Reformation of Education - Interview: Vishal Mangalwadi

December 2, 2020

Education is largely what has corrupted the Christian faith over the last 800 years and is central in the battle of the war of the worldviews. Is it time for another education reformation to salvage human civilization? It can only be salvaged, ultimately, by the discipleship of the nations through the education of Christ. On this edition of Generations Radio, Kevin Swanson interviews author Vishal Mangalwadi about the need for Christian influence in higher education.

The metastasis of faith downgrade in the United States occurred between 2011 and 2014. Barna Research recorded a precipitous drop-off of church attendance within just a few years, continuing well into 2020. For a hundred years plus, church attendance continued above forty percent until 2011. Within just nine years, 54% of the professing Christian population abandoned the church. Arguably, it was the worst per-year bloodletting for the Christian church in recorded history. What was the catalyst? What happened in 2012 to trigger the metastasis? It all started in New Mexico. . .

These are critical moments in American history. Will pastors go to jail? Will Christian counselors be fined? The stakes are pretty high for American elections, in that Trump’s appointee to the Supreme Court seems ready to defend religious liberties. Given a political apparatus that kills babies, promotes the breaking of the 6th, the 7th, and 8th commandments with great zeal, what are the possibilities they would break the 9th commandment? We wouldn’t be surprised. What is the Christian response to the election controversies?

We are in an age of rising skepticism, atheism, and an aggressive resistance to the Christian faith, capturing the minds of tens of millions of the younger generation. Now is the time for a robust equipping in a distinctively Christian way of thinking, a biblical ethic, biblical epistemology, and biblical apologetics. Here are some resources that will help. Free online training in apologetics can be found here: https://bahnsenproject.com/sample-of-titles/

Happy Thanksgiving! The Greek word of thanksgiving is literally translated: “The giving of thanks for God’s grace.” We are constantly aware of being graced, we say grace, and we share grace. The Christian life is a three-way grace! We give thanks for 400 years of a tremendous heritage handed down to us by the Plymouth Pilgrims.  Such a strong contrast between the slave-based economies and the family economy espoused by the Pilgrims! They experimented with socialism, and then settled on a free market economy early on. And they were strong on family discipleship. We are the next generation of Pilgrims.

On the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower landing in Plymouth harbor, celebrations are cancelled. Is the nation over? Or is it time to revisit our foundations? The Puritans and Pilgrims were God-centered, covenantal, reformed Christians. God blessed them with a generational faith that penetrated through 4-5 generations, and laid tremendous foundations for a nation. Alas, it is the colleges—Harvard College and other “Christian” colleges—that work hard to destroy the foundations fo the nation.

36 of the American States are mandating face coverings in public and over 100 countries have followed suit.  Here we attempt to deal with all 487 facets to the mask discussion. (That may be a slight exaggeration.) Those who are campaigning for freedom are after a good thing. . .but they should ask a question first. Why are there so many princes around here?

Over 98% of campaign finance contributions from the internet tech industry went to leftist causes in the 2020 elections. The agenda is sewn up — a monolithic, cultural juggernaut. It’s an anti-Christian, pro-homosexual, politically-correct, racially-tense, snowflake-driven, Gramscian totalitarian operation controlling the Tech World today. And, Christian employees had better stay in line with it, or be fired. How does one operate in a negative-culture like this?

Based on past history, empires and big nations don’t last much longer than 250 years. That’s coming up in 6 years, per Cal Thomas. The root cause of national social decay will be the abdication of men. We point out that the 7 nations in the world where man have abdicated in leadership are sinking fast by GDP/capita. Where men are still alive and active, the GDP/capita is still on the rise. What happens after the end? We recommend that families stay on a long term project and disciple their sons over 18-30 years to re-lay the foundations of a new society. Disciple on. Stay on mission.

Evolution can’t explain origins very well, but it certainly, most definitively cannot explain the brain. Whence comes Ideas? What is this moral conscience? What about logic? What about cognitive propositions? Are these things just the product of chemical processes. . . . in a purely material world? Why should I pay attention to Grass Growing in the Back Yard? Kevin Swanson interviews Bradley Sickler, on his new book “God on the Brain.”

We analyze the “second wave” of COVID-19, and then consider the annual mortality impact of COVID-19 compared to the Opioid Crisis and the Spanish Flu. So far, it was only 0.08 years lost on the overall mortality rate relative to non-epidemic mortality. Then, we take a look at the unhealthiest nations in the world, and find there are much bigger fish to fry than COVID-19, overall. But what does God’s Word say about factors contributing to longevity?
