America would be better off without its universities

IMHO,  American culture and values are being destroyed by today's universities. Education is not what led America to become great. It is American values, traditions and Judea-Christian ethics that have led America to become the freest, wealthiest, most benevolently powerful nation that this world has ever seen. American Universities are removing the very things from our culture that led America to become exceptional. These things include the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God and the spiritual principles that this nation was founded upon. History is being re-written to fit a political agenda and civics is rarely taught anymore.

I came across this excellent article written by a conservative university professor. He describes how today's universities are indoctrinating our youth. It's called: "Swimming Upstream: The Life of a Conservative Professor in Academia"

Here is an excerpt from this excellent article:

The overwhelmingly liberal atmosphere on campus is well known. In the one place in society at which there should be diversity of thought, exploration of conflicting ideas and a propensity to challenge conventional wisdom, we have instead a mind-numbing conformity of opinion and a complete unwillingness to entertain any thought or idea that deviates from the accepted truth. That conformity encompasses:

•The legitimacy of virtually any program that promotes the interests of minority and female faculty, staff and students, even if the program is blatantly racist or sexist -- justified by a belief that America's past unjust treatment of blacks, American Indians and Japanese-Americans, and its unfair treatment of women render such discrimination necessary and lawful.

•A multicultural mentality, which preaches that America's Eurocentric, white, Christian heritage is responsible for colonialism, imperialism, racism and sexism, and that its replacement by a culture that "celebrates diversity" will transform the US into a more just and humane society.

•A distrust of free markets and democratic capitalism, and its severe limitation in favor of a centralized, government-controlled economy that will redistribute the wealth of America more fairly.

•A denigration of religious belief and its replacement by the "worship" of secular humanism, with mindless environmentalism occupying a central place in the new religion.
