The Educated Man is the Deluded Man

I'll ask you a question. With a country like the U.S. that has mandatory education...do you really see it benefiting us? 

I'm not saying education is bad, but how do you educate? Do you promote creativity and divergent thinking? Or do you tell people how to think? One is true education, the other is brainwashing. Obviously we should educate ourselves because without a map of reality we will be lost. But we need to foster and push people toward their natural strengths and stop trying to shoe horn people into a one fits all. People shouldn't be in their 20's still not sure what they want to do. We need to have a system in place that by the time they are 18 they have sufficiently experimented with enough broad forays to know which path they want to pursue.

So school should be a life purpose system not a system of memorization of most material you will never use. I can honestly say as an adult I have learned more though self-education than I have ever learned from formal education. 

There are so many flaws in the United States Education system I can write a book, and regularly update it with yearly editions.

So when I say educated...I'm not talking about self-education I'm talking about what passes as Education in these systems we call public education.

People love complaining about how the population is dumb...its because the environment you created makes them dumb and keeps them dumb. Consistent results are NEVER accident, they are consistent because it is designed to be that way. Nothing is consistently an accident.

OK.

The Montessori method seems to be a good option for that.

So you mean the non-deluded man is an uneducated man?
