The ideological takeover of American universities followed two phases: (1) scientific naturalism from German-trained PhDs (1880-1930s), producing liberal Protestant theology and the social gospel; (2) neo-Marxist critical theory from Frankfurt School scholars who fled Hitler and embedded themselves in American institutions, producing CRT, gender theory, and the post-modern rejection of objective truth.

Gender ideology in nursing schools illustrates how post-modern "your truth" thinking penetrates every academic discipline — not just philosophy or social sciences. When a student is trained to say "it's their truth" about gender, she has also been trained to say "it's your truth" about the gospel, effectively dismantling the concept of objective truth that Christianity requires.
