In 1942, C.S. Lewis issued a chilling warning: an obsession with "perfect equality" would eventually destroy human greatness.

In a world where no one is allowed to be better than anyone else, the best and brightest are cut down to size. Lewis predicted a future where:

-Education is leveled to mediocrity to avoid hurting feelings.
-The Middle Class is hollowed out, removing the primary champions of private excellence.
-"Avoiding trauma" becomes the excuse to stop pushing students to their full potential

Lewis saw that when the State takes over education, it becomes more of a nursery than an academic institution.

Is Lewis’s dystopia already here?

Cardinal Burke believes that “without a healthy sense of sin” and the recognition of the need for regular confession, cases of mental illness are increasing, as people believe they “can just go sailing along” in a direction of unrepented sin until they find themselves “in a terrible situation.” https://t.co/G3g1UCz0Gj @NCRegister @cardinalrlburke
