What we’ve taught in our schools is bearing itself out on our streetsThe week’s news was dominated by the antisemitic protests taking place on college campuses across the nation. Columbia, Yale, Berkeley, Harvard. Over 120 American institutions have reported disruptions to the point that classes have been canceled and police have been called in to restore order.
What we teach in colleges will be practiced in our culture. Solomon was clear: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart.” The moral to this is that there is great power in ideas and that power can be wielded for either noble or nefarious ends. More specifically, I said: “This university is not a ‘safe place,’ but rather, a place to learn: to learn that life isn’t about you, but about others; and that the first step in saving the world is to repent of everything that’s wrong with you rather than blame others for everything that’s wrong with them. This is a place where you will quickly learn that you need to grow up. This is not a daycare. This is a university.
But lest we think there is no way out of this mess, there is an answer. It is found in returning to and teaching Truth with a capital T. It’s found in those moral laws that have been tested by time, defended by reason, validated by experience, and endowed to us by Revelation.
