Conceived in Liberty.
February 20, 2013
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."It's absolutely mind boggling how there can actually be debates on whether or not the U.S. Constitution should be included within the subject curriculum in our public schools. The document that serves to protect our natural rights of liberty and property while limiting the government's power over states and the public, the document which establishes the rules and powers granted to the three branches of our federal government, the document which is the foundation for the rights we are granted as citizens of the United States of America affecting our daily existence within this land, and somehow, there are individuals who question whether or not the new generations growing up and living in this country should learn anything within the school system about the laws which will affect the rest of their lives while they live here?
New laws are being passed in more and more states affecting our individual rights which are downright appalling. If the general public doesn’t have any knowledge of what rights our Constitution grants us, then who will notice if our rights start being revoked, one by one?
No longer is evolution taught within our school system, the scientific study of evolution has now been replaced within the school curriculum with the religious study of "Creationism".
Somehow, the citizens of this country are questioning whether or not it's acceptable to teach within the school system about the documents that govern the law of this land, meanwhile we have somehow allowed it to become acceptable to teach religious views within the school system, even though the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights within our Constitution grants us freedom of religion, or irreligion.
How is it possible that the culture of our nation has degraded into being more consumed by the latest trend of Harlem Shake videos and keeping up with the Kardashians (I had to Google these 2 references after repeatedly hearing about them without having any idea what these referred to), than actually caring to be educated regarding the laws that affect our individual rights?
Wake up, America. WAKE UP.
