[b]1. That Education Can Be Bought With Money
I take your post as a joke, but I will respond anyway.
Does giving the school your money and registering for their classes guarantee that you will become more knowledgeable and wise? Absolutely not! The only way you will learn anything is if you apply yourself and actually learn what they are teaching you. The school could care less if you learn it or not - they already have your money!
Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it? – Proverbs 17:16
True learning requires a person to give their heart to it. It does not come because you attend class, or cram and pass a test or even because you receive a degree. You gain wisdom and learning by diligent application of the heart and mind to the subject at hand.
