It is right and proper and important.

I thoroughly enjoyed my break-out sessions at GHEA. Both audiences were engaged, interested, and interesting.

The point of my session was that Homeschooling families should not send their students to college (or into the world) without a psychology inoculation. Much, most, or all (pick one) of modern psychological theories are grounded in worldview assumptions that are inconsistent (at best) with a Christian worldview. Don’t let the kids’ first exposure to those assumptions happen in Psych 101 at State U. Remember Milgram and Asch.

But by distinguishing modern psychology’s worldview assumptions from science, Christian students can engage in the scientific study of the mind. It is right and proper and important.
