Indoctrination

No, remember an expierence which only I witnessed I would not describe as indoctrination. It can only be internally verified. Example: I had a dog when I was a kid that used to catch and eat pheasants. I am the only person who ever saw exactly how he did this, he could smell them, would creep slowly ahead and when they took off junp about 6 feet into the air and bring them down by biting their tail. My expierence is not indoctrination but my telling it to you is.I think most education including science education until you get to a rather advanced level is indoctrination. Most people cannot prove many things they hold to be true. Without looking it up, prove c^2=a^2+b^2.As a geologist I had to take courses in physics, chemistry,biology and engineering, but I'm definitely not qualified to review papers or speak to their validity in these subjects. I wouldn't have a problem with someone saying I was indoctrinated in subjects other than geology.

Actually it's more like this............................Tell me what I want to hear or you will not get an "A".It does not make any difference if it is a science or not.The only person who would tell me what you are saying, has had no experience in the real world.
