Posted by sivinkit at August 25, 2004 03:27 PMRight on! Reading Divine Conspiracy, something similar was mentioned...
We believe education is about gaining knowledge (in this case, answers), hence the belief that the Sermon on the Mount was a list of 'laws' for the Kingdom, etc... yet in Jesus' time, education was about HOW TO LIVE, and so the Sermon was more like a reflection or discourse for the layperson.
Anyway, school is about filling our brains not our hearts nowadays, so...
Who really finds use for all these 'facts'? On with the questions! (Anyway it's true that when we ask questions, we don't only get answers, but we actually understand and appreciate them better!)
