Couple of Points:

1)   How many godless, intellectually dishonest, incompetent “scholars” running universities have we dragged through the mud on this board over the years?  If that is what is running the universities (as well as the Hollywood, the media, and even many seminaries), are you people going to come on this thread and deny that the public primary and secondary schools in this country aren’t following suit…as if the public education system is immune to trends in society?  Does it make sense that the rest of society is moving one direction and our public schools are staying basically constant?!  Of course not, the public schools are moving along with it.

1. Yes, it is in fact the case, and does make sense, that public schools and universities are run entirely differently and by entirely different sets of people, as anybody can plainly see. Unless you think that they're teaching me about the buildup-climax-denouement model in my college literature classes, or taught me about the objective correlative in high school.

2. I'd thank you not to insult the quality of instruction in our universities on anecdotal grounds.

It's possible, though it depends on what one defines as 'Christian values'.

Citation needed. I'm not denying the problematic nature of much contemporary Anglican theological instruction, but these are awfully specific numbers.

You're not wrong, but you're not remaining still. You're moving far afield from the historical, cultural, and intellectual tradition of proper credal Chalcedonian Christianity as well, just in a different direction. So of course you would perceive that motion (which I perceive too, because I'm moving in a third direction).
