It is a fact that our education system is producing garbage compared to some other countries.   

I submit that the reason for this is the rejection of our traditional culture and its value system.   

The assumptions made for rejecting what worked supremely are obviously wrong based on every measure applied on every dimension.   But fools are the last to recognize that they are fools, refusing to admit mistakes, digging down deeper rather than digging themselves out.   

The fundamental assumption that has led to the downward spiral, not just in America but in every western nation, is the assumption that there is no God.   
Without God there are no absolutes.   
Without God there is no purpose to life.   
Without God there is no sense of order.   
Without God man has to worry about nature.   
Without God more people are sick mentally, emotionally and physically.   
Without God we have no unalienable rights.   
Without God we are at the mercy of the state which considers itself god.
