Some very powerful people believe that knowledge is America’s most valuable resource.  For this reason, they have worked diligently during the last 150 years to limit and thereby control knowledge – all knowledge, both academic and biblical.  This monopoly on knowledge has given these elitists a form a mind control over millions of Americans.  With deconstructionism as its theme, Legally STUPiD develops into an extremely controversial book.  After first identifying and discussing the seven modern education philosophies & theories and their subsequent teaching strategies [The Seven Deadly Sins of Public Education – a.k.a., Different but Equal] most responsible for millions of functionally illiterate high school students and graduates, Murray connects government schools’ dumbed-down textbooks, curriculum and teaching strategies to the Principles of Newspeak from George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four, along with some interesting comparisons from Animal Farm.  Johnny doesn’t have to read anymore.  He has Big Brother’s legal permission to remain ignorant, which, being dumb on purpose is stupid.  But even if Johnny wanted to read, to write, to develop his verbal skills and thereby his critical thinking skills, he’d find knowledge is being rationed by the State, with the “windfall apples” going only to those Big Brother can trust with such knowledge. 

“Many Christian parents are concerned about drug use, violence and moral depravity in public schools, but most Christian parents still believe their children will get a better academic education in a public school than in a Christian school or by home schooling their own children.   Legally STUPiD speaks to those parents, explaining how and why the academic problems in public schools are even worse than the moral issues…. As he [promised] in a Fayetteville[NC] Observer article in June 2005, RC Murray has now documented everything he ‘learned in today’s [public school] classroom and about today’s [public school] classroom.’ This book strongly promotes Christian education [i.e., a traditional Christian school or home school].”

The Writer’s Edge

“Legally STUPiD is not only for Baptists or Christians in general, but all Americans should read this book to find out what’s happening in this country today. Every American should be aware that there are people in high places attempting to keep their children from learning.”

James R. Beller, author of  America in Crimson Red  and  The Coming Destruction of the Baptist People
