From the Publisher

"Political correctness" replaces freedom of speech on college campuses, Moral Relativism slithers into high school sex education classes, and brainwashing techniques take root in kindergarten. These are just a few of the unsettling realities that emerge from today’s public school system. In his book Public Education Against America: The Hidden Agenda, Marlin Maddoux uncovers how America’s public education persistently erodes the faith and values of American children in an ongoing effort to create a godless, humanistic society.

Reading, Writing and Arithmetic went out the door, and in stepped Secular Humanism. Maddoux unveils the truth about what happens behind closed doors in classrooms across the nation. He uses actual events to disclose the warped worldviews that adversely affect how and what American children are taught, blacking out the Christian foundation of our nation and thrusting those values into the abyss of distant memory.

Discover how patriotism is shunned and acts of terrorism defended. Thoroughly researched and documented, this is one book that every taxpayer, parent, and college student must read.

I have read at least half a dozen books by people with widely diverse interests, but they are all saying the same thing--our kids are being systematically brainwashed into the atheistic worldview that is secular humanism. This book is the only one that explains exactly how the educators are doing it. It shows parents exactly what to look for, and how speech codes disguise what is really being taught. I know there are parents out there who think this is only going on in California and Massachusetts, but I can testify that these techniques have been used in Kansas for at least 20 years. They are the reason I pulled my kids out of the public schools. When my son was inducted into the gifted program, I couldn't understand why they had to do psychological profiles on him. Now I know. I spent some time in the education program at one of the public universities in Kansas and dropped out of it because they were training future teachers in the techniques described in this book. This book is a must read if only because it shows parents what to look for.

Whether you lean to the left or the right or are middle of the road this is a must read for all parents, educators and students! This book is not an attack on teachers. It is a revealing look at what is going on and the curriculum in today's public schools. Few realize the federal mandates and control imposed on all public schools and even fewer realize the basis of the curriculum which is being taught to our children, that often includes politicians and educators themselves. The book reveals the influences of the "Hegelian dialectic" and the psychology used to shape our children into what the secular progressives would have them to be. It reveals how our children are stripped of their values and lead to accept the values of an almost anything goes socialistic society. Only those far left and extremely liberal will not enjoy this book, and that is only because it reveals their dirty little secrets.

This review is from: Public Education Against America (Hardcover)

Public Education Against America reveals what's going on in public school that most parents don't know or refuse to believe. There really are people in high places pulling the strings to ensure your kids don't acquire the reading skills necessary to develop a good vocabulary or the writing skills necessary to develop those all-important thinking skills. If your child can think, they can't control him or her the way they do the millions of functionally illiterate public school graduates who depend on government support because their lack of learning makes it impossible for them to suppport themselves. Even worse, the same folks limiting core knowledge and thinking skills are successfully brainwashing your kids with the fundamentals of Humanism -- Darwinism, Moral Relativism and Socialism. If you don't believe it, read Maddoux' book and scores of others like it that are being published every year. These books are all saying the same thing -- someone is trying to control knowledge, all knowledge. That someone is your enemy and mine. Please get your kids out of Big Brother's schools before it's too late!
