Nietzsche saw the danger more than 150 years ago: education can lose its higher purpose when its chief aim becomes serving the needs of the State.
A society needs engineers, doctors, teachers, scientists, and skilled workers.
But education also has another responsibility: teaching people to reason, question assumptions, develop judgment, encounter great ideas, and decide what they believe for themselves.
That distinction matters even more today.
When we measure education mainly through employability, credentials, standardized outcomes, and economic productivity, we should ask a harder question:
Are we educating people to think, or training them to perform a function?
Nietzsche believed genuine education should develop independent minds.
Whether we agree with him or not, that question deserves to remain at the center of how we educate the next generation.
Eiropeiskās vērtības! Stambulas konvencija darbībā!! Ko “Progresīvie” centās noslēpt! Atgādinu – “Progresīvo” politika nav par cilvēkiem – tā ir par viņu atrašanos pie varas.
Nupat vēl bija "kremlini". Baigi nenostrādāja, tagad "Šķēle!!!"
Lai atceramies, kāda ekonomika, kāds atbalsts kultūrai, kāds budžets un kāds valsts parāds bija pie Šķēles.
Baigi nobiedēja.
Bet bullšits, protams.
Aivi, tās ir faktoloģiskas muļķības. Nav NEVIENA piemēra, kur migrācija no musulmaņu valstīm uz Eiropu būtu atnesusi kaut vai ekonomisku labumu. Vienīgais piemērs, kur tā varētu būt, ir Persijas līča valstis. Kur šie migranti uzreiz tiek nolikti pusverga stāvoklī, tiem nav nekādu sociālo labumu un bezmaksas medicīnas un tos regulāri profilakses nolūkos izlidina uz dzimteni. Šāda prakse par laimi/diemžēl nav savietojams ar LV kā ES dalībvalsts statusu.
It was one of the most moving moments of Pope Leo XIV’s Prayer Vigil with young people at the Stade de France.
Hundreds of actors represented France’s more than 1,700 saints and blesseds, creating a striking image of a true “army of holiness.”
Pope Leo XIV was deeply moved and, in a moment that touched everyone present, even wiped away a tear.
The moment culminated in a grand fireworks celebration.
This is beautiful
The French, including many young nuns in habits, were chanting 'Merci' and stopped to join Pope Leo XIV in singing Salve Regina outside Notre Dame in Paris
“God is the third rail of rock and roll.”
Reflecting on faith, honesty, and choosing to talk openly about God in music.
