All right, friends, Greg Kogel here your host stand to reason and thank you for being part of the show here and

Today is a pretty much a open mic calls day. I'm doing off schedule and partly because I'm

Taking some time off this summer getting my fishing rods ready

Looking forward to rusticating in order the Wisconsin for a short while and

therefore I don't want to leave you as orphans so we're making sure you have something

Available from me while I'm gone

I was at an event recently and the speaker was talking about the inability of people in general

To to think reasonably or rationally about things and that in the school system

They are not students are simply not taught clear thinking certainly the public school system maybe some private schools and home scores are

characteristic

Characteristically engaging the logic aspect of

Education of their young people which is great the reason they don't teach us in public schools and I don't know if this is conscious or not

But it's just a thought I had is because they wouldn't be able to teach a whole bunch of other nonsense that they teach if they taught people clear thinking

And

Anyway, so we asked how many people have taken a course in logic and it turned out in this particular church there were

Quite a number of people that raised their hands that they had taken some logic and I didn't raise my hand because I've never taken a course in logic

Now I employ some of the principles of careful thinking and

Partly because not because I've taken a whole course in this and I can do symbolic logic and all that other stuff

But I understand some basic things about how these things work and frankly I was introduced to them more in a caught

Not taught

Environment and I took a course many years ago
