Final note for now - and thanks for inspiring me to write about
  all of this and being agreeable [although I'm fine with
  disagreement too*tongue emoticon*] is my wish:

  I wish for education to be inspired by relativity from the core.

  Multiple overlapping perspectives considered and weighed.*

  There has been a strong movement to return to 19th century
  Classical Physics in our culture. One right way. One right
  answer. One Way Only.

  I think it's a dangerous path. Science is forever changing and
  new knowledge keeps arriving. Also, there's more than just
  Science to be considered. There are many different arena within
  which truth-values can be discovered. Experiential truth.
  Philosophical truth. Theological truth. Political truth.
  Historical truth. Economic truth. So many ways of looking at
  life.

  I believe there are truths to be found in all in some fashion
  but it's dangerous to take the simple route. "This is true. This
  is false" I think we've grown past that in our systems and paths
  that reduce everything to binary truth values can cause only one
  thing:

  War.

  Binary. Us. Them. No inbetween. You're either with us or against
  us (classic bully routine). Not good for a society.
