Riddle Me This: How Do We Teach? How Do We Learn?


Society has quite a dilemma. How do we teach those who have been trained not to learn by words, speaking, conversation, observation, and self-reflection.

When members of society and generations are purposely “dumbed down,” a non-thinking, non-responsive to intellectual dialogue type of society and generation is created. This creates a situation where people can only “learn the hard way”; and how many people survive that? The few who do survive are definitely not left unscathed.

In addition to this, a great deterioration of compassion, reason, and honor accompanies any “dumbing down process. In this type of society, how is one to teach and learn?...Pray.
