Grassroots Media Reaching America With Truths on Common Core

ARE YOU STANDING IN THE GAP For These Children???

  Mainstream media has missed out on bringing one of the biggest stories ever in American History--the attempt to change America from land of freedom to tyranny in the schoolroom.  But because this affects the center of families there is a movement astir in the hearts and minds of parents and grandparents and others who love America and its children.  They have grasped the mainstream media omission.  So they are taking to the streets, to the churches and yes to the small town festivals etc. because they know this has eternal implications and the God of Truth is on their side.  They stand on very powerful scriptures such as:

Mathew 18:5-6 states: “ And whoever receives and welcomes one little child like this for MY sake and in MY name receives and welcomes ME.
Vs6: But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in and cleave to me to stumble and sin-- who entices or hinders him in the right conduct or thought—it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Ezekiel 22:30 states: “And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before ME for the land, that I should not destroy it; But I Found NONE…

They know they can not afford to be none...so here's a sample of one outreach and there will be many more as the Sleeping Giant has awakened and they can not be bought.

Here are some pictures and what was used to share the truth--hope it gives others ideas on what to do for such a time as this.

Here is a link to the flyer used (front side) (optional-copy and paste for back side)

Points to consider as to why you would need to get involved is:

• Your parental authority has been replaced by Washington bureaucrats--can you trust them in light of IRS-gate, Benghazi-gate, Obamacare?
• They are gathering 400 data points on your children--why and for who?
  

• Points from interview with Mental Health Therapist brings out very troubling points for parents and those who want to keep this nation for freedom loving people--

1. Greatest fear with this curriculum is they are teaching children in the emotional activity part of the brain which doesn't think.  The person who is there most of their day is very emotionally reactive and will therefore be easily manipulated and all one has to do is trigger their fear, anger, resentment and they react because there is not great thought process there (it is fight or flight).  
2. The idea that students should get together and that group think is source of truth--a real problem as group think is extremely volatile.  Group think is extemely pressurizing and give great value to conformity than independence and individual thought.
3. We need to use the research we know and not ignore it or trash it as Common Core is doing as these facts are important to the teaching of children.
4. We will rear generation that is not just more vulnerable to emotional stress, emotional challenges but is very easily manipulated.  It just takes one trigger and you have a national mob-that is being motivated by anger and revenge-very easily manipulated.
5. In contrast a generation that knows how to think independently--they are free because they aren't easily manipulated.  

These are observations off of Elementary Grade Textbooks--why these kind of textbooks are in existence should make every parent want to do their own research.  Please do--here are a couple of websites:

Words of wisdom from Professor Sandra Stotsky (the only ELA expert on the National Validation Committee  and would not sign off on Common Core):"For these Superintendent and others who say we've spent so much and we gotta continue--No! If you're feeding poison to your children, you don't want to continue using that posion supply even if you've invested a lot of money buying it!"  Here is her interview link.

Observations From Interview With A Mental Health Therapist On Common Core

"Interview with a Clinical Mental Health Therapist"--on YouTube -Excerpts on Common Core :

• Risk of this type of approach could seriously set the mental health resilience of children back 50 years because the concept they advocate are opposed to the research used now.

• Children are being taught to think and use words that have high emotional impact that gives biggest reaction creates anger, competition, resentment (negative).

• Children's reasoning abilities won't be finished 'til age 24.  What is finished is their primitive part, the limbic system, part that engage when we feel threatened, shamed.

• What we should be doing for children is not training them in the limbic system with emotionally charged activity.

• Greatest fear with this curriculum is they are teaching children in the emotional activity part of the brain which doesn't think.  The person who is there most of their day is very emotionally reactive and will therefore be easily manipulated and all one has to do is trigger their fear, anger, resentment and they react because there is not great thought process there (it is fight or flight).  

• The idea that students should get together and that group think is source of truth--a real problem as group think is extremely volatile.  Group think is extemely pressurizing and give great value to conformity than independence and individual thought.

• We need to use the research we know and not ignore it or trash it as Common Core is doing as these facts are important to the teaching of children.

• We will rear generation that is not just more vulnerable to emotional stress, emotional challenges but is very easily manipulated.  It just takes one trigger and you have a national mob-that is being motivated by anger and revenge-very easily manipulated.

