Public schools have long ago abandoned the off-brand Protestant patriotism that used to characterize them, and now are organized around a very different principle: Utilitarian hedonism. The lowest-common-denominator moral code imaginable, this creed asserts that what matters in life is maximizing one’s physical health, and the number of happy moments you enjoy before you die. The only sins are not against nature or God, but against one’s neighbor’s rightful claim to his own share of happy moments. It is the job of the government -- and its proxies who will be educating you from the age of four or so -- to achieve the most happy moments for the greatest number of people. (John Zmirak)
