<<When I was taught American history in
school, the course content was blatant propoganda; from reading our texts you would
come away thinking that no American leader had ever been anything less than faultless,
and that the every American policy was perfect in concept and execution. The
justification was that this was needed to promote patriotism. This is surely indoctrination;
do you also find it offensive? >>

You are correct about this! Our public schools have been teaching myths! It's an outrage IMO. But why trade one set of myths for another?