•  In contrast a generation that knows how to think independently--they are free because they aren't easily manipulated.  

Common Core can destroy our freedoms from within.  Please act--start by researching yourself and then ask your Pastors, Churches to share knowledge and may God help us all.
Mathew 18:6  But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in and cleave to me to stumble and sin-- who entices or hinders him in the right conduct or thought—it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Ezekiel 22:30 states: “And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before ME for the land, that I should not destroy it; But I Found NONE…
Hopefully you will help and stand in the gap...please share that others will too.

SBC 2013--Resolution To Fight Common State Standards With TRUTH To Set A Nation Free

The warning of a Mental Health Therapist that the teachings now in Common Core will raise a generation that is easily triggered (remember Arab Spring?) ought to make the Body of Christ, specially its Pastors, rise up to defend America's children.  Here is a Resolution asking the SBC to educate.  After all God's Word reminds us--

Hosea 4:6  My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. 

Here is the Resolution.  Please read, study, pray that in the 2013 SBC Convention (June 11-12) will vote to adopt it.  May God have mercy upon us and deliver us.

HOUSTON, TEXAS
RESOLUTION TITLE: “OUR CHILDREN” GODLY PARENTAL CONTROL vs UNITED NATIONS ‘NEW WORLD ORDER’…. WHAT WOULD GOD WANT??

STAND IN THE GAP

ARE YOU STANDING IN THE GAP???

 
Mathew 18:5-6 states: “ And whoever receives and welcomes one little child like this for MY sake and in MY name receives and welcomes ME.
Vs6: But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in and cleave to me to stumble and sin-- who entices or hinders him in the right conduct or thought—it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be sunk in the depth of the sea.
Ezekiel 22:30 states: “And I sought for a man among them who should build up the wall, and stand in the gap before ME for the land, that I should not destroy it; But I Found NONE…


Pastors,
Are you standing in the GAP with God for our children according to God’s charge in Matthew 18:5-6 OR are you the Ones HE is looking for in Ezekiel 22:30 ?????

Hosea 4: 1 “Hear the Word of the Lord oh children of Israel; for the Lord has a contention with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no faithfulness, kindness, pity and mercy, or Knowledge of God in the Land.

 
As in the days of Hosea, God has a contention with we, HIS believers, because we have lost our Faithfulness to God. We have allowed God to be removed from our lives, our schools, our towns, and Political Correctness and Compromise are ruling our churches; 501-C-3’S ARE THE NEW GOD….Our nation has turned it’s back on God… Our children are lost more and more to the world’s ways each day via technology, destruction of family and values and because we are “too busy” or feel we must compromise to get attendance. Whatever the reason, we have forgotten our charge in His word to put God first in our lives and our nation and to protect and teach the “little ones” our children… Are we truly STANDING IN THE GAP FOR GOD??

Our children are becoming victims of our political system through education…Our education system was never designed by our Founders to destroy our History but to enhance it.. The Old Deluders’ Satan Act was passed in Massachusetts in 1647. It was America’s First Education Act. Teachers were required to teach, not only reading and writing, but the Bible as well.. They wanted to avoid generations of poor and unintelligent people. They made sure that every citizen got enough education to read so that they could and would understand the laws and to be able to read the Bible.. Life in the 1600’s was based on religion. Their laws came from the Bible..

Our Founders equally maintained this focus as, once America was firmly established, our First Congress actually printed the 1st Bible in English to be used as a textbook in schools by teachers.. How far we have strayed..

The Ole’ Deluder Act established the first town school system in America, a system that recognized the importance of the Bible in a civilized society…Not run by the government but by the towns themselves..
How far have we strayed as a body of believers from the Word of God and our Founding? How far removed are our children?

