Critical thinking is one of the top skills needed for survival, along with growing food, building shelter, starting a fire, and getting along with others. None of these are taught in schools. I had a community college prof back in the 70s who created a course called "Logic" where he taught a form of critical thinking that has served me well ever since. Certain of our politicians would like to prevent these things from being taught in order to achieve total control, i.e., the direction we are headed today. Thanks for this great heads up... I hope it resonates with a lot of readers. :D
