The starry-eyed StarTribune, a few days back, reported loftily on the class at a St. Paul high school that was tutoring students on how to be compassionate.
Teachers are educational bureaucrats. For functionaries to lecture children on compassion is like a bank robber admonishing the young never to rob or steal.
To become, survive and thrive as any kind of institutional bureaucrat, one must lose one soul, and conform utterly. The surrendering victims are so imbued with self-disgust and self-loathing that their only ambition is to break children, and turn them into class-loving, government-addicted, tyranny-embracing. These lusters after power only want to grow government.
They are not the persons to teach children compassion. Indeed this noble feeling should be properly taught at home.
To convert children into conforming, passive, mindless little robots is to inflame their already extant core evil nature.
Teach children to self-love, to individuate, and to love God and others, and from this strong, actual state of mental cheer will naturally spring repeated, rich doses of spontaneous compassion.