Today our children have lost their foundations and are no longer rooted in God.. Instead they are rooted in the world because we have failed them.. WE are accountable to God for this.. The family unit has been undermined as we passively sit by and watch our children being led to slaughter by the world (the government education system)…”This dismal state of the modern church is not totally the parents fault, although they have their share, but fundamentally this is due to an Evolution concept that has produced anti-God teachers and ungodly curriculums which greatly influence the young minds and Pastors…Because parents are more engrossed in their secular careers today, children spend much more time being brainwashed by indulgent materialism, TV and other technology than in the company of their parents. So what kind of teaching are our children getting?; over 8 hours ungodly anti-God school, more than 8 hours ungodly violent TV, maybe a few minutes with the parents who have nothing to teach and then to bed; no wonder we have feral kids”… .. , Today we have Southern Baptist Minister’s and parents who are having to confront the issue of the Progressive take over of our schools and universities and now they are coming for children ages 3yrs., and Pre-K through 12…Sexual education through Common Core will begin at 5yrs of age.. They will be taught, not Godly values but worldly values like LGBT lifestyles and encouraged to participate and embrace these values.. God must be removed from our children in order for this agenda of the Globalists to be achieved…The Boys and Girl Scouts of America, previously God and value based organizations, have now succumbed to the pressures of worldly anti-God values of homosexuality forcing them to open their clubs to this LGBT agenda.. Boys and girls are being encouraged to experiment with these lifestyle choices to promote so called “equality” both in our schools and our organizations.. Today we put before you a list of Charges that we pray you will open your minds and hearts to and help us to reach parents and teachers, leaders, and Pastors around the country to the perils that face our children today..

Our government is pushing an educational agenda called Common Core Educational Standards which are standards set forth by government that all States must comply with if they are to receive any Title One grants for RTTT or NCLB acts… In Nov.’09 to Jan, ‘2010, 46 of our States Governors and Chief State School Officers sold out their children and schools to the copyrighted national standard for RTTT monies without knowledge or approval of their legislatures. I believe God says in HIS word (1Tim 6:10)...”For the love of money is the root of all evils for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness and pierced themselves through with many sorrows”… Well, money has corrupted on all levels as even the Catholic schools have now signed onto this program.. Will our Christian schools and homeschoolers be next as they are not exempt from this national takeover of education??? Will they stand in the Gap or will they compromise??.. That is the question we ask today… Remember the German Christian family, the Romeike’s, who sought and were granted asylum in the US to be able to practice their belief in the Lord and homeschool their children in the land of the free.. Unfortunately this current administration did not agree with the Federal court’s grant of asylum and filed suit to have them returned to Germany where the parents will be imprisoned and the children placed in Government care… This administration’s justification was that “parents have no right to homeschool their children” therefore, their premise for asylum was invalid.. After being granted asylum by the Federal Courts, The Romeike family lost their case and are currently under appeal.. Is this the America we want? A nation founded under God is now persecuting those very founding principles…

While the government wraps this Common Core into a “warm and fuzzy” “it will improve education” propaganda campaign, one has to but research Common Core to understand it comes not from God but Satan himself…

Common Core Educational Standards are part of a much larger picture which stems from the Sustainability movement that originated in the United Nations, and was brought to the US in 1993 by then President Clinton.. ” Utilizing the global Agenda 21/UNESCO language from the United Nations Agenda for the 21st Century Treaty, which was not ratified under George H.W. Bush, Clinton created, via Executive Order, the “Presidents Council on Sustainable Development” aka “Sustainable America”.. The goals of this program were established years ago by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization)....

To gain control over our children, The United Nations Global Governance Movement has attempted to get the United States to ratify a new treaty. Because the UNCRC (“United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child” ) adopted by UN General Assembly on Nov. 20, 1989 and ratified by all nations except the United States and Somalia ) was not ratified by the US, the UN created an alternate treaty, new name, same language… Under this deception, The UN and this Administration attempted once again to ratify an International treaty under the name of: “UN Convention on the Rights of Persons With Disabilities Act” and was promoted in the US Senate by this Administration in 2012 to be ratified.. It was defeated. Both of these treaties were designed to undermine Parental Rights and to turn parental rights over to the International Community with UNESCO in charge…

 
These treaties would have given control over the disabled and special needs children and all children to the United Nations… Is this what God intended for our children?

“And you Fathers, provoke not your children to wrath; but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.” (Eph 6:14)

“Be not deceived; Evil companionships corrupt good morals.” (1Co 15:33)

“Train up a child in the way he should go: and when his is old, he will not depart from it.: (Pro 22:6)

 
Nowhere in these scriptures does God tell us to turn our children over to the United Nations or the Federal Government. Why then are we allowing this to happen without Standing in the Gap for our children?

