Andrew Pudewa on schools

“Many times, the habit of asking questions is gradually trained out of people. Very often the schools will do this, not necessarily intentionally, but think about school. For a lot of people, it kind of goes like this: You go there and they give you information, even before you ask for it. Then, you massage it around a little bit—with little kids that’s called games, with older people it’s called homework. Then, you go back to the school and they ask you questions. If you give the right questions to their answers, you win the game. If you give the wrong answers, you lose the game. If you refuse to answer, they kick you out.”
