Our whole education system is calculated to produce *feelings* in us, impart them to us, instead of leaving their production to ourselves however they may turn out... Thus stuffed with imparted feelings, we appear before the bar of majority and are 'pronounced of age." Our equipment consists of "elevating feelings, lofty thoughts, inspiring maxims, eternal principles. Max Stirner
About This Quote

The education system teaches us to take on certain values and morals. This is not to say that we should not take on certain morals and values, but the system should leave those up to us. The education system should not be driven by an agenda of pushing certain morals, principles, and values onto the public. Instead, the education system should allow us to develop these values and morals as we see fit.