 
Below are quotes based on UNESCO and their goals for education.. This was done under Julian Huxley’s guidance (Julian Huxley prime mover of UNESCO from 1945. Huxley served as its first director. Huxley also served as the VP of Eugenics Society from 1937-1944…). These quotes are old but the men who wrote them were laying a foundation for how the world should evolve.. UNESCO has not wavered from these attitudes and principles today. In fact, the organization has refined its message and honed in on its purpose..

[Now is the time for the final push via the education system since they have successfully achieved the media and propaganda war…Enter Common Core Standard Curriculum (if one can call it a curriculum—brainwashing would be more appropriate). Look at our children today.. TV , Technology, Materialism and self interest have become their God.. Again, where are the Pastor’s and parents standing in the gap to protect our children from this evil that threatens the very foundations of our beliefs??]
To Continue: The below quotes reflect their attitudes toward education and mass media. Julian Huxley was “1962 Humanist of the Year, a member of the Communistic Colonial Bureau of the British Fabian Society.”

In 1948, Huxley Wrote:

 
“In its education program, [UNESCO] can stress the ultimate need for a world political unity and familiarize all peoples with the implications of the transfer of full sovereignty from separate nations to a World Organization…Political unification in some sort of World Government will be required…

 
“As we have seen earlier, the unifying of traditions in a single common pool of experience, awareness, and purpose is the necessary prerequisite for further major progress in human evolution. Accordingly, although political unification in some sort of world government will be required for the definitive attainment of this stage, unification in the things of the mind is not only necessary but can pave the way for other types of unifications.. it must also eventually include a unified common outlook and a common set of purposes.. This will be the latest part of the task of unifying the world mind…”—(-Julian Huxley, author of UNESCO: Its purpose and its philosophy, page 17)

“Taking the techniques of persuasion and information and true propaganda that we will have learnt to apply nationally in war, and deliberately bending them to the international tasks of peace, if necessary utilizing them, as Lenin envisaged, to “overcome the resistance of millions” to desirable change. Using drama to reveal reality and art as the method by which, in Sir Stephen Tallent’s words, “truth becomes impressive and a living principle of action,” and aiming to produce that concerted effort which, to quote Grierson, “needs a background of faith and a sense of destiny.” This must be a mass philosophy; a mass creed and it can never be achieved without the use of the media of mass communication. UNESCO, in the press of its detailed work, must never forget this enormous fact. (Julian Huxley, author, UNESCO: Its purpose and its philosophy, page 60)

“There are thus two tasks for the Mass Media division of UNESCO, the one general, the other special.. The special one is to enlist the press and the radio and the cinema to the fullest extent in the service of formal and adult education, of science and learning, of art and culture. The general one is to see that these agencies are used both to contribute to mutual comprehension between different nations and cultures, and also to promote the growth of a common outlook shared by all nations and cultures.”---(Julian Huxley, author UNESCO: It’s purpose and it philosophy, pg. 60)
“It may be hoped that in time anybody will be able to persuade anybody of anything if he can catch the patient young and is provided by the State with money and equipment.” (Humanist philosopher and UNESCO advisor, Bertrand Russell)

“….education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished… diet, injections and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible. Even if all are miserable, all will believe themselves happy, because the government will tell them that they are so.” (Humanist philosopher and UNESCO advisor Bertrand Russell quotes German philosopher and Marxist, Johann Fichte)

Teaching World Citizenship by Professor Walter J. Veith, amazingdiscoveries.com

 
One obstacle that world government proponents foresee is the patriotic education parents often give their children.

Nevertheless, it has become a priority in global education curriculum to guide children away from the teaching they receive in the home…

 
John Stormer explains that, under Huxley’s guidance the United Nations prepared a guidebook for teachers.. This guidebook reminds them the “destruction of a child’s love of country and patriotism is the fist step in educating that child for world citizenship”..

