BUD LIGHT II

 

"The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) unanimously voted to adopt a resolution which encourages schools to adopt lessons on gender identity and sexual orientation, just days after parents protested the proposed materials.

"The district’s adopted resolution 'encourages all schools to incorporate lessons on the LGBTQ+ community in instruction” and recognizes June as LGBTQ+ Pride Month and October as LGBTQ+ History Month. On Friday, parents of students from Saticoy Elementary School within LAUSD pushed back against a Pride event that showed a video to children explaining that 'some kids have two mommies, some kids have two daddies.'"  (Reagan Reese)

The quote is a portion of a longer article. But from that alone, you get the gist of the rest. It goes on to exhort other districts to follow its lead; in fact, the statement says that following its lead"must be done." 

As with most matters, there's the rest of the story and it concerns a description of the LAUSD. The Los Angeles Unified School District is a leviathan turned juggernaut. It's the second largest school district in America, having a student population of 600,000. In August of 2022 the LAUSD  boosted the district’s overall spending plan to $19.9 billion, with $14.8 billion set aside for its operating budget, which primarily funds day-to-day expenses. 

If the present graduation rates hold, every May, 77% of those 600,000 will graduate and enter society. That's a total of 462,000 new voters and future leaders, and educators and journalists and the rank and file. 

The above article noted a parental "push back" against the 12-year indoctrination process. This push back against Bud Light, Target, North Face is what the majority call "the culture war" but they're wrong. It's not a culture war. The misnomer causes a misdiagnosis of what's really going on. We should rightly call it a "spiritual war." 

The goal for the 600,000 is that, at the end of the production line, i. e. graduation, is that they come out with a physical as well as a spiritual diploma. Their spiritual diploma represents a degree with a major in Rebellion, a rebellion against God and His Word. It's a thorough immersion in rebellion.

Paul revealed the truth of a vast, worldwide conspiracy that's part of this spiritual war. He did so in two texts. II Corinthians 4:4: "The god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they will not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God." The 12-year indoctrination process is an example of this blinding.

The other text is, "For our struggle is . . . against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." (Ephesians 6:12)

If the illness is misdiagnosed as" a culture war," the prescription that follows is in error. The medication becomes getting out the vote. Yet history shows that no democracy has ever voted itself out of this problem. A Scotsman named Alexander Fraser Tyler (1747-1813) said it well as he pinpointed the problem as a spiritual one:

"Nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”  

Paul wrote the prescription in these words: "We preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block, and to Gentiles foolishness."
