But the summary fails to mention by whom. The article thankfully does.
It is developed by Classic Learning Initiatives. But the company doesn't have its own wikipedia page, despite clearly having written this page. The only name listed is the "creator" of the CLT Jeremy Tate; who also doesn't have his own Wikipedia page.
That's a lot of anonymity for the company that:
Tate, the founder and CEO of CLT said the College Board has “censored the entire Christian-Catholic intellectual tradition” and other “thinkers in the history of Western thought.”.
Pecknord has previously described liberalism as a "religion" of "moral poverty" and called for "an all-embracing form of life coordinated and ordered to the love of God and neighbor"
They're hard-core Catholics trying to look generic Christian so they don't scare off the Evangelicals but also not so Christian they scare off the secular completely either.
Florida does it again.
There's a lot of scary Handmaid's Tale language just in those quotes. "Moral poverty," jfc.
