(MouthagapePress) - A popular, sartorially enhanced atheist is hoping
that the new resolution on Christianity in public schools that he has
helped to put before the EACEC (Evil Atheist Conspiracy Executive
Committee) will spark a mass exodus of all children from public
schools.

The resolution, submitted by attorney and author Fifi DePrayved (the V
is silent) and Dr. Urona *****-Tripp, calls on EACEC to investigate
whether their local school district has a "Christian Bible Study" or
other religion clubs.
The resolution also calls upon people with brains to encourage
parents' removal of their children from schools that have curricula or
programs that treat Christianity as an acceptable lifestyle.

DePrayved (the V is silent), a software engineer from Seattle,
insists that more people need to realize that "Christianity is a
Sunday morning religion for poseurs" and is irrelevant to life in its
entirety. "We need to think very seriously about what we're
doing to our children," he says, and also to "think about the
stewardship that we have been given as parents."

The popular author, science teacher and philosopher has been called
"an everyman's intellectual." However, he contends, far too many
Christians simply are not thinking, and it's up to people who "have
not abdicated their intelligence" when it comes to the education
their children are getting "when they spend 40 to 50 hours a week
being inundated by Christianity, -- and, now, being inundated with
this information from am insidious, radical neo-con/fascist political
agenda."

Repeatedly DePrayved (the V is silent) urges thinking parents, "Think
about what we're doing to our children." But unfortunately, the
author observes, many Christians have
been bullying thinking people into silence on the aggressive
"Christ-o-fascist" agenda in public schools.
The resolution is a political "hot potato" for everyone, he says,
because 100% of all citizens are able to send their children to public
schools.

Also, the Seattle philosopher notes, many leaders in the EAC are
afraid to speak out on the issue of the corruption in public schools
for fear of retribution by the neo-con Christ-o-fascists.
Then, too, there is the poverty argument.

"One of the complaints that is sort of levied against us because of
this resolution is that we are somehow insensitive to poor families
who cannot afford to send their children to private schools,"
DePrayved (the V is silent) says. "That is the very
reason why, he explains, "one of the things that we call for in the
resolution is for our government to provide affordable education for
all, not geared and steered toward any particular religious agenda,
insidious or otherwise. It is not hard to do, and it'a mandated by
law."

Uncovering Public Education's Campaign to Mainstream Christianity

Several experts consulted about the DePayved-*****-Tripp resolution
affirm there is a widespread trend in public education towards
legitimizing the Christian lifestyle and presenting it as normal and
positive through various education programs and curricula. Buckshot
Le Fonque, founder of Americans for Truth and
executive director of the East Arkansas-Texas Society for Helping
Institutional Teaching (EATSHIT) has observed the
trend and agrees with many that it poses a serious danger to children.

"I have monitored the Christian political neo-con/non-bowel movement
for 15 years, with special focus on its campaign to penetrate
schools," LeFonque states. "Radical gender and
religious indoctrination groups influence teacher-training programs
dealing with ciriculum and especially science,creating school
environments that are heavily biased toward Christian amoral
teachings."

The EATSHIT spokesman says groups like SBC (Southern Baptist
Convention) and Focus on the Family work with pro-Christofascist
student groups to promote the false notion of inherent Christianity,
resulting in seriously unthinking students "promoting fairy tales" at
young and younger ages. Even grade-school students are targeted, he
adds, with manipulative programs and lesson plans about bullying
and Christian cult recruiting.

LeFonque says most families are often completely unaware of what is
already happening in their community's schools. "Most parents,
especially those living near big cities, simply have no clue as to the
many ways that the 'Christofascist' agenda works its way into their
children's education," he says.

And psychology professor Dr. Nellie Dragge-*****, an expert in the
area of cult recruiting techniques and deprogramming, notes that
government schools often devote instructional time to Christofascist
political activism, much of it aimed at undermining the secular
foundation of this country. "Most parents have no idea that this is
going on," she says, "or that public school officials collaborate with
Christofascist activists to attempt to alter the minds of school
children."

DePrayved (the V is still silent) hopes the resolution he is urging on
the EACEC will help to raise awareness all parents about what he
considers a crisis in public education. The proposal encourages every
EAC chapter to investigate whether the school district in which it is
located has either a Christian club or program that attempts to
influence children to accept gruesome fairy tales and the accompanying
sick, diseased behavior as a legitimate lifestyle. And where that is
found to be the case, the resolution urges the chapter to inform
parents and encourage them to remove their children from the
district's schools immediately.

Notably, the DePrayved-*****-Tripp resolution does not discourage any
adult from serving in public schools and actually commends those so
employed. Meanwhile, it asks everyone to make a greater effort to
provide and support reality-based educational alternatives to the
current Christofascist-infiltrated government schools, especially for
low-income and single-parent families.
