Start 'Em Out Early

     A blogging friend of a friend recently published a post on her blog, a site which I frequent. What she wrote about was quite disturbing, and I thought the subject warranted another post.

       Apparently, multiple videos are being posted on the web of a bunch of cute elementary-age kids singing, shall we say, worship songs to- Obama. Yes, that's right, a whole chorus ebulliently singing lyrics about peace, unity, tolerance, and what a great leader Obama will be. The song sounds like a simple chorus melody- perhaps the kind of music style that some kids are taught to sing in church. It's awful. But it soon gets worse:

"YES, YES, WE CAN, CAN, YES, YES, WE CAN, CAN, YES, YES..."

       At this point in the sickening song, the children seem to be shouting a rallying call- something that might be expected from kids parroting communist or fascist propaganda.

Here's the video. Don't enjoy:

Now watch this one:

Blogger Kim Priestap writes on WizBang blog: 

     "These kids are already being taught to worship Obama as if he were some kind of god. That's what kids in North Korea, Cuba, Saddam Hussein's old Iraq, and other totalitarian regimes were taught to do as well. The purpose is if they grow up seeing their leaders as god-like they're less likely to rise up against them."

    Just the other day we received a Voice of the Martyrs newsletter, which featured a special report on North Korean Christians. When telling of the idolatry that all North Koreans are forced to participate in, reporter P. Todd Nettleton writes: 

     

    "North Korean children are taught to sing worship songs found in a book of 600 'hymns' that give praise Kim Il Sung and his son Kim Jong Il, the nation's current leader."

     Should we be encouraging the same thing?
     This is where evil rulers, and people in power, are smart. Indoctrinate the children, and they will stand up for you and your evil when they are older. They will love you, unless their hearts are mercifully changed. If only more parents would love God and "indoctrinate" their children with the knowledge and love of Christ, instead of blind worship of wicked rulers. That would be "change" worth being excited about.
