Buddhism and Bananas

- What we learn in school are called knowledge, not wisdom. There is a huge difference between the two. The goal of going to a school is to get a job or pursuit of personal ambitions which means to get things for oneself. That goal is the opposite of what wisdom is...

- Teaching people how to learn should be one of the objectives of education. But our schools dont do that very well. More often the education system teach people the bad way of learning. I remember as I was a student, school didnt teach much about creativity or inspirating on how to solve problems with different methods. Instead, I was taught more on memorization and following a set of rules on doing things. I am not saying not to go to school.It's ur choice as an individual :-)

- I disagree with you about a few things here, but the main one is your description of the goal of schools. In my opinion the goal of a school is to teach people how to learn. Another is the pursuit of personal ambitions, for many people their ambition is to help other people for example a friend of mine is a lawyer that fights against social injustice. Her goals would not have been met without a high level of education.
