Should we stop teaching history?

There is a saying among some: "Our history is unpredictable."

There is no such thing as unbiased history, and even if there were, there are none to tell it.

Perhaps we should wait for the Islamicists or the Communist Chinese to tell us our history.

Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.

We just have to wait and see who is in control.

“The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world”.... someone smart said that.

The libs have targeted our children for indoctrination for decades.

No, we teach history to our children, explain why the libs are wrong. Give our children a second opinion.

peace to you

That'd be William Wallace. Van Halen wrote The Cradle Will Rock.

Mine was George Orwell. But also Rage Against the Machine.

And I agree. We see this in many movements (how genders are viewed, the acceptance of "alternative" life styles).

The way I always heard it was, "When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall…"

They've been indoctrinating more than the children. People have been convinced to abort or not conceive, because of overpopulation or a bad world. Then they import millions of foreign born, because our population is too low or the rest of the world is too bad, but ours isn't.

A few years ago I was dismayed to find that a federal government agency was providing false information to the public. In the early days of electric and hybrid cars, the EPA put on the window stickers the "equivalent MPG." However, when I looked at the math the assessment was bogus, treating potential energy as kinetic energy. I did not believe no one in the review process had an understanding of high school physics, so my conclusion was that the error was agenda driven.

Do not misunderstand, electric cars are indeed cheaper to operate than fossil fuel cars, but the margin was being exaggerated by the EPA or its controllers.

Christians believe in truth, but when non-Christians gain control, it is Katie bar the door.

BUT the world is NOT overpopulated! Theotorically the worlds entire population could fit into the State of Texas.
Granted, there would be no space for stores, factories, ect, But we would have the rest of CONUS for all that.

Texas is about 7% of the entire land area of the Continental United States (which does not include Alaska or Hawaii)

So this world does not have overpopulation. - it is cities that may be overpopulated.
Even here in Upstate New York - you can drive for miles and not see one house.

Remember - history is written by the victors


So, lets tell all three sides of a story.

Yes, all of that is merely expanding on my point. What they say is for the purpose of indoctrination to carry out an agenda, not for disseminating truth. They aren't merely liars, but hypocritical liars with ill intent.
