James Walker - The New Age in Our Schools: The Three R's
This tape was produced by a group called the Watchman Fellowship which is "an independent and apologetics ministry focusing on new religious movements, cults, the occult and the New Age." The president of this organization is James Walker who is the lecturer on this tape. The Watchman Fellowship believes what is really the competition in the area of beliefs (those new religious movements, cults, the occult and the New Age) is dangerous to mankind. One of the specialties of this organization is knowing how to "witness" to members of cults and new religions or how to convince members of cults and new religions that their beliefs of Christianity are better.
I'm sure the Watchman Fellowship's heart is in the right place. After all, they're trying to protect us from those strange belief systems of other humans. Assumably, we all should not only believe but accept that what the Watchman Fellowship believes is true. The Watchman Fellowship is watching out for us, but who is watching the Watchman Fellowship? Sorry, couldn't resist.
On this tape, Walker claims that the New Age movement has infiltrated the public schools to attempt to teach/brainwash the children "the three R's" which are not reading, writing and arithmetic. They are relaxation, relativism and reality manipulation. Speaking from personal experience, I have never encountered anything to do with the New Age during all of my 12 years in public school. Maybe back then these New Age dudes with their ideas of relaxation, relativism and reality manipulation were lurking outside of the school walls with the drug dealers waiting to corrupt the innocent and naive young people such as myself.
One of the highlights of this lecture is where Walker plays a tape allegedly of a New Age spirit guide working over a third grade class. The tape is supposedly recorded by a student. That particular tape sounds enticing enough that I would like to get a copy myself. I want to know more about the white rabbit with long ears and pink eyes. This part starts at about the 28:20 mark on side 1.
Notes: Someone named Rick Branch is credited as compiling the material on this tape, but since Walker is the only one doing the lecture and there's no more information available about Rick Branch, only James Walker is credited here.
There are clicks throughout the files. That is because the condition of the tape itself is not very good. Also, side 2 the sound quality is lower. The listener will have to turn up the volume when listening to side 2.
