Hopefully, John, GGG’s attempt to hijack this thread and turn it into the same ole, same ole crevo thread will fail.
It is the least contentious I think I’ve ever read on FR, at least in recent memory. Folks are actually speaking without being shouted down with petty insults (something both sides are quite guilty of).
You are to be congratulated for that.
GGG, now you must write on the board 100 times, “I will not turn other’s crevo threads into free for alls like I like my own to be”.
Come to think of it, the longer one spends in a communist “education” system, the more likely one is to be a revolutionary evolutionist. Indeed, for those who go all the way to the top of a communist “educational” system, I would imagine that there would be very few non-communists left among their classmates. In fact, I am quite confident of this, as I have watched this story repeat itself over and over in the books written by Soviet, Red Chinese, Vietnamese, Eastern European, and Cuban defectors. In most cases they become more and more idealistic about communism the longer they remain in their indoctrination system, and then they become dissalusioned when they finally enter the “society” of their respective country-sized prison camps, and are soon dreaming of escape.
It seems the same thing holds true in the hard-left American university system. The higher American students rise in Indoctination U., the more likely they are to become an libtarted, evo-atheist, Obamabots. Indeed, isn’t the Obama administration filled with Ivy Leaguers who have earned graduate degrees from what David Horowitz would call Indoctrination U.?
