A major supply line to Darwinism just suffered a major reversal - college bubble is finally bursting. Also, the infrastructure of Darwinism, atheism, agnosticism and liberalism is crumbling

In our article College enrollment shows signs of slowing which means less post high school evolutionary indoctrination. Also, the ever shrinking role of tenured evolutionist professors and evolutionary biologists , we explained how liberal academia was a major ideological supply line to Darwinism that was showing signs of weakness.

On May 11, 2013, Business Insider published an article entitled The College Bubble is finally bursting

Lastly, you can see via the article A New Theory of Secularization  that the infrastructure of Darwinism provided by secularism/liberalism is crumbling:
...if you read the financial pages, it looks as if the welfare states of the West cannot be sustained forever; just as a demographic matter there are too few taxpayers to go around.

Over in Europe where the birthrate’s been lower than ours for awhile now, you’re really starting to see the effects of this. So to play futurist, what will happen down the road if these welfare states prove to be incapable of doing what they’re doing now, namely providing cradle to grave help for the fractured family?

That I think is the biggest question facing us and on one reading of the facts, which I think is probably the most accurate, the cataclysm of the imploding welfare states will itself bring about a family and religious revival because in times of adversity, people turn to what’s organically connected to that — and they turn to their families, they turn to their churches. We saw this after 911 when people who had not set foot in a church or synagogue in many years were suddenly doing it again.
To better see the relevance of the effect of socialism on secularization and the effect of an economic turmoil on Europe please see the articles below.

And of course, other infrastructure of Darwinism is crumbling too such as declining newspaper readership, upcoming funding problems of public schools which the agnostic Bill Gates has been talking about, etc. etc. . Please see:  Crumbling Darwinist infrastructure. Creationism is getting stronger.

Economics and atheism/agnosticism/Christianity/evangelicalism/creationism

Does atheism thrive on economic prosperity? Does religion prosper when people are desperate and ignorant?

Social unrest in Europe altering its religious landscape

The Eurozone crisis is not over. European socialism, atheism and Darwinism are in for a tough slog 

Why a literal reading of Genesis is surging in the world

Add 20 years of potential severe economic hardship to the many nails which are being pounded into the coffins of atheism and Darwinism.

College enrollment shows signs of slowing which means less post high school evolutionary indoctrination. Also, the ever shrinking role of tenured evolutionist professors and evolutionary biologists

A graph showing college enrollment in the United States and given the Eurocrisis and low performing European colleges and universities, it would not surprise me if Europe had a similar situation occurring.


The Wall Street Journal reported on April 18, 2013 that college enrollment has been facing a depressed market in the United States: Vital signs report: Depressed College Enrollment

A 2012 report indicates that "higher-education officials are fretting about ominous signs that overall college enrollment is starting to drop."  

Universities and colleges are a major source of additional evolutionary indoctrination and the likelihood of someone becoming a Darwinist goes up with post high school education. See: Evolutionary belief and education

An American study found that forty-five percent of students achieved no significant improvement in their critical thinking, reasoning or writing skills during their first two years of college. After four years, 36 percent displayed no significant increases in these so-called "higher order" thinking skills. Students, particularly those who made poor college major choices, are angry that college does not adequately prepare them for the world outside of college and leaves them with a significant amount of debt.

And there is plenty of bad news coming in when it comes to the issue of college/university Darwinist indoctrination as you will soon see.

Trouble for college professors and evolutionary biologists

It  is getting harder and harder to make a living as a evolutionary biology professor! 

Also, remember these articles:

Pop goes the Darwinism higher education indoctrination bubble evolutionist weasels!



An American study found that forty-five percent of students achieved no significant improvement in their critical thinking, reasoning or writing skills during the first two years of college. After four years, 36 percent displayed no significant increases in these so-called "higher order" thinking skills.

In 2011, there were several reports that a higher education bubble would burst: Higher education bublle- The Economist  and Forbes - Higher education bubble and Higher education bubble will burst - U.S. News and World Report.

The bubble may burst in 2013-2014.  Amidst high unemployment for recent college graduates, The Daily Caller just reported: Moody’s downgrades higher ed financial forecast

The Mackinac Center for Public Policy declared on January 14, 2013:
Some of the same forces pushing this revolution are already impacting university bottom lines and "pricing power," according to a new Moody's study reported by The Wall Street Journal:

For the (current) fiscal year, 18% of 165 private universities and 15% of 127 public universities project a decline in net tuition revenue… Nearly half of the schools surveyed by Moody's reported enrollment declines this fall, though overall median enrollment remained relatively flat from the previous year… Moody's also attributed the enrollment decline at some public universities to a ‘heightened scrutiny of the value of higher education’ after years of tuition increases and stagnating family income.

While elite institutions like the University of Michigan are in a better position to navigate the transition, schools like Central Michigan University, Western Michigan University, Ferris State University and the rest of Michigan’s smaller state universities may be in deep trouble. Their massive overhangs of debt and underfunded employee pension promises are all but certain to bite taxpayers here as students and families increasingly discover alternative ways to acquire both learning and marketable credentials at a fraction of the cost of a residential college.
 With a large amount of students having trouble paying back their college debt, it is obvious the present system is not sustainable. See: Why the Student Loan Situation Is Worse Than We Thought

Furthermore, more cost effective and practical online education will further bite into the market share of brick and mortar universities: Study: Online Learning Outcomes Similar to Classroom Results

Higher education and the promulgation of Darwinism

Higher education evolutionist indoctrination plays a key role in the promulgation of Darwinism. So this could have a significant effect on Darwinism.

In 2009, the Digital Journal reported:
 Among those with high school or less, 21% believe in evolution, while 41% of those with some college education believe in evolution. This number climbs to 53% among college graduates and to 74% for postgraduates.

Disbelief in evolution exhibits more or less the same trend, in reverse. 27% of those with high school or less do not believe in evolution. Of those with some college education, 29% do not believe in evolution while this number is 22% in college graduates. Only 11% of the respondents with a postgraduate degree do not believe in evolution.
Also, in 2012 the Daily Reporter published a story entitled:  found that:  Study: academia really does discriminate against conservatives

I do believe there are worthwhile college programs such as programs which provide their graduates such as  training in the medical professions, engineering, computer science, etc.  However, there are a worthless programs in college such as LGBT studies, evolutionary biology, etc.   Colleges and universities are going to have to pay the price soon for their promotion of a lot of useless ideology such as Darwinism.
