Free To Be You And Me...

Anyone hear about the new "reform math"?... Yeah, its the math where you don't have to get the right answer as long as you do the problem right... Ok... Let's think about this... It's math... If you do the problem right, you get the answer right, if you do the problem wrong, you get the answer wrong... There is really no way around it... But now, there are apparantly schools attempting to teach kids "reform math" so that nobody is wrong... It's supposed to help kids learn somehow...

You know, it is one thing to tell a parent they are not allowed to spank their kids, but now we can't even tell them they did something wrong?... The funny thing is that the math is changing because the "traditional method" didn't help kids learn enough... Funny how you can add "traditional" to anything today and it automatically becomes antiquated and in need of "improvement"... Asinine... There is a difference between what is traditional and what is right...

Seriously, what pathetic moron would think up such a thing?... I guess that we can't have absolutes in America because it may offend somebody... Or, it may cause somebody to think logically and put two and two together to equal absolute truth in the world... (pun intended)...

In an age when science rules because it is more "logical" than "religion" (although what was once good science is quickly becoming what one may now call, "reform science") it is mind boggling how people have exchanged true logic for such pathetic nonsense...

Funny how the age of reason would lead to such an unreasonable end... Man didn't need revelation to find "god," only reason... 'Course, now he doesn't even need that...

Yeah, I know I was talking about math, but the problem goes deeper than some moron who can't add... It goes to what kids would learn (or not learn, rather) through an idea so stupid...

This whole post-modern thing is so dumb...

People follow scientists over preachers because scientists claim to be logical and preachers are merely folk-lore story tellers... But, when you really look into a lot of scientist's claims on how God isn't, you find no logic, only bias... (don't get me wrong, im not saying science is bad, but there IS bad science... it is the science that people have begun to create through their bias rather than facts...) The same goes for this whole math thing... Let's just "be free to be you and me"... Nobody is wrong... Except the Christians...

And its not even as if we are teaching this in college as a "new way to think" or some crap like that... It's teaching kids that it is "the" way to think... Let's disregard all logic and all absolutes... Then we will have a nice leaderless country built on nothing, inhabited by lifeless, whiny, thirty year old children...

But... People hear only what they want to hear... Always...

I thank God that this is not all there is... For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain... I hate this world... I hate that so many people speak and say so little... I hate that the words that should be heard are heard by so few... I long for that city whose builder and founder is God... (and has proper mathmatical measurements...) There is truly no satisfaction in this world...

Oh, Lord... When will You rise up?...

Oh, Lord... When will I rise up?...

Father, may my obedience be true to You... For where else can I go?... You have the words of life... I live to follow You... Please lead me through this sick world to accomplish Your will...
