Not to beat the usual drum, but the progressive era began in the 1880's, with it's most prominent period being the 1920s and 1930s ( that is, ...until now). So the agenda in academia is not new. They have been at the task of marginalizing faith for decades. The University has been the chosen stage for the Left for decades. The subject does not matter...theology, calculus, Literature, etc.. It is a stage for advocacy of all things progressive. It has intensified in the past 30 years. Schools were seen in the 60s as the greatest means to promote the dumbing down of the masses, which is required to mold serfs.

I think Theology may be the only subject in academia that is taught by those with disdain, or least atheist leanings. Our very own enbar, a Professor in the field of Religion, has revealed that he is not a believer. Would someone who does not believe evolution is valid be permitted to teach classes on evolution. We could ask this question subject after subject.

Conservatives, Libertarians, or those of faith, could mount a campaign similar to the one progressives, but which supports individual sovereignty over progressivism, but I don't think that is necessary.
I think people are inclined to logic naturally. I believe people are inclined to reason naturally. They just need to be educated. I am not one who believes it is possible to bring the entire world in line with a specific mindset, ideology, faith, or anything.
In many, if not most cases, it is easy to point out the errors in reasoning, like I did in my first comment. I believe more should do so.

Frederich Nietzche said: "there are no facts, only interpretations." He is considered a great philosopher, but this quote is the quote of someone not quite up to the task of greatness. It is obviously absurd because if there are no facts, then what makes his assertion factual?
But seeking conviction is pretty much futile. That is why persuasion is secondary in my comments. Those with eyes to see, will see. Some will never see. I just speak the truth for the truth's sake, not so much for any agenda.
Even the person trapped in their own subjective, self delusion would bet that those disagreeing with them are OBJECTIVELY wrong. So, they don't disregard reason and objectivity. They just avoid it because they do not like where it might lead them.
It is called "the good fight" for a reason.
