Anti-theistic Education

So, I came across a poll from about 2 years ago that really struck me. A Barna Group poll done in 2009 shows that the Bible is being viewed as less and less sacred in the younger generations.

Why is this? I think there are multiple reasons:

The younger generation isn't being raised with a strong Biblical background. The public, and government institutions are pushing more and more to shove God out of the national picture, church attendance is down, and daily Bible readings have gone by the wayside.

Evolution is being taught in schools, but is creationism? Teachers aren't allowed to mention the name of Jesus let alone God. Public institutions are preaching anti-theism. Parents, how would you expect your children to have a solid Biblical foundation when they are a part of a daily anti theistic society?

I want to turn you to a documentary that just recent came out called IndoctriNation. The movie sheds some light on these public schools that are leaning more and more towards anti-theism. A strong Biblical background is very important for the next generation, and they aren't going to get that with our current public education system.