The report said on the opening page of Volume V, “In The Classroom With Children Under Thirteen Years of Age…before the child enters school his mind has already been profoundly marked and often injuriously, by earlier influences.. first gained, however dimly, in the home.”

On Page 9, the teacher is told: “The kindergarten or infant school has a significant part to play in the child’s education.. Not only can it correct many of the errors of home training but it an also prepare the child for membership, at about age seven, in a group of his own age and habits---the first of many such social identifications that he must achieve on his way to membership in the word society (emphasis added).”

 
Stormer explains that “the UNESCO study makes It plain that the errors in home training include parental encouragement of patriotism.. On page 58, the guidebook for teachers says: ‘As we have pointed out, it is frequently the family that infects the child with extreme nationalism. The school should therefore use the means described earlier to combat family attitudes (emphasis added).”

Stormer also tells us that the strategy for solving the “problem” of patriotism has already been decided:

UNESCO gives a specific suggestion in Volume V, page 11, on how this can be done: “In our view, history and geography should be taught at this age as universal history and geography… The study of history …raises problems of value which are better postponed until the pupil is freed from the nationalist prejudices which at present surround the teaching of history.”
_____________________________________________________________________________________

It is clear that the spiritual and political aims of the UN are being carried out through the push to global education…

Does any of this sound like God’s Word or is this the World’s way and we are being led, like sheep, to the slaughter.????? Will we STAND IN THE GAP and Restore God to HIS rightful Place in our lives, our churches, our homes and our country??? Pastors, you have a responsibility to feed God’s sheep.. it is time to stand and educate and activate from the PULPIT.. The IRS cannot take away your 501-c… they admitted as much when the 1600+ Pastors STOOD and called their bluff.. God tells us in HIS word.. “DO NOT FEAR”.. We must go boldly!

Unfortunately, we do not have until the next election cycle to overturn these educational mandates. Time is of the essence.. Even if we did, have our “elected leaders” not led us to the crossroads we find ourselves today? Have they been pillars of truth and virtue?? Hardly! Instead we find ourselves in an unholy democratic society with corrupt leadership that have sold their souls to power, greed and self interest at the expense of this nations governing principles, its citizens and its children. Our so-called leaders have abandoned our Constitution and the Godly principles of this nations founding, so, why would we look to them to solve a problem they created? The laissez-faire approach of our democratic society is even worse for the children have been left void of any righteous references, knowing not what is right and wrong in the Lord, and so the child will grow up following the whims of his heart and this World, which are always evil as the Lord attests in Gen 6:5 and 2Tim3:1-4.

We Must Not look to these representatives as honest, moral leaders but instead, We must become our own “representatives” and look to God as our source FIRST in ALL THINGS.. WE MUST BE THE ONES THAT STAND IN THAT GAP…

Now is the time to sound the alarm to all members of all churches, all ministers and missionaries who serve as watchman (Ezek 33:1-9). Through education, we must alert parents to the perils of the public schools and hopefully encourage them to remove their children from the public education system and encourage them to make alternative choices such as Christian Schools and private homeschooling associations who have not “sold out” and taken the “carrot of compromise—government monies” such as Sylvan learning Centers and Catholic schools.. We have grassroots Professionals in the Education field who are conducting seminars and webinars across the country. We are developing curriculums using these grassroots educational leaders to educate our children with Basic Math, English, The Constitution and re-introducing the Bible as originally intended..

FACTS TO KNOW: COMMON CORE WILL:

1. Create substantial identical Common Standards across all States—one size fits all education for children is a misguided attempt to create secular “equality”.. Not State Led as purported
2. Data Mining collection on children and families including health history, religious affiliations, political affiliations etc…(see: “Promoting Grit, Tenacity and Perseverance” –Dept. of Ed Report Feb/13—Pg. 32-44 Data Mining Techniques)
3. Data available to companies for development of textbooks and technology to produce a “global sustainable citizen”
4. Tenured teachers can be removed if deemed ineffective for two years after being evaluated by Master Teachers. Teachers will no longer teach, they will “facilitate” the learning of these standards set forth by the government.. Hence they will be referred to as “Facilitator’s”.. Facilitators of God or man? That is the question…
5. Federal Funding is tied to “testing” so States will be using “Facilitators” (more like “Enforcers”) to insure that children are taught to a test rather than actual learning. Once again the “carrot” of coercion.

