Of course, the Bible is viewed by the feminist revolutionaries as perhaps
the most "sexist" book of all. Professor Bloom's analysis should make us
realize that the impact of feminism upon education and society as a whole is
here to stay--E.R.A. or no E.R.A. !
Educated men, afraid of appearing to
"discriminate," are supinely conceding the victory to the feminist cause.
This world's institutions of higher learning, cut off from God, could never
be relied upon to dispense God
1
s Truth. That we realize. Author Bloom
admits as much when he states that "the meaning of life is unclear, but that
is why we must spend our lives clarifying it rather than letting it go. The
university's function is to remind students of the importance and urgency
of the question and give them the means to pursue it." But because of the
inroads of nihilism, egalitarianism and now feminism, the original characĀ­
ter-shaping function of the university has gone by the boards. Education
in what one might call "worldly righteous" character--high moral standing,
patriotism, etc.--is no longer relevant. "The university," Professor Bloom
states, "has no vision, no view of what a human being must know in order to
be considered educated."
Thanks be to God that He has used Mr. Armstrong to put Ambassador College
back on the track, rescuing it from the blackened, meral abyss of the
educational system in the "enlightened" Western world.
