Most readers have been educated by teachers who have the same respect for the human consciousness as the four men with the sledge hammers in our example had for the Lamborghinis. As students, most readers have sat passively through endless hours of history, music appreciation and other courses taught in the most negative and destructive way conceivable, and like the car owners in our example, most readers have never attempted to stop the destruction. And if they had, they only would have been further destroyed. Herein lies our dilemma. A Question of Epistemology Most people in this nation believe that America is a religious society.
Schools refuse to recognize any child as having a soul.
No child is seen as having an individual life purpose. God's purpose for each one is completely ignored. Teachers believe that children are fortunate to be in their guiding hands and that they as teachers can shape and mold children into God's purpose. Compulsory education in this country began because industry needed factory workers in the textile and lumber mills. You would think they would have closed the schools down by now for refusing to recognize the soul in any child or the need for any individual to fulfill God's purpose and plan.
