How Indoctrination = Education

Mark Windows – Windows on the World Jan 15, 2019

Quotes from those who have influenced modern education:
Johann Gottlieb Fichte (1762—1814) Philosopher and influence on the education system:
“If the system is successful, its fruit will be as follows: “Its pupil goes forth at the proper time as a fixed and unchangeable machine.”
Bertrand Russell: In the book “The Impact of Science on Society, published in 1951, the following quotes are found: “Education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished.” (Page 50 – The Intended Result of Education)
“Gradually, by selective breeding, the congenital differences between the rulers and ruled will increase until they become almost different species. A revolt of the plebs would become as unthinkable as an organised insurrection of sheep against the practice of eating mutton.”
