Tue May 04, 2004 Will Southern Baptists Join The Flight From Public Education? Pray They Do.
The Southern Baptist Convention is set to render a vote on a on a call to its' Churches to advise members to withdraw their children from public schools and either homeschool them or place them in Christian day schools.
T.C. Pinckney, a retired brigadier general who has been active in SBC leadership for several years, and Bruce N. Shortt, a homeschooing dad and attorney who holds advanced degrees from both Harvard and Stanford, sponsor the resolution. The resolution asks "all officers and members of the Southern Baptist Convention and the churches associated with it to remove their children from the government schools and see to it that they receive a thoroughly Christian education, for the glory of God, the good of Christ's church, and the strength of their own commitment to Jesus."
Shortt said of the motivations underlying the resolution,
"The issue is this," he said, "the government schools are killing our children morally, spiritually and academically. The question we confront as Christian parents is, how dead do we want our children to be?"
What would be the result of even 25% of Southern Baptists with School Aged Children who are not presently privately educated withdrawing their children from Public Schools? Well, it would nearly double the population of homeshooled and privately schooled Christian children. It would be a declaration of war far more unmistakable than even the growing popularity and increasing public awareness of the homeschooling movement, which has encountered well-funded, organized opposition from interest groups which stand to lose control over children, power, money, and prestige. This opposition has come from a broad range of liberal groups who stand to be weakened and watch their influence over Americas young dwindle, especially among that group most consistently targeted for indoctrination: children from Christian families. While initially their resistance was disorganised and lacking focus, Liberal educrats are beginning to successfully focus on those strategies that have proven effective in some states, and dissemination of these strategies is occurring through longstanding communication channels in unions, NGO's, education bureaucrats, and child health and welfare agencies. Their most effective method has been to utilize their cadres implanted in so-called family services bureaus to bring charges of abuse and neglect against white Christian Homeschoolers. The category of minority homeschoolers is not numerically significant enough to merit consideration, and this fact is telling. The attack is conducted under two presumptive rubrics: the first being that "isolation" cannot be tolerated because it is the state's duty to ensure children are not being abused or malnourished, and the second being that adequate "socialisation" cannot occur in a homeschooling milieu. This is the message behind calls of interest groups for the establishment of so-called ââ¬Åchildrenââ¬â¢s rightsââ¬Â, with such rights including those of ââ¬Åexposure to diverse value systemsââ¬Â and ââ¬Åsexual rightsââ¬Â. Bible-believing Christian parents should see such calls as chilling reminders of the totalitarian, socialist face behind the mask of family services and child welfare agencies. Let us be reminded that their targeting of whites is no coincidence. There is little if any opposition to socialism among minority groups. The majority of blacks, ââ¬ÅHispanicsââ¬Â, and Asians are solidly behind the American lurch toward socialism, which their putative leaders (anti-white race demagogues) euphemise under the term ââ¬Åsocial justiceââ¬Â
It must be clearly understood that the Children of functionally agnostic and atheistic families are not the primary targets of liberal educators, for such groups have already internalised the values of humanism, hedonism, equality, white-guilt and minority worship. Children from these groups need only be "maintained" as it were, and prevented from encountering the psychological shocks of competing value systems. It is rather the Children of Bible-believing Christians who are the targeted population. Their formative Christian value system must be undermined aggressively and immediately through constant exposure to subtle forms of ridicule, challenge by authority figures (from whom Children accept instruction almost uncritically), and a value-corrosive curriculum specifically engineered to confront Children with the supposedly inherited "sins" of their race, and showing how such sin derives from its' religious institutions.
Even the sterile, psychiatric ward aesthetic of public schools is a tool in the arsenal of re-education technicians in their campaign to break down resistance and re-direct the value formation of Christian Children. This why the line is drawn by liberal educrats at even the barest mention of the name of the God of Christians, much less any acknowledgement. It goes without saying that mention of other tribes gods are permitted and even encouraged. The anti-white hate organization People United for the Separation of Church and State have not issued any press releases or joined any lawsuits attempting to purge public schools of the influence of Islam, to my knowledge. If they have it is window dressing only. Since Christianity is the dominant religious heritage of the white tribe, attacks on it are ipso facto racial attacks, and it is clear such race-motivated attacks are not accidental. Such mention of the Christian God breeches the wall of silence and segregation erected against the Christian mores of the larger community. The children are placed in isolation spheres, as it is known from studies of the learning patterns of Children that mere repetition and exclusion, if carried on long enough, is sufficient to cause children to view the values of their parents as alien, minority views. Then natural peer-to-peer dynamics can be subtly manipulated to ensure the propagation, and continual re-enforcement of the educators message in the most influential group in the child's life.
Therefore it is easily seen that any such widespread action on the part of the nation's second largest denomination, will serve notice to liberal educrats that their value-inculcation monopoly is endangered. It is then that you can be sure that the battle for control of education will begin in earnest.
Self-consciously white Christian prayer warriors must pray fervently for the success of the resolution condemning public schooling of Baptist children at the upcoming SBC.

The orthography of a language is the set of rules of how to write correctly in the language. The term is derived from Greek ortho- ("correct") and graphos ("that writes") and, in today's sense, includes spelling and punctuation. Orthography is distinct from typography.

This would be absolutely outstanding! I hope and pray that the SBC has the guts to pass this resolution, and I hope and pray that its members have the guts to follow it. If it does pass, get ready for the knives to really come out. The media, academic, political, and cultural establishments are going to go completely crazy in their attempts to discredit homeschooling as dangerous, extreme, reactionary, regressive, fanatical, etc, etc, ad infinitum ad nauseum.
