(31,160 posts)1. That it is.
It's due to the dumbing down of our education system...no more civics being taught, revisionist history. It's disgusting.

They get away with teaching whatever craziness they want. We are breeding ignorant, terrified people and it's been by design too.

(31,160 posts)3. Great example is Liberty University

I am surprised your company reimburses for that sham school.
