I feel like ALL of our problems would be solved within a span of 20-30 years if we simply had free but mandatory Intro to Logic and Critical Thinking classes for every American. And maybe you have to take a refresher (booster) class every 10 years. I’m certainly ready for mine.
The CRT version of this class won’t help...
Most critical thinking is actually think like the instructor.
I’m still pissed at your mom, Sean.
Sounds more reasonable than the lyrics from his dad’s song “Imagine.”
All I can tell you is “brother you’ll have to wait.”
Yes, ‘Imagine’ does not hold up well to logic...
I can Imagine what kind of critical thinking they will teach.
The apple probably does not fall far from the tree.
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today... Aha-ah...
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace... You...
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world... You...
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one
That would lead to WAY too many of the Dem’s sheep leaving the plantation, Sean.
They control the schools and won’t allow it to happen.
I agree, my kids took a couple of years of logic and critical thinking classes at the high school level and I am impressed with how they work out problems or issues.
If it’s good it doesn’t have to be mandatory...only available.
Anything Lennon does to make it more available, I’ll applaud.
Explain the aspects of a paycheck and the various "deductions".
Explain how social security works in relation to how investing works.
The poor lad is a heroin baby from what I have read...
“Living is Easy with Eyes Closed.”
― John Lennon
Well that certainly sinks the love if we apply critical thinking?
Right.. I always thought it was odd that High Schools don’t teach how to get and maintain a good credit rating.. when you consider how important that becomes later on...
You read wrong.. though John did have a hell of an alcohol bender the year before he was born... 1974.. known as ‘the lost year.’
I’ve thought the same thing about American History (not the crt version), the importance of the bill of rights, checks and balances among government, capitalism, the rule of law, ethics, the 10 commandments, anger management, hygiene, etc.
Give tax credits for people to take online courses, but have controls to make sure it’s them.
Two many people are uneducated.
In the beginning I did rather poorly until I caught on. He was making me think. Discouraged even in the 60s and 70s. Thank goodness for my uncle.
Maybe we should also require a course on the Constitution for all elected and appointed officials with yearly refresher training.
