WESTERN CIVILIZATION IS NO LONGER BEING TAUGHT IN AMERICAN COLLEGES
Professor Walter Williams of George Mason University has issued a warning to American parents. Western civilization is no longer being taught at
American colleges.
“Western civilization was founded on a set of philosophies that focus
strongly on the sanctity of individuals and their power of logic and reason.
This belief led to a desire to trust things that could be proven to be true or
legitimate, from government to science. Judeo-Christian morality has
formed the basis of most Western notions of ethics and behavioral
standards. Thus, the attack on Western civilization must begin with the
attack on the church and Christian values, and, just as important, the
family unit must be undermined. The reason why the church, Christian values and family are targets of the left is they want people’s loyaltyand
allegiance to be to the state. The church, Christianity and the family stand in the way. Let’s look at some of the left’s agenda. . . .
“The greatest efforts to downplay the achievements of Western
civilization start at our colleges and universities. An American Council
of Trustees and Alumni 2016 study reported that ‘the overwhelming majority
of America’s most prestigious institutions do not require even the
students who major in history to take a single course on United States
history or government.’ Because of this ignorance, our young people fall
easy prey to charlatans, quacks and liars who wish to downgrade our founders
and the American achievement.”

This is why my Homeschool curriculum includes two years of Western civilization and two years of Western literature. It would be a huge mistake not to do this.
Students will not get this training at college.
