PragerU What Are They Teaching The Children?

On Facebook a post came up that asked could you pass this student tests?

So I took the challenge but, the first thing that they asked was, name, address, email, phone number! Whoa no way were they going to get all that personal information out of me... so I lied.

Here are some of the questions that they asked...

Q2: How is a child’s biological sex typically identified?

A: Parental affirmation of child's preference

B: Personal feelings

C: Visual anatomical observations and Chromosomes ✓

D: Online registration

Q3: Which chromosomes pair determines biological sex in humans?

A: AA/BB

B: XX/XY ✓

C: RH/AB

D: XE/XQ

Q26: What was Abraham Lincoln's primary reason for waging the Civil War?

A: To preserve states rights

B: To abolish slavery

C: To preserve the union ✓

D: To end the union

Their answers are all BULL! The thing is... they are all wrong or half truths chromosomes only play a little part in determining sex.

Take question 2 for an example there are all types of proteins also help determine sex. Do you know that there are XY woman out there?

It is called Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS) is... well I will let the medical people at Cleveland Clinic tell you,

Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is a rare, inherited, sexual development disorder. People with AIS are genetically male, but don’t develop male external genitals because their bodies can’t respond to male sex hormones. AIS can cause problems during puberty, as well as infertility as an adult.

Think of it as a lock and key, the key is testosterone and the lock is what coverts a female fetus into a male fetus. there is testosterone but there are no receptors on the cells in the fetus/

Question 3 is wrong, flat out wrong. We have,

1. XXY – Klinefelter Syndrome
2. XO – Turner Syndrome
3. XYY – Jacobs Syndrome
4. XXX – Triple X Syndrome
5. XXYY – XXYY Syndrome

Those are only the top five! And remember this is the test that they are giving out of state teachers!

And then we have question 26; 

Okay, here is my take on why the Civil War happened. Slavery was no longer the elephant in the room... it was the room. I believe that the Fugitive Slave Act and the Compromise of 1850, were the matches that lead to the Civil War. Slavery was now in the North's face.

The South started jump up and down demanding states rights and return our slaves, and the North thumbed their nose them. The South took all their marble and left. And the North said no way, you can do that!
