Abstract

I postulate that temptations of dehumanization get efficiently exercised by means of education. It is school, more than anything else, that is likely to perfect the art of distorting humanity with absolute sense given likelihood of fallacies on the functions and potential of mind—the entity setting mankind apart. The fallacy lies in rendering the free-thinking, creative mind artificial and mechanistic, by establishing strict correlations between intellectual traits and disciplinary or scholastic constrains, and by fixing the tangible flow of thoughts as connected with the living and spontaneous course of entities and incidents. The outcome of such practice is a constantly centralized prototype of a detached and reasoning shaped by prejudice, and it is deeply resilient to change in the minds of individuals. Keywords: pedagogy of the devil; education; learners; thinking DOI: 10.7176/JEP/11-29-09 Publication date: October 31 st 2020
