![]() Right And WrongA Poem by Kenneth The Poetthe insane ones say it openly
the bullshit being spewed is the only thing that matters
who cares if schools do teach right and wrong in terms of how to behave in the classroom and in the online world
the educators are at the front line
they are the vanguard
they can speak more effectively on morality that critics of the education system
teachers don't allow pornography to be seen
teachers don't allow chatting with others online
teachers don't allow uneducational video viewing
teachers largely comport to an established moral standard that is cultural
and largely Christian in fact
the churches in America are Christian
mostly Jesus-accepting
mostly Trinitarian
all likely preaching a strong moral foundation
schools are teaching students a secular digital citizenship curriculum that can easily be connected to Christian tenets
any rational mind can see that
and people should be smart enough to see that?
and maybe that's the point
maybe the outsiders care more about their dogmas than the reality that the insiders see daily
the Christian bubble makes them superior to the ones who fight these battles on a daily basis
or not?
who knows?
the world has never been an easy place to live in
it takes a village to raise a child
any number of children in fact
and the good members of the village keep the bad members in check
but self-policing is not the be-all, end-all of moral protectionism
yet all villages have codes of conduct that must be followed and schools are part of the village
the logical extension is made, moral relativism is not taught in school
right actions and wrong actions are, end of story © 2013 Kenneth The Poet |
