conspiracy theory?

[bullhead44]

A guy a work the other day mentioned this, and since then I have been thinking on it. I say its mainly bullsh. What do yall think?

His theory deals with the education system phasing out teaching cursive writing. He thinks the libs are eliminating teaching cursive writing because the constitution is written in cursive. In a few generations, very few people will be able to read cursive. If no one can read the original constitution, politicians will be able to not follow it.

this kind of got me to thinking about how many people use cursive on a daily basis. I never use it other than signing my name. I actually have to think about it when trying to use it.

highly possible, since the only way to destroy the U.S. is to kill the constitution

Well...that is a good one.

Here is another one. The education system is phasing out cursive so that when China takes over the US we can more quickly convert to Chinese handwriting.

Cursive is being eliminated due to the typed word....computers.

Don't over think it.

Interesting topic. I have to read cursive sometimes in old Deeds and Patents. Can't stand it either! Some people can't write!

[Stoof]

Pooey. Nobody uses it and everything happens on a computer. I learned it and can hardly write that way anymore. It's been twenty years since I last wrote in cursive.

[Maddox]

Have you ever seen the Constitution? The real Constitution is so faded its hard to read to begin with. Fact is, no one writes in cursive anymore. Everything is in print.

One of the foundational parts of a socialist takeover of the US is to control education, already done. That being said, this theory is a ways out there!

And I bet it’s been 20 years since your wife received a love note written in it. Try it, you might like the response

[curtintex]

LMAO.....Pretty sure the Constitution has been converted to a Word Doc about half a trillion times.

[duckmanep]

so the electronic versions of the Constitution are all going to disappear?

what other theories does this guy have, he sounds fun.

We know what color dinosaurs are and what they sound like calm down turbo

LMAO! I am going to plant this bug in the ear of my favorite tin foil hat wearer and see where it goes....

You may be on to something.

We have people that can read 3000-year-old hieroglyphs, I m sure there will be a few that can figure out cursive.
