In the second part of Neil Postman’s book, Amusing Ourselves to Death, the author examines the medium of education in order to exhibit how it has affected and fashioned modern public discourse.

In order to properly demonstrate the authors view and evidence on this subject of discourse, as well as my own, I will explore how television presents education as well as how exactly television has managed to

together in a united effort to stop God 's people from entering into their country. Instead their defiance of God 's will was met with utter devastation. No one could stand up to the power behind the Israelite army. Israel held tightly to the Laws of Moses doing everything commanded. Because of each man 's faithfulness a supernatural ability took over each fighting soldier giving them the ability to stand and defeat a thousand men.
