"I think it's fairly obvious why I was married. As strange as it may sound, I am a very moral woman. I was taught by my parents that if you fall in love, if you want to have a love affair, you get married. I guess I'm very old-fashioned.? Elizabeth Taylor after seven marriages, five divorces, in the San Francisco Chronicle

All across this country, the undermining and destruction of the values that children were taught at home is going on in public schools. One of the first things a family tries to teach its children is the difference between right and wrong. One of the first things our schools try to destroy is that distinction.

The up-to-date way to carry on the destruction of traditional values is to claim to be solving some social problem like drugs, AIDS or teen-age pregnancy. Only those few people who have the time to research what is actually being done in 'drug education,? 'sex education? or 'death education? courses know what an utter fraud these labels are.

For those are courses about how right and wrong are outmoded notions, about how your parents? ideas are no guide for you, and about how each person must start from scratch to develop his or her own way of behaving.
