| Summary | "Public School Education" by Michael Müller is a critical examination of the American public school system written in the late 19th century. The work presents a strong argument against the system, examining its implications on society and morality, particularly from a Christian perspective. The author expresses deep concern about the moral decay he perceives in society, which he attributes to the secular nature of public education and its failure to incorporate religious teachings. The opening of the work sets a dramatic tone, as Müller passionately articulates his love for America, juxtaposed with his disillusionment over the state of public morals and the education system. He paints a bleak picture of the consequences of a godless education, suggesting that it breeds a generation devoid of religious principles, leading to a host of societal ills. Müller argues that the foundational purpose of education should be to cultivate both moral and intellectual virtues, positing that the neglect of religious education contributes to the larger crisis of integrity and honor in the nation. His discourse implies a call to action for citizens to engage in discussions about education that align with their moral values, making it clear that the subsequent chapters will delve deeper into the various dimensions of this pressing issue.
