I got informed yesterday that the media tell the truth...
I was that gobsmacked that I didnt know what to say...
A lady that is in her late 60's informed me that she would believe the media before she would believe anyone who said the media was wrong...
I have been discussing this issue with a friend, our talk involved how the education system has gone from giving people the basics of how to question and learn to a point of conditioning them to do as there told and not question. My son gets into a lot of trouble at school by asking hard questions and wanting to know, if you told him the world is round, he asks how can you show me that, if you tell him that a computer application is the best available, he wants to see the competition...
The teachers cant accept that, they want him to be a puppet...
I think things have started to go backwards from the day when most of us where in school and teachers asked us questions and then discussed the answers and delved into the possibilities...
Sad, Sad earth...
