Outrage

This makes me furious.

This is ghastly. If you are a parent with elementary schoolchildren, you will hit the roof. A teacher in Cumberland County, N.C. near Fort Bragg (NOTE: she is no longer in Asheville) was caught on tape by Finnish documentarians making a film about Barack Obama’s supporters. The teacher, Diantha Harris, uses the classroom as a propaganda vehicle to shove her politics down the children’s throats.

I haven’t watched the video. I can’t. It would raise feelings in me that I’m not prepared to deal with.

This is what can happen when you’re absolutely convinced that you’re morally right, and that your opponents are contemptible. Treating them (or their children) in vile ways not only becomes permissible, but becomes a positive moral good. Because you’re saving them from themselves, you see?

And yes, Christians do this too, all the time. (This teacher is probably a Christian, if it comes to that.)

That’s why Jesus spent so much time trying to drill into our heads how we ought to treat our enemies.
