Re: Most education is Indoctrination

I think most education including science education until you get to a rather advanced level is indoctrination.
That's not indoctrination. That's being practical.
​
Indoctrination usually includes "swallow it or I'll beat it into you" while education, especially science, mostly entails "take it or leave it".
​
Basically, indoctrination requires that the indoctrinated not be exposed to reality while education is an encouragement to explore the real world.
