Object: anti-Christian philosophy known as secular humanism

IN 1849, WHEN THE organized Protestants of Massachusetts debated whether to
back the public school movement, which was being promoted by the Unitarians,
they decided in favor of support, but with well-expressed conditions. They
wrote:
"The benefits of this system, in offering instruction to all, are so many
and so great that its religious deficiencies - especially since they can be
otherwise supplied - do not seem to be a sufficient reason for abandoning
it, and adopting in place of it a system of denominational parochial
schools....
"It is however a great evil to withdraw from the established system of
common schools the interest and influence of the religious part of the
community. On the whole, it seems to be the wisest course, at least for the
present, to do all in our power to perfect as far as it can be done, not
only its intellectual, but also its moral and religious character.
"If after a full and faithful experiment, it should at last be seen that
fidelity to the religious interests of our children forbids a further
patronage of the system, we can unite with the Evangelical Christians in the
establishment of private schools, in which more full doctrinal religious
instruction may be possible.
"But, until we are forced to this result, it seems to us desirable that the
religious community do all in their power to give an opportunity for a full
and fair experiment of the existing system, including not only the common
schools, but also the Normal Schools and the Board of Education."
I don't believe any Christian can doubt that there has been a "full and fair
experiment" of public education for the past 150 years and that its fidelity
to the religious interests of Christian children has been proven to be
decidedly negative. In fact, thousands of Christian parents, without
knowledge of what was written in 1849, already have taken their children out
of the public schools and either decided to homeschool them or place them in
Christian schools. Their responsibilities as Christian parents have led them
to make this necessary decision for the sake of their children's well-being.
But it is disturbing that most Christians still patronize a system that is
undermining the religious beliefs of their children. One wonders what must
happen before these parents realize the harm they are doing to their
children by keeping them in the government schools.
The simple fact is that the present government education system has as its
foundation an anti-Christian philosophy known as secular humanism. To
confirm the truth of this assertion, read the first and second Humanist
Manifesto. The first was written in 1933 by young Unitarian ministers who
believed the spiritual power of orthodox religion was in decline and should
be replaced by a rational, man-centered, nontheistic religion. They wrote:
"Humanism asserts that the nature of the universe depicted by modem science
makes unacceptable any supernatural or cosmic guarantees of human values....
Religious humanism considers the complete realization of human personality
to be the end of man's life and seeks its development and fulfillment in the
here and now...
"Religious humanism maintains that all associations and institutions exist
for the fulfillment of human fife. The intelligent evaluation,
transformation, control, and direction of such associations and institutions
with a view to the enhancement of human life is the purpose and program of
humanism. Certainly religious institutions, their ritualistic forms,
ecclesiastical methods, and communal activities must be reconstituted as
rapidly as experience allows, in order to function effectively in the modern
world."
Humanism is the only religion in America that has as its purpose and program
the reconstitution of the institutions, rituals, and ecclesiastical methods
of other religions. This is an overt declaration of war against biblical
religion.
Forty years later, Humanist Manifesto II stated: "As non-theists, we begin
with humans not God, nature not deity. [W]e can discover no divine purpose
or providence for the human species.... No deity will save us; we must save
ourselves."
In the January/February 1983 issue of The Humanist magazine, a young scholar
by the name of John J. Dunphy expressed the aim of humanists in education:
"I am convinced that the battle for humankind's future must be waged and won
in the public school classroom by teachers who correctly perceive their role
as the proselytizers of a new faith: a religion of humanity that recognizes
and respects the spark of what theologians call divinity in every human
being. These teachers must embody the same selfless dedication as the most
rabid fundamentalist preachers, for they will be ministers of another sort,
utilizing a classroom instead of a pulpit to convey humanist values in
whatever subject they teach, regardless of educational level preschool day
care or large state university. The classroom must and will become an arena
of conflict between the old and the new, the rotting corpse of Christianity,
together with its adjacent evils and misery, and the new faith of humanism,
resplendent in its promise of a world in which the never-realized Christian
ideal of 'love they neighbor' will finally be achieved."
The humanist war against Christianity is going on every day in the
classrooms of America. But the real battle is being fought in the courtrooms
of the nation. In March 1987, U.S. District judge W. Brevard Hand ruled in

In other words, humanists are free to teach their dogma in the public

at the same time it is said that the mere inclusion of anything Christian in

such humanists as Dunphy. This is not neutrality but warfare. Until
Christians recognize that government schools are establishments of religion,
and that education is fundamentally a religious activity, we shall not be
able to deal realistically with our educational crisis.
This is the key question for Christian parents: Does educating a child in a
public school violate God's commandment in Deuteronomy 6 to raise a child in
the love and admonition of the Lord? There is no substitute for a godly
education. In place of God, the public schools offer evolution, sex
education, death education, multiculturalism, transcendental meditation,
situational ethics, drug education, and other humanist teachings. These
programs are creating the new nihilists, amoral barbarians that are
devastating the fives of thousands of parents. There is hardly a Christian
family that has not lost a child to the satanic culture growing in the
public school environment.
If Christians wish to restore America as a nation under God, they shall have
to educate their children in schools that revere Him.

and that education is fundamentally a religious activity, we shall not be
able to deal realistically with our educational crisis.
This is the key question for Christian parents: Does educating a child in

a

public school violate God's commandment in Deuteronomy 6 to raise a child

in

the love and admonition of the Lord? There is no substitute for a godly
education. In place of God, the public schools offer evolution, sex
education, death education, multiculturalism, transcendental meditation,
situational ethics, drug education, and other humanist teachings. These
programs are creating the new nihilists, amoral barbarians that are
devastating the fives of thousands of parents. There is hardly a Christian
family that has not lost a child to the satanic culture growing in the
public school environment.
If Christians wish to restore America as a nation under God, they shall

have

to educate their children in schools that revere Him.
Samuel L. Blumenfeld
--
Atheism teaches that there is no God, hence no God-given rights. That
ideology coupled with a system that believed in the superiority of the

state

at the expense of the individual was murderously synergistic.
