Professor Key said. “In fundamentalism, you have all the truths. In education, you’re searching for truths.’’

Professor Key mustn't be a student of logic, I suspect. If education is 'searching for truths', one might hope to assume they intend to find these truths they are searching for, right? If I search for my lost keys, I expect to find them. Don't you? If you pay to send your kids to college, you hope they find some truth, right? Don't bother sending your kids or your money to any institution Professor Key sits over. He's not intersted in finding truth, he merely wants to wander about endlessly, in a fruitless search with no expectation of ever finding anything.

Here, let's change Professor Key's statement a bit and see if it makes any sense...

Professor Key said. “In fundamentalism, you have all the car keys. In education, you’re searching for the car keys.’’

Which sounds better to you, fundamentalism or Professor Keys' "education" ?

If he is a student of logic, he just committed a modus tollens error.
