Moral Education

To educate a person in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society. - Theodore Roosevelt



Public education (particularly higher education) has moved towards eliminating any education involving morality because of the prevailing belief that one cannot determine what is right or wrong. My view of "wrong" may be different from yours, you know, and who's to say which is correct? Balderdash. This warped thinking is akin to saying we should have multiple Presidents because some like one candidate and others like another, so both should fill the office. One of things which makes a society is its prevailing moral code. It's what we live by - to ignore it is to splinter an already tenuous situation.
