If anybody reading this Blog doubts this writer's position that society is in a state of decay (principally caused by the liberal left) may I please invite you to consider the following point:In schools, as a majority of teachers will testify and in particular those older staff whose careers have coincided with the decline, pupils lie through their teeth. It is now standard!
In days gone by a teacher would perhaps only mistrust the word of a few pupils in any group. Lying was not the done thing and honest admissions of wrongdoing would almost always be forthcoming when a child was caught out.
In our sick world, the equivalent pupil will lie and pile further lies on top of the original one until a fabrication of utter absurdity emerges. This is a daily occurrence.
If teachers expect support from the parents - they will be sadly disappointed as a great many parents will support their child in a lie - often the very ones who are always demanding 'more discipline' - but that of course, does not and should not apply to their own family.
Tragically, in addition, a number of parents who would never dream of lying to a teacher themselves will swallow garbage from their offspring, hook, line and sinker and then lend the little liar their total support and belief.
The amount of times I have heard "My child doesn't lie" makes my heart sink.
Parents lie about absences, medical appointments, homework that has not been handed in; they protect their truanting offspring with untruths, they make lame excuses and unbelievably will take the word of a mendacious child when that youngster has been caught redhanded by a teacher!
The left have overseen the outrageous decline in discipline in this nation and have poured scorn on concepts such as duty and decency - all against a backcloth of doing their utmost to undermine Christianity.
What else could have been expected?
And please do not think that Christian schools escape all of this. They may not have the problem quite as badly - but it is certainly there and not just with those from non-Christian backgrounds!
Mendacity, in my view, acts as a social barometer.
Are you as concerned as I am?
