Philosophy of Education, University Protests, and Political Discourse
The philosophy of education emphasizes viewing children through the lens of trauma inflicted by parents, which supersedes traditional teaching goals. This philosophy has been evident in university protests related to the Israel-Hamas conflict, highlighting the connection between education and defining humanity. The core debate lies in whether humans are made in the image of God and fallen into sin or not, as this shapes perspectives on truth and political discourse. Some universities lean towards being overly political, with criticism mostly directed at conservative views. A conservative college president noted that students lack the maturity to engage in meaningful political conversations and need a deeper understanding of humanity and historical context. In contrast, several universities prioritize activism over wisdom, resulting in students being ill-equipped to assess complex moral and philosophical issues. This approach has led to the emergence of student activism without a strong foundation in critical thinking and intellectual exploration.
