Along with the endless propaganda of this evil world system; and alongside we of course have the education system. It is certainly understandable that many Christian parents have decided to home school; or find a private school education whenever possible. I have mixed feelings in regard to this; and part of it relates to my friend who is a Deacon with his kids in public school; 2 of which are now believers; and at least one of them wrote an essay espousing Christian concepts. The "safety" of Christian schools has to be carefully addressed; particularly in certain Megachurch affiliations where basically occult methodology is taught to children. The same; of course can be said for many formerly solid Christian colleges; we all need to be "wise as serpents; innocent as doves."
Anyhoo; moving along here we may have critical theories on certain subjects (I'll leave the word out) but critical thinking seems to be lacking. When we look more broadly at our lives we can do a psychoanalysis of developmental stages and state that we are a product of our genetics; education; culture; family; etc. Again; another example of someone I know who has a believing daughter that sends HER kids to public school is very interesting; she got to do a forum on a particular book and was able more than once apparently to give a Christian analysis in front of many school staff. I have stated before that if enough kids in public school want to pray after hours it can happen; and in fact it seems to me that may be the best way for any true revival to break out. They have to have a vision for their generation.
So back to the subject at hand. We can look today to spiritual concepts and understand that only God can reveal it to someone whose eyes have been supernaturally opened. Any impartial assessment would show the veracity of the Bible and reality of Satan but only God can reveal Himself and man's fallen state. THEN he repents seeing his evil heart
