No Bibles in a Kindergarten Show and Tell

June 4, 2009
How Education Frames the Mind of a Nation
The Third Circuit Court of Appeals disallows the reading of the Bible for public school Kindergarten Show and Tell. Chief Judge Scarica doesn't want "religious texts" in the classroom, but Kevin Swanson points out that every textbook is a religious text. It's only one religious text, only one worldview that is forthrightly rejected in American public schools – the biblical worldview.

Communism in Amerika?
Pravda News in Russia carries an article pointing out the rise of communist tendencies in American government, remarking that freedom is dying without so much as a whimper from the masses. We take a moment to savor the irony, and then attribute the success of the rising socialist state to socialist indoctrination centers – called public schools.

The Real Villains A mass murderer was murdered by another murderer in a church where the mass murderer served as an usher. What a mess! Where do you start on a story like this? Kevin Swanson compares it to one hit man knocking off another hit man. If anybody's keeping track of the body count in all of this, here's our tally: Babies – 50,000,000. Abortion Killers – 7. But wait. Who are the real villains in this story? Kevin Swanson places the blame for the state of the nation at the feet of The Rev. Lowell Michelson and The Rev. Kristin Neitzel.

Nuclear Weapons from a Biblical Worldview North Korea. Iran. Pakistan. At least twenty nations now have enough raw material to make at least one nuclear weapon. The genie is out of the bottle and in another 50 years will be significantly larger. So how do we look at Nuclear War by way of a biblical worldview - a biblical anthropology, a biblical ethic, and a biblical soteriology. If the Romans 3 perspective of man is accurate (and we assume it is), what are odds that nuclear warheads will be flying around cities within the next few decades? If there were Christians in power who actually believed a biblical ethic on war (per Deut. 20), what sort of defense systems should we put together for our families? This is an important program if you want to keep your families alive for another generation or two.

Healing Hearts If 43% of women have had an abortion, what happens to these millions of moms and dads who are now coming to grips with the reality of what they have done? In one of the most powerful programs we have ever aired, Sue Liljenberg from Healing Hearts Ministries walks us through the process. What does it take to make this walk? It takes nothing short of the supernatural power of God for a person to both realize they have killed their own child, and then to receive the forgiveness of God at the cross of Christ!

The Problem of Distracted, Disengaged Fathers If more fathers wanted to protect their daughters' purity and insisted on modesty in heart and dress, would clothing styles be any different than they are today? Would their fifteen year old daughters pose for Vanity Fair magazine, or stand up for their Christian faith in a bikini on national television? Seldom discussed in Christian media, but highly significant in all of this is the problem of disconnected, disinterested, and distracted fathers. Kevin Swanson interviews James and Stacy McDonald on the subject of modesty, with a special focus on dad's role in protecting the purity and modesty of his daughters.

Christians who Work for the Mafia Should you get a job teaching that the beginning of knowledge is NOT the fear of God? Should you work in sex education classes in a high school, explaining the failure rates of condoms, drawing the distinctions between forms of homosexual activity. . . while you are not permitted to teach it in the fear of God? Should you as a Christian contractor, construct torture cells in Guantanamo for the purpose of torturing Christians, or even Muslims for that matter? What if the government has just confiscated 8 properties from widows in your county, and they want to sell it to you for ten cents on the dollar? Kevin Swanson addresses the tricky questions of being in the world but not of it, in this segment of Generations. Should Christian home educators take money from the government and the concomitant controls? What if the government wants to give you $10,000 for a research project on the procreating behavior of aardvarks during a full moon?

What it Would Take for a Rational Person to Believe in Evolution Although not even considered by evolutionists as any sort of a link between chimpanzee and human, the media and the masses are pretty tickled about Ida, the new "missing link." Challenged by an atheist, Kevin Swanson sets out to identify the sorts of evidence he (or any rational person) should need to believe that a rock turned into an ape by historical macro-evolutionary process. Belief is defined as getting red in the face and hollering demeaning things at people who don’t believe that it happened. Also, you know some people really, really believe in this when they express their macro-evolution theory in a matter-of-fact, dogmatic way in billions of pages of scientific studies, on millions of web pages, in millions of public schools and university class rooms, thousands of national parks and museums, etc. etc.

A Higher Law With the ever-expanding federal tyranny over the states, some state governments (like Montana) are drawing up legislation to exempt themselves from federal regulations. With Walter Williams we wonder if the state governments "will summon the courage to declare some of these federal laws null and void, and refuse to obey enforce them." Kevin Swanson talks to the possibility of secession should the present decisions of our federal government take the nation into bankruptcy. 67% of Protestant Clergy Support Homosexual Rights So what is real reason this nation is backing into tyranny? "Either you'll be governed by God, or by God you'll be governed!" When the faith of a nation unravels in the churches, what can we expect in the courts?

Implicit Trust in the AMA Tissue from aborted babies contributed to the development of vaccines used for rubella, measles, mumps, chickenpox, polio, or hepatitis A and B. How many Christians and pro-life conservatives back into serving as accomplices and participants in the baby-killing businesses? Kevin Swanson points out that there are a few companies producing ethical vaccinations, and discourages implicit trust in today's medical systems. Family Jurisdictions in Medical Decisions A Minnesota family makes a run for the border with the police in hot pursuit. The crime: They would really rather not take the AMA-recommended Chemo treatment for their son. Kevin Swanson applies biblical law in the case and draws jurisdiction boundaries between state and family.

The Urban Homemaker In a day of fragmented families and big-business oriented economies, one family’s vision took them on an amazing journey. The life of faith is not always pretty, but it is also not without its joys and triumphs! When Duane and Marilyn Moll took the trip all the way home in the early 1990s with home schooling and home businesses, they had no idea what would lie ahead of them. Marilyn Moll tells the inspiring story of Urban Homemaker on this edition of Generations. There are many different ways that Christian families are incarnating the biblical model for home life, integrated families, and Proverbs 31 home-managers. But in a world of egalitarianism, socialist-driven economies, family disintegration, and institutionalized, non-discipleship oriented education, it is a huge inspiration to see a few families embracing the biblical vision and trying out a few incarnations of that vision!

Ideas have Consequences Worldviews are important things, and they can be dangerous. If you pick the wrong worldview or if you were to give your children the wrong worldview, you will bring unmitigated evil upon this earth. Worldviews are taught primarily through education, and they will impact the way you think about everything, the way you vote, the way your families will live thirty years from now, and the way you consider science and the environment. Bill Jack from Worldview Academy joins us on this edition of Generations to share concerning the many implications of a worldview.
