And no one is actually smarter than the next. It's just like there is no thing as natural talent, everything ever known can be taught. Wisdom is based on how you learn or in what enviornment you learn. I'm going to be smarter than a person with only a 5th grade education. I will make better decisions and be wiser than them because i am educated on what is wrong.
This brings up another argument that nothing is actually what it is. Everything you've ever known is taught. I could call you a tiger and you could be a tiger if that is what you have known for your whole life. This makes it so, essentially, there is no such thing as human nature. Everything for a lack of a better word, is academic. I am wiser than a person with a 5th grade education because of academia, my opportunity to learn.
Now, you will argue that before education we were all equal yes. There it is, right there. Education equals wisdom. Natural ability and talent, to a certain extent, is false. Everything known can be taught
Not everything that is known can be taught. Every single human being has a need for food and water. Those are basic human instincts, not taught. No one taught me how to love, my friend.
ReplyDeleteHe's not saying that everything has to be taught, he is merely stating that everything can be taught
