Great point. Perfect response to them.
First they manage to convince students that God doesn't exist and ban the teaching of Creationism but allow a "theory" on evolution to be taught.
Now they are teaching students to be ashamed of the greatest country to grace this earth in 5000 years.
If students want to be ashamed of something be ashamed of any person bad mouthing this country and her founding principles. Better yet, bad mouth all the people in positions of power that have abused their power and have committed crimes against humanity.
College students are cultivating an increasingly pessimistic view of the United States and their futures as their national pride deteriorates in university classrooms across the nation, a newly published American College Student Freedom, Progress and Flourishing Survey confirms.
More than half of self-identified liberal students say they have developed a more negative view of the United States as a result of their higher education curriculum, while nearly one-third of students who identified as conservative shared their growing pessimism about America, according to the annual college student survey.
Political ideology significantly impacts students’ national pride.
While 52 percent of students say they are proud to be American, most of the patriotic students are conservative.
“A majority of conservative students (86 percent) are proud to be American compared to 38 percent of those who identify as liberal students and 59 percent of self-identified independents,” the survey notes.
Conservative students are significantly less inclined to accept the paradigm about American presented in the classroom. Eighty-one percent of liberal students say “college is giving them a more accurate picture of the U.S.” while “only 44 percent of conservative students” trust what they are being told about America.
