The Soon Coming Judgment Of God Upon America and How To Escape It 101
In 1887 the National Education Association (NEA) was founded. The Association was
made possible by donations from the Carnegie and Rockefeller foundations. As will be discussed
in later chapters, various Carnegie and Rockefeller foundations have financed communism and
socialism. This was first discovered and documented by a 1953 Congressional investigation
headed by Congressman Carroll Reece. Among other things, the Congressional investigation
determined that large American foundations were determined to get control over the content of
American education. They were actively promoting communism and socialism to the public and
to schoolchildren through textbooks. Further, the investigation concluded that the Rockefeller,
Carnegie and Ford foundations had used their grant-making power to take over American
education and force our colleges and universities to abandon their religious beliefs and moral
standards.

John Dewey is known as “The Father of American Education.” Dewey began his own
education at Columbia University in 1904. In 1933 Dewey co-authored the Humanist Manifesto.
The book called for a synthesizing of all religions and “a socialized and cooperative economic
order.” Essentially, they were calling for a one-world government or New World order.
Co-
author C. F. Potter said in 1930: “Education is thus a most powerful ally of humanism, and every
American public school is a school of humanism. What can the theistic Sunday schools, meeting
for an hour once a week, teaching only a fraction of the children, do to stem the tide of a five-day
program of humanistic teaching?”
189
Humanism is closely related to atheism. It is a
misconception that the communist leaders were true atheist; they were Satanists. Atheism, as
they determined, was the most expedient way to destroy Christianity. It is much easier to get
atheists to worship Lucifer than Christians!
Dewey agreed with Potters thinking and sought to dumb down the education system and
infuse Marxist and Darwinian ideals into the educational system of America. He was backed by
American foundations principally the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations.

“Dewey
maintained that education was its own reward. He said, 'Education is a social process,' and he
insisted that 'education is not a preparation for life; education is life itself.' In short, he rejected
the idea of preparing young men and women for careers in the real world. His aim was to
socialize them and transform them into creatures of the state.”
191
Dewey was a pragmatist; and
therefore rejected biblical laws and morals. According to the humanistic philosophy of
pragmatism, learning comes through doing and truth is to be determined by trial and error. “This
is the perspective that values physical and emotional experience over facts and practical
knowledge. It is a type of learning that leads inevitably to denial of the importance of history and
tradition. It rejects existing culture and moral values in favor of 'diversity' and 'tolerance.'”
192
Dewey's influence is very evident today. We can see it in the philosophy, “if it feels good do it”
and in the now well accepted teaching that “truth is relative” or “their is no absolute truth.”
Within a year of the publishing of Dewey's Humanist Manifesto, “the NEA had adopted
John Dewey's philosophy of humanism, socialism, and globalism, and incorporates it into the
classroom.” While Dewey's philosophies were being adopted here, he managed to slip away to
Russia for a time to help organize the Marxist educational system there.
193
This Marxist
educational system would later return to America.
