Knowing how to play the game, keeps you in the game!
Still to this day, the news/nasa speaks of the speed of light...so they evidently didn't buy into the idea that light does not move. Since both sources are used to keep people stupid, it only makes sense they would ignore many facts of nature.
The idea that all is FOLLY, only seeks to explain after your dead, all you accumulated is just that, a folly of life. Learning and accumulating keeps life interesting and a reasont to continue.....unless a person is truely free, living in the wilds, under the stars with a FREE MIND, free of all mans education found in books....only the man that has never read, never picked up a pencil, never put on a piece of clothing, etc. could understand freedom, while the educated mind seeks MORE and MORE....
Just because a human baby can learn any human lanuage its parents speak, does not mean it wants to learn every language ever spoken, but the human brain has such capacity to do so.........so where does one draw the line on such education? I think the old monks tried to explain that "education" and even having a mate, takes time away from the mind to concentrate on God.So in fact, they spend their mental abilities on God, while others pick most any subject on this planet to learn or specialize in and at the end, when the last breath has been taken; they suggest we will see it all as folly of being a human.....and with the subject of education, Edison proved to him self, that our "spirit" knows "ALL", he tappd into his spirit to create all his discovers, NOTHING NEW UNDER THIS SUN as the old bible monks pointed out....and since our SPIRIT ALREADY KNOWS ALL, would it not seem like folly at our death here on earth, to realize we spent 80 years trying to "LEARN".....................learn things we have already known for ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To me, the argument of the speed of light would be this.....the speed of light is 'my" ability to recognize the alumination of light....because ALL sources of light that I CAN NOT SEE with my human eyes, is light that is meaningless to me! To study and understand all the differant light may impact life its self, but our eyes can never see such lights, thus making them not part of life, except for those that read the theories of man in books, written by authors that can either prove or theorize how things work and those that theorize are always proved wrong by the next fellow that blows his horn louder and if the false horn is blown long enough, some actually believe it as truth, even though the human eyes, ears, fingers can never prove it is true.
Myself, I believe 90% of what we learn in 12 years of public school is not only forgotten, but never used ever in life...in fact, schools are an intitution to create jobs for teachers. What anyone wants to learn, can / should be easy to learn, while schools and colleges all make it hard, forcing students to learn a lot of crap that is meaningless to them, but only exist so teachers can have a job.
We all know, no matter what you learned in school, if you decide to get a job by working for a BOSS, you will do as your boss says, or loose your job. Working for your self, allows you to work by the facts you believe in the most and that is a huge step towards freedom....NOT BEING TOLD by a BOSS what to believe.
Education is a wonderful way to spend time on earth...ONLY $$$$ forces so many to work at evil jobs..if it were not for $$$$, there would be very few evil humans.
