Educators? Of What?

Malcolm Muggeridge once said that the modern man has "educated himself into imbecility." I think these "educators" prove his point:

Maryland public school students are free to thank anyone they want while learning about the 17th century celebration of Thanksgiving - as long as it's not God.

And that is how it should be, administrators say.

Young students across the state read stories about the Pilgrims and Native Americans, simulate Mayflower voyages, hold mock feasts and learn about the famous meal that temporarily allied two very different groups.

But what teachers don't mention when they describe the feast is that the Pilgrims not only thanked the Native Americans for their peaceful three-day indulgence, but repeatedly thanked God.

...School administrators statewide agree, saying religion never coincides with how they teach Thanksgiving to students.
