In seventh grade our history teacher came in on the first day of school, closed the door and proceeded to tell us he was required to teach us from this new book. He held it up, and then proceeded to tell us that their are numerous things in this book that are wrong, but I'm required to teach it to you anyway. He then mentioned a few, such as the United States being a republic instead of a democracy &c. Then said he was prohibited from answering any questions but recommended we spend some time in the library studying history, then got up opened the door and started teaching the book.
I thank God for that man, I wish he would have taken a stronger stand - but he planted a seed. I tremble for today's children that are subjected to such abuse.
