Alex Newman – Death by Indoctrination: The Role of Education in Shaping Global Strategy

"The people who dreamed up this system, the people who implemented this system, the people who reformed this system, to turn it from what it was into what it is today, always had a plan. And that plan always was, from the very beginning, to undermine the Christian faith, to undermine the family, to undermine biblical principles, like private property, like the free enterprise system, like the nuclear family, like the purpose of government." - Alex Newman
