During CNN’s The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper, one supporter of this movement is asked whether dismantling the Department of Education — and ultimately getting rid of public schools — is what they want.
His answer: Yes.
Then the segment points to the expansion of so-called “God-centered schools” as the alternative.
This is why SEA keeps saying these fights are connected.
It is not just about one bill.
Not just LifeWise.
Not just chaplain bills.
Not just Ten Commandments laws.
Not just “success sequence” bills.
Not just the Charlie Kirk Act.
It is a larger effort to weaken public education and replace it with an openly Christian nationalist vision of schooling.
For years, people were told they were overreacting.
Now it is being said on national television.
Shape the classrooms and you shape the country.
That is the strategy.
SEA exists because public schools are supposed to belong to all of us — not to one religious movement, one ideology, or one political project.
What people are saying:
- Facebook User: No one particular religion should have control over all. No religion should be involved in public schools.
- Secular Education Association: Facebook User we couldn’t agree more. Keeping our public schools neutral protects everyone and our religious freedom.
- Facebook User: Fundamentalists believe they have the only truth, and are compelled to convert everyone else, no matter what.
- Secular Education Association: Facebook User absolutely correct, which is exactly why they need to be kept far away from politics and legislation.
- Facebook User: 💯
- Facebook User: I missed it and I can only listen to this on the podcast and not watch it
- Facebook User: Anderson Cooper has never told the complete story.
- Facebook User: There is no God it’s a made up fake belief that’s used to paper train people
- Facebook User: BOLOGNA
