Oh, Harvard, You Fostered Founders of Our Union and a Regiment that Bled to Preserve It — Where Art Thou?

<![CDATA[“After God had carried us safe to New England and we had builded our houses, provided necessaries for our livelihood, reared convenient places for God’s worship, and settled the civil government: One of the next things we longed for and looked after was to advance learning, and perpetuate it to posterity, dreading to leave an illiterate ministry to the churches, when our present minist

AI-Expanded SummaryOriginal reporting by PJ Media

America's oldest university, once the bedrock of founding principles and a beacon of truth, has become a radical echo chamber, betraying its hallowed past!

FROM PIETY TO POLITICAL POISON

Harvard, birthed from Puritan devotion to God and learning, was intended to combat Satan's ignorance. Its founders sought to raise up ministers and leaders steeped in truth. Yet, today, this sacred mission is savagely twisted.

Men like John Adams, John Hancock, and the revolutionary Dr. Joseph Warren walked Harvard's grounds, forging the very sinews of our nation. Even George Washington took command of the Continental Army near its hallowed halls. Now, a dark shadow hangs over Cambridge.

LEGION OF THE DAMNED

The "Harvard Regiment," the valiant 20th Massachusetts, comprised of elite Harvard men, bore the brunt of the Civil War's fury. They fought with unmatched valor from Ball's Bluff to Appomattox, enduring horrific casualties for the Union's survival.

Their bravery, etched in blood and sacrifice, stands in stark contrast to the moral rot that has infected their alma mater. The spirit of those patriots seems utterly lost amidst the modern campus chaos.

WHERE IS THE VERITAS?

Harvard's current embrace of "diversity" is a hollow facade, a shallow imitation of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream. True diversity of thought is extinct, replaced by a suffocating orthodoxy where conservative voices are silenced, mirroring past discrimination.

Even esteemed alumni like Professor Harvey Mansfield warn of Harvard's alarming inability to distinguish between legitimate dissent and the violent rhetoric of those who glorify Hamas. The pursuit of truth, Veritas, has been abandoned for ideological appeasement.

LOST SOULS AND SHATTERED RIGHTS

The ostracization of Alan Dershowitz, a brilliant legal mind, for upholding the fundamental right to counsel—even for those accused of heinous acts—reveals a terrifying disregard for justice. This is not the America our Founders envisioned, nor the one for which brave men bled.

Harvard once championed the principles that secure liberty for all. Now, it seems to have forgotten its roots, embracing a radicalism that threatens the very foundations of the nation it helped to build.

FAITH LENS

We are called to be vigilant against the wiles of the enemy, who seeks to deceive and tear down what is righteous. When institutions once dedicated to God's truth fall prey to worldly ideologies, we must pray for their repentance and return to foundational principles, remembering that even in darkness, God's light can prevail.
