The Rules of Engagement

M iseducation Education, the development of understanding, must be distinguished from training, the development of skill. Education in its purest sense is designed to empower individuals to fulfill purpose and maximize potential. There fore, miseducation is its antithesis. Modern education has been legislatively subverted into training, with taxpayer’s precious dollars being squandered to produce skilled individuals whose educational experience has stripped them of eleven essential elements of success and prosperity. These elements produce healthy, emotionally stable, economically empowered, contributing members of any society. They are creative thinkers, self-aware, principle driven, motivated, spiritually aware, self-disciplined, and critical thinkers. They have good life skills, interpersonal skills, crisis management skills, resource management skills, problem-solving skills (vs. victimization), and critical consciousness skills. Miseducation is responsible for the construction of an artificial consciousness held together by media propaganda at the expense of an authentic critical consciousness, which gives an individual the ability to perceive truth from error; to resist systemic, social, political, psychological, religious, or economic oppression; and to take action against tyrannical, autocratic, iron-fisted elements within a society controlled by the prince of the power of the air, who, according to 2 Corinthians 4:4, blinds the minds of people. In my research, I came across the following disturbing quote that proves the enemy’s deliberate efforts to miseducate entire populations: In our dream, we have limitless resources and the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hand. The present educational conventions fade from our minds, and unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive folk. We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or science. We are not to raise up from among them authors, orators, poets, or men of letters. We shall not search for embryos of great artists, painters, or musicians. Nor will we cherish even the humbler ambition to raise up from among them
