There is education and then there is brainwashing. Too often, education is learning what the culture you happen to be born into thinks is important. What if one's interests lie elsewhere? I am very suspicious of the concept of IQ.

Good post. I wrote something recently about soaking up information versus using the information for a greater good. There are some parallels to your thoughts today. Should you wish to have a look: Academic Vanity.

Um.....I have another, comment.....er....observation....but I think I'll save it for when we talk.
It's likely deriving from my mind not being completely awake yet....but maybe not.

I'm not sure, but I think I would say it is the opposite?
Education is something that can be learned. IQ is something that just is....like common sense.
Does that make sense?
I'm here if you want to talk.
