After all those wonderful lies about the Great Depression, it will be nice to get back to something more like reality in our rightwing Christian textbooks for the Christian school/homeschooling market.
Roosevelt&#039;s stab in the back led directly to Godless Communists crucifying the martyred Sen McCarthy during his Holy Crusade against traitors, Jews, Commies and <strike>General Marshall</strike>other traitors to be named at a future date, who are certainly not in the military because that would be a bridge too far.
Rightwingers very often have firm beliefs in things that are demonstrably false. The problem is people let that be a part of a valid debate, instead of showing it to be a symptom of their unending ignorance.
They&#039;ve got themselves so adrenalized with fear, paranoia, and Red Bull that every time the phone rings they dive behind the couch.
Yes, Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Karl Barth as well as many other theologians and preachers weren&#039;t able to halt the rise of Nazism but they made enough of an impact despite their &#039;spiritual blindness&#039; that they are still revered and studied today.
<i>And for one of our two texts, the 11th/12th-grade United States History for Christian Schools (Bob Jones University Press, 2001), that&rsquo;s pretty much the case &mdash; there is almost nothing in this textbook&rsquo;s coverage of WWII that would be out of place in a secular textbook.</i>
Bob Jones University may be an intellectual haven for bigots and rightwing ideologues, but it at least has *some* standards.
See &quot;Emptiness, Spiritual&quot;
So the Soviet socialists and the New Deal socialists helped defeat the German, Eyetalian and Japanese socialists. Got it.
And then after the war, rugged individualist Churchill was also defeated by socialists. With votes!
No True Nazi?
Well, it would explain why the Japanese were pissed off enough to attack Pearl in December.
That was sobering.
Convenient they leave out the motto stamped on the belt buckles of Wehrmact soldiers - &quot;Gott min uns&quot;
After all. The kiddos can&#039;t get confused over such little things like this, right?
&quot;Because many Germans believed the notion of evolution, they accepted Hitler&rsquo;s ideas.&quot;
It&#039;s a slippery slope from evolution to godless atheism, but wasn&#039;t Hitler a Catholic?

This game has lots of potential! What else can we conflate with Nazism?

The dude was painted into a corner.
