pages of documents that reveal the one goal of a 'one world of one mind'. This was what I got out of it.
I found that most of the books written for the curriculum were written by some of the same teachers that teach the courses. Hmm, that's an easy way to teach your own philosophy. Also, tolerance to other students includes removal of the flag and pledge of allegiance in some of the 600 school that the IBO is taught in. The course is bent on removing all barriers from all people for the one goal of international tolerance. I won't make this entry long, so I am putting the things in here that burnt me the most. There are plenty of others. This curriculum is based out of Switzerland. Why can't we teach our own children. What will happen to the history of America? I have looked at the books they require for reading and they even have excerpts from them worth a visit for yourself. One take on the Cold War was that 'socialism' is a good way of governing if you get everyone behind you on it. Yeah, we want this stuff in our schools.
This is not a curriculum, it's an agenda.
This was taught as a class but is now being taught as a philosophy. The teaching of tolerance without boundaries is dangerous to our culture. This is one reason I believe that our 'offensive' pledge of allegiance is being removed from our schools.
Here are a few websites you can visit. Be sure to follow the links as I did, I got obsessed and spent hours reading. If you have any comments or questions please ask while the stuff is still fresh in my head.

I would suggest that you be sure what you children are learning.
