    I am not sure on how to rate this; 5 stars for accuracy; or, a thumbs down for the application thereof. Ecclesiastical seminaries (government schools) possess in large part, individual sovereign progeny's hearts and minds. Implementation of Stockholm Syndrome techniques, such as sex education at too early ages, create a scenario where the victims (students) grow in their desire to please their abusers (government) throughout the rest of their lives. A theocratic socialism is taught to alienate all from other religions. Habits of the occupying statist theocracy infesting this land inspire rules (laws) that are absolutely antithetical to inalienable rights, liberty and the laws related thereto.
