Schooling, danger and purity

The school has become a place where we ignites the dream of mastery. The pure embracement of knowledge grounds a dangerous mindset of becoming masters of the earth. This mindset is the human hybris to create a perfect society on earth through constant progression. But some knowledge are lacking from this school. The history of Icaros are not being told, the cosmology of Hildegard von Bingen is not part of the frame, Machiavellies Fortuna has vanished and gone, the Aristotelian Form is no longer the quality of the earth, not to mention the Platonic henoism of truth, beauty and justice. The problem behind over-consumption, unrestrained growth and depletion of natural resources is grounded in purified mindset of schooling.
