Horace Mann is the person credited with starting government-run education in the United States in 1839.  He learned his techniques for Prussia.  His motivation was to end education by Christians.  Horace Mann was a Unitarian, did not believe in the inspiration of the Bible, or the Trinity.  Horace Mann’s religion was Secularism.

John Dewey, in the 1920s and 1930s, really established Horace Mann’s principles.  He introduced the concept of "Humanistic education as a religion."  Dewey was President of the American Humanist Association and a signer of the first Humanist Manifesto.  He saw Christianity as a huge problem that needed to be solved.  Dewey’s religion was Secularism.

Horace Mann visualized a world where no one would be in the prisons, a virtual utopia, if he could just get Christianity out of education.  He has largely succeeded, and the result is horrible in terms of teen pregnancies, abortions, assaults, robberies, murders, rapes, vandalisms, and the list goes on.  Horace Mann, in his idiocy, predicted utopia, but he got the currently increasingly awful mess.

The President of the NEA, the teacher’s union, sees things the way the Mann and Dewey saw things.  Christians need to be eliminated.  Censorship of Christianity is very obvious in public schools.  The teaching of Secularism, sometimes called Humanism, is also very obvious.  An NIE study concluded that public education is very biased against anything Christian, including marriage.

The President of the NEA contends that there is no such thing as a Humanist, yet there is a Humanist Association, a Humanist Manifesto, and Humanist Dogma.

Looking in Public School text books tells us that Humanism, or Secularism, is being taught very thoroughly.  In addition, Christianity is being excluded.  The following tenets of Secularism are the major theme in public school text books:

• Evolution
• Individual Autonomy
• Rebelliousness Against Parents
• Promiscuity
• Perversion
• Child Molestation
• Realism, which is a term used to describe presentation of a very negative slant on life
• Anti-Family
• Anti-Free Enterprise / Pro-Socialism
• Drug and Alcohol use
• Relativism
