My son, if you will receive my words and treasure my commandments within you, make your ear attentive to wisdom, incline you heart with understanding; for if you cry for discernment, lift your voice to understanding, if you seek her as silver and search her as for hidden treasures, then you discern the fear of the lord and discover the knowledge of god, for the lord gives wisdom from his mouth, then came knowledge and understanding, he stores up sound wisdom for the upright,

We should train our children to think critically, according to biblical standards at a very young age, such training in wisdom and judgment should pay a core roll in education in fact, solomon's proverbs aim at such things...

That we might know the things freely, given to us from god,which things we also speak, not in words taught in human wisdom, but in those taught by the spirit, combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words, but a natural man does not accept the things of god, for they are foolishness to them,and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised, but he who spiritually appraises [critically examines all things], yet he him self is appraised by no man

[driftalotapus]

Paul shunned worldly wisdom, and in place advocated the standard of gods wisdom. He called Christians in light of this standard to critically examine all things.,,,, Yet we do speak wisdom among those who are mature;a wisdom, however, not of this age; nor of the rulers of this age, who are passing away but we speak gods wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which god predestined before the ages to our glory now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit who is from god,

i remember when i was in elementary school, and one day they taught us the scientific theory. They made us memorize the steps and regurgitate the steps, and we where graded on how well we memorized the steps. Looking back, why the FUCK did they not teach the implementation of the steps?
