I'm starting to notice an imbalance when it comes to education. Not that I feel there was a lack in my own- after all, what more can they teach you when they don't know anything themselves- but that there is an emphasis on education in other places that there isn't where I am

There are universities in my place of origin. You learn a great deal from learned professors, although they do not know of all.

[thebestnose]

What can't they teach you?

[failedcreator]

They will not teach what they do not believe or do not approve of. Entire schools of thought have been left to rot, merely because they are not in fashion at the time.

[thebestnose]

Thoughts can be in fashion?

[failedcreator]

They can indeed. I have harboured most unfashionable thoughts in my time and read most unfashionable academics.

[thebestnose]

What thoughts are< in fashion?

[failedcreator]

There remains tension between the views of science and that of the church. But that is only in my time. In many others, all I think appears quite unfashionable.

[thebestnose]

Ah. Religion. Of course.

[failedcreator]

Yes. It prevents the study of many things, which is perhaps wise.