In closing, we respectfully submit our Resolution in hopes that God will embolden you to stand with us and be resolute against any and all implementation of the Common Core Standards: No one is immune or will escape it’s control, not even Christian schools, private schools or homeschoolers.. all will be at the mercy of government with total loss of parental rights.. This is the perfect marriage between Big Government and Big Brother; only to benefit the elite at the expense of our nation and our children. There are alternatives and together we Can and MUST explore and implement these alternatives to Government education and bring control back to Parents and their Communities.. We do have options.. Let’s use them…one immediate action is to eliminate the choke hold McGraw Hill and Pearson text book publishers have over what information goes into or is removed from textbooks nationwide. They are working in unison with UNESCO so I’m sure you understand the urgency of this action, as these text publishers will serve Common Core up to our children. . Much information is available on Common Core that we are happy to furnish to you for your education and activation.

Let’s all do as God has called us, join arms in HIS army and STAND IN THE GAP!! We respectfully submit our requests below:

RESOLUTION: “OUR CHILDREN” GODLY PARENTAL CONTROL vs UNITED NATIONS ‘NEW WORLD ORDER’. WHAT WOULD GOD WANT??

 
WHEREAS, Federal law prohibits the federalizing of curriculum, this current administration funded the CCSS plan via the 2009 Stimulus Bill monies that funded RTTT (Race to the Top) grant competition via coercion of the States to either sign onto to CCSS or lose their grant monies; and

WHEREAS, Common Core State Standards are a set of achievement standards promoted by this government, the National Governors’ Assoc (NGA) and the Council of Chief School Officers (CCSSO) (NOT STATE LED as represented) as a means of forcing students into a “one size fits all” set of achievement goals that focus on competitive global workforce solutions, and global citizenry; and

WHEREAS, NGA and CCSSO receive millions of dollars from private organizations such as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to fund the development of CCSS, creating a process not subject to any congressional or legislative approval and the effects on children have never been tested; and

WHEREAS, Clinical Psychologists say that the “oppositional behavior” techniques of CC will create extreme emotional and behavioral problems for the children as they try to conform to this new global agenda. It is completely foreign to American standards and eliminates all Parental Rights. This agenda encourages Psychologists/Physchiatist in the use of DRUG management to control any child with a behavior issue due to CC without consent of parents; and

WHEREAS, The NGA and CCSSO in partnership with Corporations such as Microsoft, GE, AT&T Exxon Mobile, Wal-Mart and others, developed CCSS “assessments” creating new textbooks and technology and other teaching materials as the delivery system for CC that must be adopted by the States and which the States must pay for; and

WHEREAS, Each State will be responsible for 64% of the “upfront costs” of CCSS as only a small percentage of monies will come from Federal Government, which States can ill afford; and
WHEREAS, CCSS includes federal funding for testing and data mining and the ultimate sharing of massive amounts of information on each student, parents, families and teachers respectively with international organizations and corporations; and

WHEREAS, CCSS removes educational choice and competition in a “one size fits all” program. All schools must adhere to the Common Core “assessments” for all students to be able to advance in this new global, sustainable educational system and to higher educational pursuits; now, therefore, be it


RESOLVED, that CURE recognizes that National Standards, in whatever form, undermines State sovereignty and Parental Rights; and be it further

RESOLVED, that CURE recognizes that Common Core is an inappropriate intrusion to reorganize and control the way our children think, talk, walk and are educated with NO Parental Control.. Parents will be forced to except the new robotic form of existence. Our children are NOT guinea pigs, science projects and for the slow learners, the chance for the eugenicists to experiment and/or exterminate those who cannot keep up with the tasks (refer to UN quotes); and be it further

RESOLVED, that CURE rejects the collection of personal student data (Data Mining---this is being done now as Florida recently did retinal scans on children without any Parental notification-Parents were told “after the fact”.) for any non-educational purpose without the prior consent of an adult student or a child student’s parent and that is rejects the sharing of such personal data without the prior written consent of an adult student or a child student’s parent, with any person or entity other than schools or education agencies within the state; and be it further

