One day, in the end, the Truth will matter. And every knee will bow to the One who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Until then, we will see all manner of distortions of the truth on every hand. A college friend of mine named Alec mentioned on Facebook today that he'd read this textbook excerpt and he added:
"I wish I could say I haven't had any experience like this in college. Unfortunately, I have. I had an American History class that was practically a course in how capitalism/conservatism has destroyed America since the 1700's and why Socialism/Communism is the far better answer. Book was written by an author who was kicked out of his school for extremist communist views. Assignments were opinion based responses to the readings and our thoughts about them. I consistently received failing grades for disagreeing with the text and defending my own conservative ideals."
And then, one by one, his Christian colleagues, also in college, posted similar comments of their experiences. I'm so sorry it has come to this in America. But I'm so proud of these kids!
