Considering educational philosophy from
the Ancient Greeks with their education of an elite, to Christian education
in the middle ages, to the economic utilitarian education of the
present bourgeoisie, what is next, what is best?
I think of bringing philosophical sociobiology into the humanities along with
theological materialism. This could deflate present culturally Marxist elitism, but it could also counter the pervasive utilitarian
education-for-economic-profit, while keeping the practical technical
schools for the great majority. The idea is to continue the classical
idea of creating higher men and women, but open to all, this time
centering on sociobiology, culture fair intelligence tests, and
psychometric techniques available to help us better understand human
abilities and evolution. Genes do relate to culture and it is outrageous that this fact is largely blocked in modern culture.
Cultural leadership can synthesize
philosophical sociobiology and religion. The sacred goal is the
evolution of life to the highest intelligence, beauty and character,
which defines evolving to Godhood in the cosmos...perhaps this will be the next religion, which includes the traditional Inward God of Christianity and other religions transformed to the Outward Godhood of evolution.