RESOLVED, that CURE recognizes the need to defund CC at the Congressional level along with the Dept. of Education and to repeal the numerous federal regulations which interfere with State and local control of public schools and therefore CURE maintains the Common Core State Standards puts a “stranglehold” on academic freedom, personal academic achievement and competition; and be it further

RESOLVED, that CURE recognizes Common Core is an overreach of government to standardize and control the education of our children so they will conform to a “preconceived normal” set forth by a corrupt system of elites; and be it further

RESOLVED, We as CURE (Citizens for Responsible Education, a National Coalition Against Common Core) ask that the Southern Baptist Convention and all decision makers in the organization open their doors for us to educate and reach as many people as possible in as short time as possible…We thank you in advance for your genuine attention to this urgent matter. We are STANDING IN THE GAP and pray you will join us.

America Needs Heroes To Save Their Children From Common Core And It Begins With Parents

Why Are Heroes Needed to Save Children from Common Core State Standards?

America is called the "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave".  Why is that?  Could it be because in its very beginning those who came upon its shores were indeed very brave and they were seeking to live in the land that was free.  In William Bradford's Of Plymouth Plantation-their children was one of the main reasons many came to America. 

Chapter IV of Of Plymouth Plantation (reading this excerpt will make you want to read more of what they were dealing with--for such a time as this...)--"But that which was more lamentable, and of all sorrows most heavy to be borne, was that many of their children, by these occasions and the great licentiousness of youth in that country,5 and the manifold temptations of the place, were drawn away by evil examples into extravagant and dangerous courses, getting the reins off their necks and departing from their parents. Some became soldiers, others took upon them far voyages by sea, and others some worse courses tending to dissoluteness and the danger of their souls, to the great grief of their parents and dishonour of God. So that they saw their posterity would be in danger to degenerate and be corrupted."

They braved the unknown and sacrificed much for the love of their children.  Hundreds of years later we have benefitted greatly.  But alas today, most of America's parents are asleep to the dangers their children are facing.  But awaken they must so they can be the heroes so necessary for their very own precious children.  Professor Sandra Stotsky who was on the National Validation Committe of Common Core said it well--you don't keep giving poison to children no matter how much you've invested in buying the poison--that is her warning to Superintendents who use the excuse of how much money they have already invested in Common Core.  Also the other true expert on National Validation Committee was the Math Expert-Professor Jim Milgram and he said that psychologist was involved and indeed the outcomes show it (hear interviews with these two experts below).  In video of clinical psychologist is a very powerful warning of the kind of people that will be raised by these runaway standards.  The Common Core standards biggest violation (and there are many) is that it takes away parental authority.  So get informed parents because if you didn't know--you will never gain it back and who will suffer most?  The child in front of your very eyes.  So take time out of your very busy schedule-study and do your homework--most Superintendents,Principals and Legislators haven't and it's proving dangerous for America's children.

National Sexuality Standards?!

http://www.sdagainstcommoncore.com/2013/05/national-sexuality-education-standards.html

On page 9 under "Guiding Values and Principles"

"Instruction by qualified sexuality education teachers is essential for student achievement." 
Wouldn't that be the parents? Who decides who is "qualified"?    

"Students need opportunities to engage in cooperative and active (I underlined those two words) learning strategies, and sufficient time must be allocated for students to practice (I underlined that one too) skills relating to sexuality education."
What does that mean? Something like this? 

And I just have to highlight this principle:
Students need multiple opportunities and a variety of assessment strategies to determine their achievement of the sexuality education standards and performance.

President Obama’s new budget, submitted a few weeks ago, eliminates all funding for any abstinence education programs and directs the funding to US HHS to establish yet another new contraception program!

This is the Obama policy with sex education:  Eliminate abstinence programs and direct the money towards sexually explicit sex education for middle and high school students.

Millions of Obama administration dollars have been funneled into SC to promote shocking sex education materials and to support those that oppose abstinence-until-marriage programs.

I pray more people will study and support Martha Roby's Bill to defend State's Rights:

Professor Jim Milgram's interview

 Professor Sandra Stotsky

Please visit Citizens United for Responsible Education--CURENat and get very informed as Truth is your best weapon.  It will make you--your child's best defender which is exactly what the enemy does not want.  May God help you!

  Take the time to smell the stench of Common Core amidst the flowery speeches and resolve to make a difference and may it be as in Isaiah 54-

¹³ All your children will be taught by the Lord,
    and great will be their peace.
¹⁴ In righteousness you will be established:
Tyranny will be far from you;
    you will have nothing to fear.
Terror will be far removed;
    it will not come near you.
¹⁵ If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
    whoever attacks you will surrender to you.

¹⁶ “See, it is I who created the blacksmith
    who fans the coals into flame
    and forges a weapon fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer to wreak havoc;
¹⁷     no weapon forged against you will prevail,
    and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
    and this is their vindication from me,”
declares the Lord.

Remember:

Tell Senators No To An Immigration Reform That Will Undermine DOMA Since Sen. Leahy Tacked On LGBT Bi-national Amendment. A vote on that amendment is to take place the week of May 13.

"After six months of mulling over November's election results, many Republicans remain convinced that the party's only path to future victory is to improve the GOP's appeal to Hispanic voters," as stated by Byron York's article.

While immigration program does needs reform,  it must be done not in haste or panic or fear to the point that it allows an inroad to the destruction of the institution of marriage.  Study below and call your Senators as we must not compromise.

$6.3 TRILLION COST TO TAXPAYERS FOR AMNESTY & AMENDMENT FOR BI-NATIONAL LGBT COUPLES -- 5.7.13
5.7.13 – Two Action Steps:
Action Step #1 – Read the free Heritage Foundation report on the Gang of Eight’s comprehensive immigration reform (link posted below).
Action Step #2 – Contact your Congressmen on the Senate Judiciary Committee and ask them to vote against any amendment that would give illegal immigrant bi-national lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgender couples legal citizenship.  This amendment would be against the Defense of Marriage Act.
===========
ACTION STEP #1:
READ AND SHARE FREE COPY OF ROBERT RECTOR AND JASON RICHWINE’S HERITAGE FOUNDATION REPORT ON THE GANG OF EIGHT’S  IMMIGRATION REFORM:
Link to this report:  The Fiscal Cost of Unlawful Immigrants and Amnesty to the U.S. Taxpayer
Excerpts about this report:
“With amnesty, unlawful immigrants would become lawful—and become eligible for Obamacare benefits, Social Security, welfare, and Medicare.”
“The $6.3 trillion number is the cost to taxpayers of supporting unlawful immigrants under amnesty, including any taxes those immigrants would pay into the system versus the amount of government benefits and services they would take out.”
“…the average adult unlawful immigrant would receive $592,000 more in government benefits over the course of his remaining lifetime than he would pay in taxes.”
==========
ACTION STEP #2:
A huge push by the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) community to legalize bi-national LGBT couples as a part of the Gang of Eight’s immigration reform is being led by Republican Congressmen Charlie Dent/Richard Hanna and Senators Susan Collins (Republican) and Patrick Leahy (Democrat).  Leahy is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and he did tack on the LGBT bi-national amendment  May 7. A vote on that amendment is to take place the week of May 13.
5.2.13 – POLIGLOT – “A Queer Spin on Politics” –
http://www.metroweekly.com/mt/mt-search.cgi?blog_id=18&tag=Republican%20Party&limit=20
Excerpts from this article:
The Senate immigration bill unveiled by a bipartisan group of eights senators last month did not include provisions for same-sex couples, despite a fierce push from advocates and the backing of President Barack Obama. Under the Defense of Marriage Act, foreigners in relationships with Americans of the same-sex are denied various protections, including eligibility for green cards, because the federal government does not recognize such relationships. According to the Family Equality Council, there are more than 36,000 binational same-sex couples living in the United States today…
Nevertheless, supporters of an LGBT-inclusive immigration bill have said they will amend the legislation in the Senate Judiciary Committee as early as next week.
Advocates have said they have received assurances that Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.), the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, will tack on the Uniting American Families Act (UAFA) as an amendment to the 844-page immigration bill. UAFA would recognize immigrants in relationships with Americans of the same-sex and grant them various protections, including eligibility for visas.  A vote on the UAFA amendment is on the week of May 13.
